Title: Denied all permissions on datasource connection
Post by: mrcool on 06 Jun 2013 11:55:46 PM
Hi All,

I created a new connection inside a datasource and by mistake I denied all the permissions on this new connection(for all the users) which lead this connection to disappear in the datasource. Is there anyway to get this back?At present it is not creating any problem but it is not allowing me to delete this datasource.
Any help would be highly appreciated.

P.S: my user has admin rights.


Thanks,
Mc

You did not by chance set the property 'hide this entry' for the connection ?  You would then need to enable 'show hidden entries' in your preferences.

I have realised that I do not have system admin access for my user id and requested my admin to reset all the permissions on the datasource which fixed the issue.
Main problem was I have set denied for the user "Everone".  ;D
Thank you all..
