Role Management and User portlet access other than "admin" a

[dexxa]

Using JBOSS 2.6 ALPHA1 (bundled) on Windows server 2003

It seems like access to the role management and user portlets are restricted to only the user account "admin". I have created a new user and added them to the administrator role only. When I log on as the new user and try to access the role management I get the message "Sorry you do not have access to this function". When I try to access the user portlet using this new user I do not get a "create user" link but just the "edit your profile" link.

I noticed that when you try to apply security through the Management Portlet all of the roles are shown except the role Administrators. A role called Admin is displayed. Does Admin = the role Administrators or does Admin = the user account named admin?

What I need is a way to blow away the default accounts (for security purposes) and create a couple of new "admin" accounts without messin' up the access. Any help would be appreciated!

I just tried with no problem.

I would be curious to know how you did exactly.

I just created a new user, add him to the Administrator role and he has the Admin privileges (he has the link to "create user" for example.

(in the management portlet, Admin corresponds to the Administrator role, this should be fixed. I'm opening a Jira issue for that, as well as another bug i found)

Thanks

hmmmm...tried it out this morning and both portlets were accessible without having made any (further) changes to the security. Must be a caching issue???

Thanks Thomas
