Display module to all users

[pedrojosemartins]

I created a new module which shows "Hello World", but i can only see it in the modules menu when i'm logged in as admin. Here's the jboss-service.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<server>
<mbean
 code="org.jboss.nukes.addons.modules.empresas.EmpresasModule"
 name="nukes.modules:name=empresas"
 xmbean-dd=""
 xmbean-code="org.jboss.nukes.component.NukesMBean">
 <xmbean>
 <attribute name="Security">
 <security>
 <permission group="*" pattern="::" level="READ"/>
 </security>
 </attribute>
 <attribute name="Configuration">
 <module>
 <operation name="main" display-name="Hello" description="Display Hello World" image="" hint=""/>
 </module>
 </attribute>
 <depends>nukes.modules:name=core</depends>
 <attribute name="DisplayName">Hello module</attribute>
 <attribute name="Description">User module displaying Hello World</attribute>
 </xmbean>
</mbean>
</server>

Is something in the security area wrong?

Thanks,

I think



Should do it.

But now it is probably stored in the database, you have to change this by going in the jmxconsole

??? I think you forgot to paste something.

Sorry:

<permission group="*" pattern="::" level="READ"/>

[pedrojosemartins]

In the web console, in the appropriate module, in the security textfield,
i write

<secutiry> <permission group="*" pattern="::" level="READ"/> </security>

When pressing the "Apply changes" button, i receive the following error:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

The last post had a syntax error, it was security, not secutiry. However, after changing that, despite not having any error, it doesn't show up. Do i have to make any changes in the mysql database?

[theute]

I'm sorry again, need some sleep:

You need to put the whole code, with the line i tried to change:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<server>
<mbean
 code="org.jboss.nukes.addons.modules.empresas.EmpresasModule"
 name="nukes.modules:name=empresas"
 xmbean-dd=""
 xmbean-code="org.jboss.nukes.component.NukesMBean">
 <xmbean>
 <attribute name="Security">
 <security>
 <permission group="*" pattern=".*:.*:.*" level="READ"/>
 </security>
 </attribute>
 <attribute name="Configuration">
 <module>
 <operation name="main" display-name="Hello" description="Display Hello World" image="" hint=""/>
 </module>
 </attribute>
 <depends>nukes.modules:name=core</depends>
 <attribute name="DisplayName">Hello module</attribute>
 <attribute name="Description">User module displaying Hello World</attribute>
 </xmbean>
</mbean>
</server>

[theute]

To be more precise, the whole code in the jboss-service.xml for next time you want to install it.

Otherwise just the security part in the jmx-console

No, i still can't see it. I've undeployed it, redeployed it and it still doesn't show up. Strangely enough, i can access it through the url

http://localhost:8080/index.html?module=empresas

Any ideas on how to break this one? Thanks.

As i said before, i can only see it as administrator. If i'm not logged in or logged as a regular user, it does not show up in the modules menu, BUT i can access them via url.

Hi!

I had the same problem. I read the source and everything, but couldn't find anything.

Then I copied the code from the MenuBlock to my test module, and that displayed the menu right, but on the same page the menu didnt show my test module link. Then I tried to see what can be set in the Menu itself, and then I've found that each block/module on the page uses it's on permission settings (even related to other modules/blocks).

So I had to add this:

<permission group="*" level="READ" pattern="module:MyTestModule:main"/>

to the security of the Menu block, and then it shows it right.

If this is a feature to handle the permissions of a module in every block differently, then it is starnge, as this way we can pretty easily loose track of permissions, and at the moment I don't see too much of advantage of it.

I hope I could help with this to a lot of people, who strugle with this as I did.
