Visual Composer - Permission denied

[Former Member]

hello friends,

My visual composer is giving authentication exception ..

<b>I am tryng to log in using J2EE_ADMIN , it says "Roles specification: You don't have a Visual Composer role.

"</b>

i have installed the required SP7 patches , .

please let me know what exact role do i have to assign to J2EE_ADMIN , and under what parent role does this role comes... i guess the child role name is VCRole.

please correct me if i am wrong.

thanks

rohit

Hi,

Tell your Portal System Administrator to assign you the VC Role and then try to access the Visual Composer using the same URL what you use for accessing Portal but instead of http://<hostname>:<port number>/irj/portal put http://<hostname>:<port number>/VC

Hi,

In the portal-> user administration ->search for roles and then give VC* and search.

Search in the portal user administration not in the visual admin.

This is the role

pcd:portal_content/com.sap.gm.cnt/core/VCRole

Login using the administrator ID and try searching for the VCRole.

=================================================

In wiki->VC -> FAQ 32 -> Another option

32 Cannot see the system list in Visual Composer

Make sure that you have set the Security Zone permissions correctly for the Netweaver Portal content under sap.com in System Administration -> Permissions. Add the VCRole role to the Medium Safety security zone with the following permissions: [None, EU = yes]

This should display the systems in the data source list in Visual Composer.

check if the permissions set on the folder your systems are set to allow everyone to use them.

Make sure that your system logs and see if the user guest is trying to login when you perform a search for systems. If this is in fact the case make sure the login modules are setup appropriately. See pages 46 & 47 of the Visual Composer troubleshooting guide, it explains in detail how to do this.

Hi,

You have to assign the VC role to the user. Search for VC* in roles and add the role to the user.
