Hello,
we have upgraded from EA12.1 to EA15.1 (v1526) last weekend.
A couple od models are organized inSQLServer-repositories. The model-admins decided to use the usersecurity feature too.
This morning a couple of modelers reported that they can't find the "Lock"-functionality anymore. First we thought that this was a bit of irritation because of the heavy change in the user-interface between EA 12.1 and EA15.1.
When we digged a bit deeper we found that the users have lost their right to use the lock function.
We granted this for some modelers again and they are back to work... Since we have defined to derive the user-rights from group-rights we are unsure whether EA15.1 is not able to interpret the EA12.1 rules or something else...
Is anybody out there who came across a similar problem?
This issue has also been reported to Sparx.

There problem might have been caused by new permissions that have been added since version 12.

Any new permission is not granted to any user after upgrading.
We had the same issue with the new run script permissions.

Thanks,

that sounds reasonable.... so would be the best to review this stuff and to compare it with the current user-Guide I guess...

best regards
Klaus

I can confirm that a rework of the UserSecurity-permission-settings solved our problem.
I can understand that new implemented permissions are not set, but hopefully
Sparx can explain why well defined settings got lost and how we can avoid that the next time.

Thanks a lot
Klaus
