Hello,I've been using 2.1 community under Linux for quite a time without problems. Starting past week some users started complaining they suddenly had errors 1) trying to create spaces: Failed to create new space due to error: Access Denied.

This also happens for some of my users.

I think I've narrowed it down to a use case where the user that gets the error is a coordinator for the space but is not the owner of the space and has no permissions whatsoever on the parent space.

Could you find any way around this?

thx

I have the same problem, but only in the 'User Homes' folder.
I have a 2.9b server on a centos 5.1, and everything was working ok, but suddenly, any time a user try to create a file on his 'User Folder' using WebDav access inside Microsoft Office tools the system give me this same error (I have found out that the Webdav LOCK request maden by the office tool gets this error answer).
The checked the user is already the owner of his User Folder and additionally I add the role Coordinator to this user, but it's still failing.

Do you have any idea about the reason?

Regards,

David.
