Description

I recall this working in 6.x or so, so "tagged as regression".

Using (12.1svn): Abril 4, 2014. r50665

Sharing acccess rights, with token access, seems to be failing.
When using "Tell a firend" for a wiki page, as user with tiki_p_admin, there is a checkboxa message sending time, and the link in the email received by the destination emial contains a TOKEN hash inside. However, once clicked in that link in a browser as anonymous, the user see the message "L'accés a aquesta pàgina està acabat" (the access to this page is over).

When using Share, as user with tiki_p_admin to share a wiki page, I see the dropdown to indicate how many times to share access rights with that email. I shared for 3 accesses (the mas allowed in the admin panel, and thus, in the dropdown, also). The eamil that receives a message comes with a token hash inside, but still gets the message "L'accés a aquesta pàgina està acabat" (the access to this page is over).


u: admin
p: 12345
Homepage restricted to registered users. When SEFURL is off, sharing access rights with friends seemed to work as expected.

IT seems the bug was not solved in trunk by then (15.x currently), and a new fix was added by jonnyb in r58322.


Fix unconfirmed for me in localhost with a snapshot of this site upgradeed to 15.x (rewrite rules do not work in show.t.o so SEF cannot be tested there). When attempting to view the site as anon. with the url (which includes the token param name and value), I get:

Your access to this page has expired


Update June 22, 2016: This issue seems to happen still when any param is added to the url (page_ref_id=nnn - from structures, or fullscreen=y to prevent disclosing information from the side modules that the user has access to, besides the content that would like to be shown frmo the central column).

Solution

Try r54437


Great, Jonny, this fixes the issue in 14.x (confirmed). Is this backportable to 13.x and 12.x "as-is"?


Update: Backported to 13.x in r55011 and to 12.x in r55012 (after testing in a production environment that the backport to 12.x worked as expected). Thanks again for fixing, jonnyb!


for 15.x, Try r58322

Update:

  • fixed myself one issue ("My Page" taken as different frmo "My+Page" in the sefurl version of it) in trunk in r58953 & r58955 and backported to 15.x (not to 12.x since it's not a clean backport, and I can't invest time now into that type of backport to 12.x + testing, etc). Feel free anyone to backport if needed.
  • But still pending to fix the issue when any param other than the page name is present in the url (page_ref_id=nnn - from structures, or fullscreen=y to prevent disclosing information from the side modules that the user has access to, besides the content that would like to be shown frmo the central column).

Tested in 21.x with Share and SEFURL and this error is gone. Closing. Thanks whoever fixed this Share feature!

Workaround

It seems that when disabling SEFURL, Share access right with friends (at least), works as expected.

Demonstrate Bug (Tiki 19+)
Please demonstrate your bug on show2.tiki.org
 About show2.tiki.org

To help developers solve the bug, we kindly request that you demonstrate your bug on a show2.tiki.org instance. To start, simply select a version and click on "Create show2.tiki.org instance". Once the instance is ready (in a minute or two), as indicated in the status window below, you can then access that instance, login (the initial admin username/password is "admin") and configure the Tiki to demonstrate your bug. Priority will be given to bugs that have been demonstrated on show2.tiki.org.

Version: Create show2.tiki.org instance
Demonstrate Bug (older Tiki versions)
This bug has been demonstrated on show.tikiwiki.org
 Accessing the Tiki instance that demonstrates this bug

The URL for the show.tikiwiki.org instance that demonstrates this bug is at: http://xavi-9794-5225.show.tikiwiki.org. Note that if you get a popup asking for a username/password, please just enter "show" and "show". This is different from the initial login and password for a new Tiki which is "admin" and "admin".

For the install log, see http://xavi-9794-5225.show.tikiwiki.org/info.txt

Note that if you see PHP errors or a Tiki claiming to be missing third party software, the instance creation is probably not finished. Please wait a couple minutes and reload.

 Snapshots

Snapshots are database dumps of the configuration that developers can download for debugging. Once you have reproduced your bug on the show.tikiwiki.org instance, create a snapshot that can then be downloaded by developers for further investigation.

Snapshots can be accessed at: http://xavi-9794-5225.show.tikiwiki.org/snapshots/. Note that if you get a popup asking for a username/password, please just enter "show" and "show".

Keywords

The following is a list of keywords that should serve as hubs for navigation within the Tiki development and should correspond to documentation keywords.

Each feature in Tiki has a wiki page which regroups all the bugs, requests for enhancements, etc. It is somewhat a form of wiki-based project management. You can also express your interest in a feature by adding it to your profile. You can also try out the Dynamic filter.
