Michael Caplan	Saturday 14 June 2003 6:53:46 am Hi, I am working on an install of Exponential 3.1 RC2. I have configured the SiteAccessSetting in the override site.ini.append so that it matches a site on "host" and the hostmatchtype is "map." I then configured RequireUserLogin to false. Within the SiteAccess overrides for the two sites I map to (demo and admin), I have configured the site.ini.append files so that the "admin" site RequireUserLogin=true, and the "demo" site is RequireUserLogin=false. The problem I have is this: the overrides for the SiteAccess files (site.ini.append) are not taking. In this case, when accessing the admin site, I am not prompted for a user login screen on first visit. If I change the settings/override/site.ini.append file to RequireUserLogin=true, the reverse happens: I am promoted for a login for both sites. Is this a bug, or am I missing something here? Thanks, Michael [SiteAccessSettings] CheckValidity=false RequireUserLogin=false MatchOrder=host HostMatchType=map HostMatchMapItems[]=ias;demo HostMatchMapItems[]=admin-ias;admin
Jo Henrik Endrerud	Saturday 14 June 2003 12:43:50 pm Hi Michael No, this is not a bug. The reason for this behaviour is because the settings/override/site.ini.append file has the highest priority of the configuration files. If a setting is found here, it will not even bother by checking the site access site.ini.append file. If you want a setting different for different site accesses you should not have the variable in the override site.ini.append file Jo Henrik Endrerud \| System Developer @ Seeds Consulting \| http://www.seeds.no

Hi,

I am working on an install of Exponential 3.1 RC2. I have configured the SiteAccessSetting in the override site.ini.append so that it matches a site on "host" and the hostmatchtype is "map." I then configured RequireUserLogin to false. Within the SiteAccess overrides for the two sites I map to (demo and admin), I have configured the site.ini.append files so that the "admin" site RequireUserLogin=true, and the "demo" site is RequireUserLogin=false.

The problem I have is this: the overrides for the SiteAccess files (site.ini.append) are not taking. In this case, when accessing the admin site, I am not prompted for a user login screen on first visit. If I change the settings/override/site.ini.append file to RequireUserLogin=true, the reverse happens: I am promoted for a login for both sites. Is this a bug, or am I missing something here?

Thanks,

Michael

Hi Michael

No, this is not a bug. The reason for this behaviour is because the settings/override/site.ini.append file has the highest priority of the configuration files. If a setting is found here, it will not even bother by checking the site access site.ini.append file.
