Hi,

Have a look at this thread for some info on the various roles.

I'll have a look into the version problem you have raised and let you know the outcome.

Thanks,

Hi,

I have done some investigation into this issue and it appears to be a bug with the create content wizard.

It looks like when the author attribute is set on this wizard it may be overriding the owner information which is causing problems when looking at the properties.

The reason you have seen this issue with only some documents is because the meta-data extraction for some document types (eg Word) populates the author field.

The work around for now is to ensure that the author tag on the create content wizard is blank, the author can be successfully edited once the document has been created.

I have raised a JIRA task here so that you can track it progress.

Thanks for spotting this,
Roy

Thank you, Roy.
I followed your work-around solution. I add a new opendocument text file, clear the Author field. Then a view detail of that document and I can expand the version history. But when I login as another user account (not admin) and view detail of that document, the detail screen appears, when I click on the link version history, the same exception occcured.
Did you get the same problem?

Hi,

I'm not seeing that problem, but I'll add the use case to the JIRA task so it gets checked when the fix is done.

Thanks,
