Hi Michael,

We have two installations, one on windows and one on linux/Ubuntu.
We have same issue on both:
When we set the security to standard (via console/prfiles etc.) we cannot login
with admin/pass123.
(we thought that admin would be aut. part of manager role..)
How should we do this (to be able to remotely upload data)
(ie do we need to set manager password somewhere and use THAT? With admin user?)
We definitely have an issue with the login mechanism, see MARMOTTA-534
for further details, and has nothing to do with the platform where it is
installed. Please, provide details to the issue and then we can try to
address it.
In the meantime, for temporally bypassing the issue, if your instance is
running on a protected environment (i.e., a machine running behind a
firewall in your intranet) you can disable security by executing the
following request from the same machine where Marmotta is running:
curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '["false"]'
http://localhost:8080/marmotta/config/data/security.enabled
You are able to do that because Marmotta comes with the simple profile
enabled by default, which allows read access from everywhere and write
access only from localhost or other local interfaces. You can find some
documentation about the Security Profiles at:
http://marmotta.apache.org/platform/security-module.html
Please, take into account that having security disabled allows everybody
to perform write requests (POST/PUT/DELETE/PATCH) without
authentication. You can keep this configuration if it easier for you.
But I have to insist this setup is _not_ recommended for instances with
open access.
In practice you should always keep security enabled, switching to the
'standard' security profile for every installation that requires
external access beyond a local demo. But I guess the authentication
issue would remain, even with that profile enabled. Therefore, if your
installation fits with the restrictions described above, you can have
whatever profile while you keep security disabled. Otherwise we have to
take a closer look to the issue and related problems reported to
MARMOTTA-534.
Hope that helps.
Cheers,
