Error description

  • Customer is trying to view a project in the schema wizard, but
    is unable to do so..
    
    This User has NONE access to the Root Project/Folder (i.e.
    Parent) but has FULL access to the sub-project (child project).
    
    In DOORS, the User can view this project in the Project view,
    but in the RPE data source schema wizard, we are unable to see
    the 'Project View' contents. We can only access the contents of
    the 'Database View'
    
    In the DOORS help manual there is an article ?Planning how to
    organize your data? where it is mentioned that ?In Database
    view, the user must have read access from the database root,
    right down to the module itself. In Project View the user must
    have read access from the project that contains the module right
    down to the module itself.? So I think this pretty much explains
    the behavior that we see in DOORS.
    
    Steps tried to replicate this behavior:
    1. Created two projects under the root database say P1 and P2 as
    user ?Administrator?. Gave none access to ?Everyone? for P2.
    2. Gave full access to the user ?A? for the sub project Q under
    P2.
    3. Close all instances of DOORS and login to DOORS as the user
    ?A?. change to ?Project view? and you will be able to see Q and
    modules inside that.
    4. Now use the schema wizard in RPE and the current DOORS
    instance to locate the project. Neither P2 or Q is visible
    through RPE.
