Access Denied while trying to delete document

In SharePoint 2013, if the user ONLY has contribute access to a library, (user does not have access to the site) and if the user tries to delete a file, it throws an error message.
Access Denied: You do not have permission to perform this action or access this resource.
permission inheritance is broken on library level, Contribute Permission does have these options checked delete files, versions, and view application pages, but can not delete file.
If read access is provided to the site level, then user can delete file, why is that ?
using SharePoint 2013 Standard Edition. 

Does the user get the error both from the ribbon and from the "...", "..." menu?
If a user has the Delete Items permission, but not the Use Remote Interfaces permission then they can delete files from the ribbon, but when attempting to delete from the content dropdown (Edit Control Block) will get Access Denied.
I'd like to try to duplicate your problem...
Is versioning enabled? Major or major and minor versions?
Is this consistent with all document types? .txt, pdf, docx, etc.
Is the file in a Document Set?
Is there a workflow running on the documents?
Is the document assigned to a custom Content Type?
Any other settings?

  • Error 406 access denied while trying to Add Windows 2008 HV host in SCVMM 2008.

    I am trying to add Windows 2008 HV host in SCVMM 2008. While adding host i am getting error message...
    Error (406)
    Access
    has been denied while contacting the server <server name>. 
    Recommended
    Action
    1.
    Verify that the specified user account has administrative privileges on <server name>.
    2.
    Verify that DCOM access, launch, and activation permissions are enabled on <server name> for the Administrators group. Use dcomcnfg.exe to modify
    permissions, and then try the operation again.
    I have already done DCOM security modification for my user. I am able to RDP or any file sharing HV host from SCVMM machine. My user is member of local administrator for both the machines. 
    Before that i have added one Windows 2008 HV (Core) successfully and 2 ESX host in same SCVMM machine. 
    Any Help would be greatly appreciated.

    Has anyone found a fix for this? I've been troubleshooting this issue for 4 days now. I've unjoined/rejoined the host to the domain, deleted SCVMM certificate, given permissions (out the wahzoo) in COM/Access Permissions, all updates installed, firewall
    is off (I even tried turning it on and configuring program/port access), I've tried with 3 different domain accounts that are a member of the local Administrators group.
    The other day I managed to get the host added (don't ask me how) but then all the VM's were in status 'Host not responding' so I couldn't even manage them. So I removed it and now can't get the host added again. I'm using SCVMM 2008 R2 SP1 and the problem
    host is Server 2008 R2 SP1 x64.
    Error (406)
    Access has been denied while contacting the server xxxxxxxx.domain.com.  
    Recommended Action
    1. Verify that the specified user account has administrative privileges on xxxxxxx.domain.com.
    2. Verify that DCOM access, launch, and activation permissions are enabled on xxxxxxx.domain.com for the Administrators group. Use dcomcnfg.exe to modify permissions, and then try the operation again.
    I was getting this error after I got the host added:
    Error (2910)
    VMM does not have appropriate permissions to access the resource C:\Windows\system32\qmgr.dll on the xxxxxxxx.domain.com server.
     (Access is denied (0x80070005))
    Recommended Action
    Ensure that Virtual Machine Manager has the appropriate rights to perform this action.

  • Folder Access Denied when trying to delete folder

    I am using Windows 2008 server.  I have a folder that I had setup as a share but now I want to delete it.  I am logged in with a domain account that is a member of the local Administrators group.  When I try to delete the folder I get a "Folder
    Access Denied" message followed by "You need permission to perform this action. You require permission from Administrators to make changes to this folder". 
    Then I am presented the options of Try Again or Cancel.  I select Try Again but again get the "Folder Access Denied" message.  How can a member of the local Administrators group be denied access to deleting a folder that is on that same server
    that I am logged into?

    Hi,
    I would like to suggest you run the following commands with elevated privilege.
    takeown /f {Folder Path}
    cacls { Folder Path} /G administrators:F
    Note: please replace {Folder Path} with the real folder path.
    After that, please try to delete the folder again.
    Does it work?

  • After connnecting Iphone to iTunes ( while trying to delete U2's album ), all of my songs have been removed. How can I get them back?

    After connnecting Iphone to iTunes ( while trying to delete U2's album that Apple forced on all iOS users. ), all of my songs have been removed. How can I get them back?
    I dont use iTunes since I have a windows laptop. I use CopyTrans , a program that basically emulates iTunes but is simpler. However it wouldnt allow me to delete U2s album from my phone. 
    After removing one song iTunes "updated" my phone's song list but in reality just deleted every song on it ( except for U2's atrocious album !!) 
    Is there any way I can get my songs back? 
    When I start up iTunes and CopyTrans  the songs are still there. However when I attempt to play them they will not play?
    Thanks

  • Photoshop cs4 access denied when trying to install from disc in Windows 7 64bit.

    Photoshop cs4 access denied when trying to install from disc in Windows 7 64bit. I tried it in
    safe mode and it starts to install but get an error there as well.
    What do I do?

    So when you put the disk in it won't run correctly? When the disk is inserted you should have a window pop up with 2 options. 1 to install and the other to see what is on the disk. Choose to explore or open the disk. Go to the CS4 folder where the photoshop .exe file is (that will run the setup), right click on the .exe file and choose run as Admin and it should start. See if it will install. If not then read below.
    I am not sure how far you got in the install before so chances are you will have to run the CS4 cleanup utility. 2 levels to run at but don't use 1 or 2 just type in the number 3.
    http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html
    You may need to run the windows installer cleanup utility too
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
    Before you try to reinstall the software ensure that adobe reader is not installed. If it is remove it. It has caused issues in the past with vista and CS4 installs.
    Also turn off windows Defender and any anti-virus software. You can keep UAC on in Windows 7.
    During the CS4 install at 90 percent it will almost stop and may take 5 to 10 mins to finish. This is normal. What a pain huh......
    After install is finished, reboot
    After reboot, go to the CS4 64 bit or 32 bit icon (depends on 32 or 64 bit Windows 7) in start area, right click on CS4 64 bit (if you have windows 7 64 bit) and choose properties, compatibility tab and then check run as Admin at the bottom area. Hit apply, ok to close out.
    Now start CS4 and run the updater.

  • Error while trying to delete the universe from CMS

    Dear All,
    I am getting "Unable to reconnect to the CMS XXXXXXXXX. The session has been logged off or has expired" error while trying to delete any universe from the CMS. I tried restarting tomcat but it didnt work. I am unable to delete any universe from CMS. We have BO XI R2 SP2 environment on Windows 2003 Server.
    regards,
    Umair

    SAP NOTE - 1199539 gives a possible solution to this problem:
    When attempting to delete or migrate a universe, the following error message appears:
    "Unable to reconnect to the CMS BUSOBJDV.ACSAD.NCSU.EDU. The session has been logged off or has expired."
    Environment
    BusinessObjects Enterprise Premium XI Release 2 SP1 CHF15
    JDK version 1.4.2_08
    Tomcat version is the same as that shipped with the product
    Cause
    The universes and connection pages are special (AFAIK) compared to the other pages because they are pure JSP, while most of the other Central Management Console (CMC) pages still go though the CMC and use COM/C++ code unaffected by the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). If the JVM has not been updated against Eastern Daylight Savings Time (EDST), it may calculate the incorrect time locally, and problems may occur with token expiry or validation.
    Resolution
    Update the Tomcat JDK to JDK 1.5.0_11 for EDST:
    1. Go to the Microsoft web site and verify if you have the time zone update installed.
    2. Download JDK 1.5.0_11.
    3. Install JDK 1.5.0_11 on your server.
    4. Modify the JAVA_HOME here:
    C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat\bin\setenv.bat
    as follows:
    set JAVA_HOME=C: \Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_11\jre
    5. In Java Virtual Machine and Java Class Path, modify JAVA properties for Tomcat (Start > Programs > Tomcat > Tomcat Configuration > Java). Replace the default Business Objects JDK 1.4 directory:
    C:\Program Files\Business Objects\j2sdk1.4.2_08
    with JDK 1.5.0_11:
    C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_11
    6. Go to Windows Time Zone (double-click Windows time) then on the Time Zone tab, select the automatically adjust clock for day light saving changes check box against EST time zone.
    7. Restart Tomcat and the Central Management Server (CMS) and, if possible, reboot your computer.
    Hope this works anyone facing this problem on Windows servers.
    Not sure what the solution is for BO instances running on Solaris. We have business objects/Weblogic running on a solaris server. I tried just changing java home to jdk1.5.0_12 but this didn't work.

  • I receive "Database access denied" when trying to add component 4543BD

    I receive "Database access denied" when trying to add component 4543BD to my schematic. This component was added from a previous version. I'm using Multisim version 12.0.0  Student edition.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi Diarra,
    I checked my database and  the  4543 is not in the Student Edition. If you opened a schematic that was created in a higher version such as the Educaiton Edition and copied the part to your database, when you place this part you will get the access denied message. 
    Attached is a schematic with the part, you can open it and build you circuit around it.

  • Access denied while opening any PDF the second time / Zugriff verweigert beim zweiten Öffnen eines beliebigen PDF

    Reader produces "Access denied" while opening any PDF the second time. A LogOut/LogIn or restart is necessary to open a PDF again successfully. User works with a PC (Win7). The file is located on the desktop in a Windows 2008/2012 AD, user profile on networkshare. The same procedure with a file located on any other networkshare or locally on harddisk works without error. Analysis with processmonitor indicates that the file seems to load and then is cancelled for some unknown reason. The problem is somehow growing, beginning with 1 PC and exists now also in our Citrix environment (2 users). Access rights seem to ok and the same on all tested shares (full Access or Change rights).
    Der Reader bringt den Fehler "Zugriff verweigert", wenn man das zweite mal ein PDF öffnen will. Dabei ist der Fehler völlig unabhängig davon, ob man das gleiche oder ein anderes PDF öffnen will. Um wieder erfolgreich ein PDF zu öffnen, ist ein Ab- und Anmelden bzw. ein Neustart des PCs (Win7) nötig. Umgebung ist eine Windows 2008/2012 AD, Profil liegt im Netz. Der Fehler tritt nur bei PDFs auf, die auf dem User-Desktop liegen. Sind die Dateien irgendwo anders im Netz oder lokal auf der Festplatte, kommt der Fehler nicht. Eine Analyse mit dem Prozessmonitor zeigt, dass das Laden des PDFs irgendwann gecancelt wird, warum auch immer. Das Problem scheint sich auch langsam auszuweiten. Es hat mit einem PC begonnen und tritt nun auch in unserer Citrix Umgebung bei bis jetzt 2 Usern auf. Die Berechtigungen scheinen überall ok und gleich zu sein (Volluzgriff oder Ändern).

    And how are you spawning the php instances? I don't see that in the daemons array anywhere.
    EDIT: It looks like the info in that page is no longer using pre-spawned instances, but lighttpd adaptive-spawn. The documentation has been made inconsistent it looks like.
    You will note that with pre-spawned information, the config looks different[1].
    You need to do one or the other, not both (eg. choose adaptive-spawn, or pre-spawn..not both).

  • Access denied while manually removing reader 8.x

    While following the instructions for manually removing Adobe Reader 8.x as posted here:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/400/kb400769.html
    when I try to delete AcroIEHelper.dll, AcroPDF.dll, and pdfshell.dll as per the instructions, I get "Access denied".
    I am running XP SP3, logged on under administrator, running in diagnostic mode, and explorer.exe has been terminated.  I have also tried deleting these in safe mode under the same conditions.
    I'm not sure what has these locked.  Any suggestions as to what I should try?
    Thanks.

    Mike,
    Thank you for responding!  I tried running that on a testbed/sandbox machine to test it out before using this fix on a live machine, and it resulted in me NOT being able to reinstall any Adobe Reader, any version, at all.  When I tried to reinstall 8.1.x or 9.x, the download manager just reported that it was "unable to install" with not much else to go on.
    It also left the Adobe Reader add-on installed in Firefox, and there was no way to uninstall it.
    I'd love to try using the MS Installer Clean-up tool if I could understand exactly how I should proceed with it - exactly what steps I need to take.
    Can you help me here?  Again, I appreciate your response and look forward to getting this problem behind me!
    Thanks!

  • Access Denied when trying to access shared folders on the server with administrative privileges

    I have problem accessing shared folder on the server machine from Windows 7 machine even if I try to access it with administrative privileges (server Administrator account). I will try now to explain better my situation.
    In my company, we have small network infrastructure with one main server machine (HP ProLiant server) with Windows Server 2012 R2 installed and couple of desktop machines. The network is administrated by me.
    On Windows Server we have installed and setup DHCP, DNS, Remote Access and Routing, File and Storage and Active Directory services. Desktop machines are having Windows 8.1 Pro, Windows 8.1 or Windows 7 Home Premium installed on them. In Active
    Directory I have created domain, User groups and Users for employees in my company and so far, I didn't added desktop machines to the domain.
    Also, I've created one folder on the server which should contain different projects data for network users and I have set access permissions and security for this folder and shared it on the network (I've added couple of users to one user group and I
    gave Full control to this group over this folder). When I try to access this folder from network, I've been asked for login credentials (normally), where I just type in one of users username and password who has been given access permissions to (who is member
    of group with full control over the folder). From Windows 8.1 Pro and Windows 8.1 machines I can access and work on this folder without any problems.
    The problem comes with Windows 7 machines. On Windows 7 machines (I have also tried this with Windows 7 Ultimate in VMWare) I can access server, I can see its shares, but as soon I try to access folder I've created for projects, I get Access Denied message
    with request for User login credentials. Whichever user account I use (even servers main Administrator account) I keep getting this message over and over and I'm unable to access it at all.
    I have also tried to access the server through VPN (from local or outside) but I'm getting the same error again. Also I've tried to add these Windows 7 machines to the domain and login with domain user but the result is the same. Turned off both firewalls
    (on server and desktop machines, which I know is unnecessary, but lets try it), still same case. I've tried couple more things with registry editor on desktop machines which I found on different forums and websites but still no luck. And now I don't know
    what else I can do.
    Does anyone knows what's the problem here, have I set something wrong, have not set something I should?

    Hi MeipoXu,
    thanks for your response. I will first answer on your question.
    Yes, the main issue is that we can see the folder when we access the server but we cannot access its contents from Windows 7 machines. I have tried on two machines, one with Windows 7 Home Premium version and the other one with Windows 7 Ultimate version
    and the situation is the same.
    As you recommended, I've checked Network Discovery and File and Printer Sharing and the situation is next: File and Printer Sharing is turned on all layers (Private, Public and Domain) while Network Discovery is off for all layers too. I don't know if this
    is normal thing but Network Discovery cannot be turned on in Windows Server (I'm able to select Turn on Network Discovery and apply the changes, but when I get back to this settings page, I again see that it's turned off, so I assume this can't be changed
    at all).
    I also tried with icacls in command prompt and everything seems to be ok there regarding permissions. Share permissions are set to Full control to Everyone and Security permissions are set to Full control only for Administrators and the user group I've created
    for employees in my company. The confirmation for this is that on Windows 8 machines you can access this folder without any problem and without getting any message connected with access permissions with any user account within this user group. This share is
    created through File and Storage Services service in Server Manager panel.
    And then something came up on my mind. I went in Server Manager to check shared folder settings in File and Storage Services and under Settings page I saw that "Encrypt data access" has been enabled (I enabled this option because I thought
    I will get more security with this option). I asked my self what would happen if I disable it, tried it and now everything works ok on Windows 7 machines too. Now I assume that Windows 7 doesn't have this feature implemented or there are some
    settings which needs to be set on Windows 7 machines to make this encryption thing work with Windows Server. So basically, I will let this feature off for now until I find out more about it and how to implement it to work with all operating systems.
    I want to thank you once more for your kind help!
