  • Root cause of error " Access denied. You do not have permission to perform this action or access this resource" - workflow - SharePoint 2013

    Good evening, technet community
    I hope you are doing well.
    When configuring my SharePoint workflow, I encounter the problem below:
    Problem Description:
    Let's say my domain is: test.com, my group user is: test\group , my user is: test\user1
    Except an admin account with full control at both "Web Application" and "Site Collection", all others account all have problem when creating a list item. After creating a list item, the workflow status is "cancelled" immediately
    with the following message:
    RequestorId: 262a35e4-99f4-40f0-929b-5d04b415f147. Details: System.ApplicationException: HTTP 401 {"Transfer-Encoding":["chunked"],"X-SharePointHealthScore":["0"],"SPClientServiceRequestDuration":["10"],"SPRequestGuid":["262a35e4-99f4-40f0-929b-5d04b415f147"],"request-id":["262a35e4-99f4-40f0-929b-5d04b415f147"],"X-FRAME-OPTIONS":["SAMEORIGIN"],"MicrosoftSharePointTeamServices":["15.0.0.4420"],"X-Content-Type-Options":["nosniff"],"X-MS-InvokeApp":["1;

    {"error":{"code":"-2147024891, System.UnauthorizedAccessException","message":{"lang":"en-US","value":"Access denied. You do not have permission to perform
    this action or access this resource."}}} at Microsoft.Activities.Hosting.Runtime.Subroutine.SubroutineChild.Execute(CodeActivityContext context) at System.Activities.CodeActivity.InternalExecute(ActivityInstance instance, ActivityExecutor executor,
    BookmarkManager bookmarkManager) at System.Activities.Runtime.ActivityExecutor.ExecuteActivityWorkItem.ExecuteBody(ActivityExecutor executor, BookmarkManager bookmarkManager, Location resultLocation)
    - The workflow is still fail even I assign "full control" to my users group "test\group" – at Site Collection level.
    Surprisingly, I have successfully found a solution for this error message. However, I still have some points that I do not clearly understand. Let's start with my solution first.
    Solution:
    *** i. Assign permission policy at Web Application level – Central Admin site ***
    1. Central Administration ==> Application management
    ==> Manage Web application 
    2. Go to "permission policy", then create a new permission level. This permission level contains all "edit item" permission.
    3. Select "user policy", then I assign it directly to my user account: test\user1.
    *** ii. Assign "edit item" permission at Site Collection level ***
    1. Site Setting ==> Site permission
    2. Assign "Edit" permission to my test\group.
    (Actually I removed all permissions of my user group at Site Collection level. It seem my group has inherited permission from Web Application level, is that correct? )
    *** iii. Create a new list item and workflow runs ……. ***
    ==> My question is:
    1. Why I cannot assign permission to my users group - "test\group" -
     at "Web Application" level? Instead I have to assign permission policy for each users, one by one?
    2. Could you please let me know how to collect full detail error message of workflow status?
    Thank you very much! Have a nice weekend.

    Thank you for your very detail response.
    Point 1: Yes my 2 service: user profile & profile sync service are running. I performed "full synchronization" as well. Actually i've tried 3 another action plans before coming up with the solution i posted:
    *** Actions completed ***
    1. Activate the feature: workflow can use app permissions.
    Site actions > Site Settings > Site features >activate the feature below:
     Workflows can use app permissions
    2.
    Refresh trusted security token services metadata feed
    Get-SPTimerJob
    "RefreshMetadataFeed"
    | Start-SPTimerJob
    - then restart the machine.
    3. Start full user profile synchronization.
    Point 2:
    - Yes my user had Edit permission at workflow task list + list affected by workflow.
    I have just remove all permissions of my user at "Site Collection" level. However, when i show my user permissions at my workflow task list and my users still have "Edit" Permission ( assigned at Web Application level. These permissions
    still exist even after my workflow task list stop inheriting permission).
    ==> the problems probably belongs to "permission" at "Site Collection level". It seems "permission level at my Site Collection does not work". All users accounts are also suffer from the same issues except farm admin account
    ( which has full control at Web Application level).
    I would appreciate if your guys can guide me how to make "permission" at my "Site Collection level" work again?
    Thank you very much.

  • "changes to the distribution list membership cannot be saved. you do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object"

    Running Exchange 2010/latest updates on Windows 2008 R2 servers.
    When I create a new DL that I want someone to manage, they received the following message when trying to add/remove from the DL:
    "changes to the distribution list membership cannot be saved.  you do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object"
    I have followed everything in "http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2009/11/18/453251.aspx" with no luck
    Any suggestions?

    Piggybacking off of the discussion above, with our deployment of Exchange 2007, we created a set of web-based tools that allowed people to create Exchange Resources including distribution lists.  To allow multiple people to manage the lists for a given
    department, we programmatically created a group, which is populated with one or more users from the "resource department".  We then set the following AD permissions to allow members of the group to manage membership of departmental distribution lists:
    Add-ADPermission -User DepartmentalGroup -AccessRights ReadProperty, WriteProperty -Properties 'Member' -DomainController dc.contoso.com
    Fast forward to Exchange 2010 and the landscape has changed with Exchange 2010's implementation of Role Based Access Control and I'm struggling to come up with a way to programmatically allow a group of users to manage distribution list membership for a
    subset of distribution lists - note that we have approximately 75 departments, with each having its own set of coordinators who should be able to manage distribution lists for their department but not lists created by other departments.  The specific
    error we receive in Outlook when attempting to modify group membership is the same as the title of this thread - "Changes to the distribution list membership cannot be saved.  You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object". 
    I implemented the settings referred to at
    http://sysadmin-talk.org/2010/06/omg-allowing-end-users-to-manage-distribution-group-membership-in-exchange-2010-2/ which details the process of creating a new management role and revoking the role's ability to create new distribution lists and remove distribution
    lists (which we want because we want those actions to be performed using our web tools). 
    All that to say that the ultimate problem we have is that the above relies on the "ManagedBy" field of a distribution list (viewable by Get-DistributionList Listname | fl *ManagedBy*) to determine group ownership.  When "ManagedBy" is set to a user,
    the user CAN edit a distribution list's membership from Outlook and OWA.  When "ManagedBy" is set to a group, members of the group are UNABLE to edit the membership of the distribution list via Outlook or Outlook Web Access/ECP.   Furthermore,
    Set-DistributionGroup does not allow you to specify a list of users to assign to the ManagedBy field.  However, if "ManagedBy" was set to a specific user and that user logs in to the Exchange Control Panel and adds additional "owners" of the distribution
    list, which I can then see from EMS - both the original owner and any additional owners added can in turn modify group membership for the list using Outlook or Outlook Web Access/ECP.
    My questions:
    1) Is it "expected" behavior that while I can assign a group to the "ManagedBy" property of distribution list, members of that group are still unable to edit the group membership?  ...or is there a fix for the behavior I'm seeing?
    2) Can multiple values be assigned to the "ManagedBy" property when using Set-DistributionList - ex: Set-DistributionList DLName -ManagedBy:user1,user2
    3) Any other suggestions?
    Thanks,
    -Lance

  • I keep getting "You need permission to perform this action"

    I keep getting "You need permission to perform this action" when trying to write to a 1TB FAT32 drive attached and shared properly 
    I am having exactly the same problem with with the permission blocker on all my computers. I also have full owner/admin (whatever you want to call full ownership rights) for my 2 PCs and 1 laptop. All are able to connect to the internet and use and extract files off of the 1T external hard drive (which is connected into the router as a network drive with a USB cable).
    But... When I attempt to write "TO" the drive, that..is when the retarded 'no permission box' comes up.
    I have tried differant users, matching names and passwords to the accessing computer and with users being members of the admin group with read and write access but no luck.
    All of the linksys support only gives XP examples. i am running 64bit windows 7
    Either exactly the same thing, or something very similar was happening when I 1st hooked up this router almost a year ago. The tech guy over the phone from linksys fixed it by installing a patch the same way they would do a hard install of the firmware ( I'm guessing it was an early version of a win7 patch). Hmm...  Strange that there are postings of this problem I am once again facing, BUT... NO solution posted. Curious; I deffinately would have thought this problem would have by now, after all this time, been posted on the FAQ with a simple fix. Obviously my findings for a solution are MUCH less than expected.
    From: 1st time dissapointed in linksys.
                         >(
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Woo Hoo! I have found the solution to this problem on my own after MANY, MANY hours with tech support from Symantic(for Norton360), Cisco Linksys(for the router), and Network Magic (for the software that comes with the Linksys wireless router). Symantic was only able to uninstall norton and reinstall it and said there's nothing wrong with their software and that there's nothing more they can do.
    Network Magic basically did and said the same.
    And... Last but not least, Cisco. Cisco Linksys Basically did the same as the others for the firmware but, they then came up with the bright conclution that it must be a defective unit and they will send me a new one.
    Well... That was not good enough for me; all of my equiptment (including the router) has been working great since the 1st setup about a year ago.
    Well... Here's the way I fixed it:
    Once the network drive is mapped properly, go into 'computer', right click on your network drive, choose properties, open the security tab, click the edit button, and there you go. Now you should see the account that keeps telling you the no permission from it. If it is there as it should be, click on that account to highlight it and then pick the permissions you whish to have. Click apply and ok. You should now be able to edit, add, remove, etc. your files now.
    My only problem with this is: Where did this account come from and why did it default without editing permissions, AND MORE IMPORTANTLY (you'll find out if you try to do this) WHY CAN I NOT REMOVE THIS ACCOUNT. When/If I find out the answers to these final questions, I will post it here. So, if you are iterested in this situation, check back. I'm deturmined to get to the bottom of this.
    For now, I'm gong to let Cisco send me the new unit because this mysterious new account may be a hacker that has entered our machines through the router somehow. If this is the case, my theory for how this can happen is: all linksys units come default with easy access with a user/pass as admin/admin. I would have to strongly suggest that you go into your router cofiguration under the administrations tab; personalize the router password AND under the storage tab; in the 'User Management' section, click on the 'Modify' button and personalize the admin password(make sure to write down your new passwords and what they goto

  • Microsoft Outlook 2010 The delegates settings were not saved correctly. Cannot activate Send-on-behalf-of list. You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object.

    I am trying to assign delegation to a user and I receive the following message.
    The delegates settings were not saved correctly.  Cannot activate Send-on-behalf-of list.  You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object.
    We are using 2010 for the server and client.  There are only specific mailboxes that this is happening for after being migrated from Lotus Notes.  The user can use their mailfile fine however it is just the delegation that appears corrupted somehow. 
    I'm not sure how to fix this.  I have checked the access through the security tab in ad and that looks fine.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I did some more digging and I solved it.
    This would be the solution:
    In Active Directory Users and Computers
    -Click on VIEW
    -Click on ADVANCE FEATURES  (this is important otherwise you won't see
    the complete list in the next steps)
    -Click on the USERS container
    -Find the problem user's account
    -Right mouse the account and click on PROPERTIES
    -Click on the SECURITY tab
    -In the top box, click on the SELF account
    -In the bottom portion of the screen make sure the READ PERSONAL
    INFORMATION  & WRITE PERSONAL INFORMATION  should both be checked for
    ALLOW
    If you can compare the permissions for 'SELF' with another user you probably should set them accordingly to be safe. I noticed that for the user where setting delegates (SOB) did
    not work, more than those 2 permissions were missing.
    Good luck!

  • Cannot move the items. You don't have appropriate permission to perform this operation.

    Recently, I upgraded outlook from 2007 to 2010, but I got a problem that I cannot move any mails to personal folder and the error msg is "Cannot move the items. You don't have appropriate permission to perform this operation.".Even I create a new personal
    folder in 2010 and try to move mails to it, I still get that error message. 
    Can anyone help me out please?
    Thanks so much in advance.

    I've experienced the same thing and was unable to find this key that Tony mentioned.  After searching numerous sites, i found this instruction set below and tried it and it worked.  Per my case, the key PstDisableGrow was set to 1 under ...\Software\Polices\...
    instead.  I disabled it and bam, it worked.  Give this a try...
    Your System Administrator has either enforced a group policy to prevent pst files growing in size or a registry key is present preventing the growth of pst files. One of the following
    registry keys will be present based on your version of office (11.0 for Office 2003, 12.0 for Office 2007 and 14.0 for Office 2010). The example below is for Office 2010 (14.0):
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\PST  - DWord Value: 'PstDisableGrow', Value: 1
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\PST  - DWord Value: 'PstDisableGrow', Value: 1
    Best of luck!

  • Can not save the attachment you don't have appropriate permission to perform this operation

    i opened outlook.exe file then i have an error like cannot save the attachments you don't have appropriate permission to perform this operation so please solve my error 

    Hi,
    Before this issue occurred, what did you perform in Outlook?
    Based on the error message, it seems like a permission issue. Try to run Outlook as administrator, check if the issue persists.
    Please also try to start Outlook in Safe Mode. Sometimes the 3rd-party add-ins will cause the Outlook startup issue, run Outlook in Safe Mode will disable these add-ins:
    Press Win + R, type "outlook.exe /safe" in the blank box, press Enter.
    If there is no issue starting Outlook in Safe Mode, consider to disable the suspicious add-ins from FILE -> Options -> Add-Ins.
    If the issue still exists, please send me the image of the error message and let me know in detail the steps you performed before this issue occurred. To protect your private information, please send the image to our email address:

  • Outlook 2010 you don't have appropriate permission to perform this operation.

    I have a user who when they go to File > Open > Open Outlook data file they get an error "you don’t have appropriate permission to perform this operation. " I've completed the following troubleshooting steps: 1) Repaired Office, 2) Created
    a new Windows Profile, 3) Created a new Outlook Profile, 4) Elevated user rights to an admin, 4) Re-installed Office 2010 5) Confirmed there is no GPO or registry setting preventing me from selecting this option. This is on a Windows XP SP3
    machine with Office 2010.

    I have the same problem as CTDHelpdesk and have been unable to find an answer anywhere.  Immediately after choosing "Open Outlook Data File" Outlook 2013 (Win7) moves to the Outlook Today view and issues the popup "You don't have appropriate permission
    to perform this operation".  NB this is before any file selection dialog appears, so it could not relate to any particular data file or location, as none has been selected.  
    I have previously opened these data files in this version of Outlook 2013, and I can't think of anything that might have changed.  In fact, inconveniently, while trying to fix this problem I closed two open PST files that I use frequently and now can't
    reopen them because of this error. 
    I've tried step (c) above.  (a) and (b) don't apply because I can't even select a PST file. I've also tried "Run as Administrator".  

  • Error : You 're not permitted to perform this action - Absence Report

    Dear all, I need some help here,
    My user need to open "Inventory in Warehouse" report. Basically, he could open aforementioned report (parameter selection), but after he click "OK" button, SAP subsequently show error message as below
    You 're not permitted to perform this action - Absence Report
    I have already grant "Full Authorization" for "Inventory in Warehouse" report (indeed, my user could already open "Inventory in Warehouse" forms, problem occurs after he click "OK" button)
    Its pretty confusing for me, because this only occurs for "Inventory in Warehouse" report only. It doesn't occurs for "Inventory Posting List" report or for instance "Inventory Status" report. It only occurs for "Inventory in Warehouse" report.
    Some advice would be appreciated here.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Iwan...........
                You have two modules to be authorised to your users for that. One is Inventory module and give authorisation to inventory reports. And second is Reports module in which again you have to give authorisation to the same inventory reports sub module.
                I hope this will work out.

    Hello,
    These migrated users who are owners of the distribution group can't manage it in Microsoft Exchange Online, if you want to manage the distribution group, the distribution group owners need to use on-premises tools for Exchange Server such as the following:
    EMC and EMS, and then we need directory synchronization or other tools to sync the changes to Office 365.
    Even though all DG and PFs are moved to Exchange online, I'm afraid that we still need on-premises tools for Exchange Server :EMC and EMS.

  • User does not have permission to perform this action

    Dear sirs,
    i made a project (VB2010 express) connecting to SQL Server 2008 express on my PC running Windows 7 (W7): it works as expected.
    Now,
    i need  the same project run on a different PC (running Windows XP,  say WXP, with VB2010 express installed) of my private LAN, but still connecting to SQL server running on Windows7-PC. So i exported the project file to WXP PC.
    After enabling TCP for SQL, opening ports and bla bla bla, i can "see" SQLEXPRESS instance (running on W7) from SqlServerManagementStudio running on WXP and i can modify, select, create tables and so on.
    Then i changed connection string parameters in app.config to point to the dB:
    <connectionStrings>
    <add name="IlMioCapolavoro22.My.MySettings.MyCompanyConnectionString"
    connectionString="Data Source=INGSERGIO\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=z:\mycompany.mdf;Integrated Security=true;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True"
    providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
    </connectionStrings>
    In detail, i changed .\SQLEXPRESS to INGSERGIO\SQLEXPRESS and AttachDbFilename =c:\temp\mycompany.mdf to  AttachDbFilename = Z:\mycompany.mdf (c:\temp of W7-PC is mounted as z:\ on WXP PC).
    IF i do F5, i get the sql exception above.
    Based on what i read in other forums,
    it seems that the user connecting to SQL server (when the program starts) has not enough permission to access the database: frankly speaking, i don't know which user should i add permission for (my knowledge of SQL is poor).
    The SQL Server Log file doesn't show anything (or what i am able to see).
    .mdf file is in a directory where anyone has all privileges in reading-writing etc.
    Can anyone help me?
    Thanks
    Sergio

    Dear Sofiya,
    thanks for reply.
    TCP/IP, SQLServer.exe and SQLBrowser were already configured (Windows firewall was configured by adding "listening ports"
    and not by changing scope to applications... i don't think this is a problem): in fact i can connect db remotely from SSMS (all privileges).
    When you say:
    "make sure the
    user running your DB application in other computer has permissions to access the database"
    you mean "windows user" ? if so, same windows user & password are accessing the 2 PCs, they both have admin-privileges on both PCs (maybe different operating system is a concern?). I didn't
    create sql-user so far because my understanding is that in windows authentication mode it shouldn't be necessary or am i wrong? 
    "..., we can attach the “.mdf” file the SQL Server Express and then use the same method (Connect to database with
    VB) to connect the database." ---> VB doesn't let me do this, because if i try to test the connection
    with the db file from VB, it errors saying: "the file is in a network path not supported for database files. A database with the
    same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share." Somewhere i had read
    that the VB EXPRESS doesn't support database remote connection, so it is necessary to do it by changing manually string connection.
    Any ideas?
    thank you.

  • You don't have Add and Customize Pages permissions required to perform this action - but i do!

    Hello.
    I am having a similar problem to the one described by this post here:
    http://kiruthik.com/2010/10/05/YouDontHaveAddAndCustomizePagesPermissionsRequiredToPerformThisAction.aspx
    However, his resolution of changing web.config under wwwroot did not fix my issue.
    Here is the situation on a recently upgraded SP2010.
    1) Create a document library. Set the document template to "basic page"
    2) give a user full control on the document library.
    3) Go, under that users credentials, to the document library and create a new document.
    4) Name the document whatever and hit create
    5) a page is displayed which says the following: "Web Part Error:
    A Web Part or Web Form Control on this Page cannot be displayed or imported. You don't have Add and Customize Pages permissions required to perform this action."
    6) Become confused as giving someone "full control" on the library should obviously inherit the permissions to when they create a document and try and edit it.
    If i give the user "full control" on the entire site (site actions -> site permissions), then the document pops open an editor which would allow you to add content to the basic page. Obviously, i do not want to give users full control to the
    entire site :)
    Giving the user  "Add and Customize Pages" permissions on the entire SITE allows them to edit get the popup to edit the file, but this is not desireable either since then they could "Add, change, or delete HTML pages or Web Part pages,
    and edit the Web site using a Windows SharePoint Services-compatible editor.". I do not want them to edit any web pages, i just want them to edit a particular lists webpage!
    Things i have tried:
    - Set the permissions on the "MSContentEditor" webpart to have the user have full control of the web part.
    - set the permissions on ALL the web parts to have the user have full control (permissions on the web parts list)
    - Edited web.config to add a line to mark "contentEditorWebPart" as safe, and then restarted IIS.
    - Recreated test lists and was able to duplicate the behaviour
    So I am wondering, is this a sharepoint bug or what? Should a web part not inherit the permissions of the list it is working in? if not, what are the exact items i need to set permissions on to get this webpart to display correctly?
    Setting global site permissions is not an option.
    Another workaround is to make a "wiki page library" which allows you to copy and paste text into a static page, and also edit that text. I can move all the content over to a "wiki page library", and thats what i probably will end up doing
    in the end, but its annoying because there is alot of content to move, and it all has to be done by hand as you cannot upload documents to a wiki afaik. Also the wiki uses a different editor, its inline instead of a popup in IE which is probably why it is
    working.
    This may not be a bug and could be a simple permissions problem or something else, but i have been looking at this for hours and it doesnt make any sense to me.
    Any help appreciated thanks!

    Hi,
    Yes, you must have “Add and Customize Pages” permission
    from site level to perform this action, the permission is not in list permission level.
    You can add a new permission level which only includes “Add and Customize Pages” permission, and then create new SharePoint group with this permission
    level.
    Add the users into the SharePoint group and these users will get the “Add and Customize Pages” permission
    from site level.(site permissions)
    Additionally to add/edit page, the users also need the permission level “Contributor” in list permission level.
    (you should know when you grant the full control to the users in list permission level, the users won’t get the permission from site level)
    If you need further help, please let me know.
    Hope this helps
    Thanks!
