PM01164: CM-REQ-4011 ATTEMPTING TO EXPAND PUBLIC FOLDERS IN POWERPLAY ADMINISTRATION

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• If you have a user who is in the Powerplay administrators group,
  and there are objects in the public folders (packages, folders
  etc) that you have denied them access to, you will not be able
  to expand public folders in PP admin in Cognos admin. If you
  grant permissions to every object in public folders, there is no
  problem. The user should be able to see whatever he has access
  to. THe error in the portal is:
  
  Failed to obtain properties.
  
  If you deny permissions on the first object in public folders
  (call it package A), the error in the log will complain about A.
  If you now grant access to A and then deny access to package B,
  the log will complain about package B and so forth.
