Access Denied. The system is currently in read-only mode - Java Web Service

We have fully functioning APIs that were working fine with the Alfresco 4.0 enterprise edition. But from today morning, we keep getting this error while fetching documents and their versions through Java webservices.AxisFault faultCode: {http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Server.generalExcept

Hi Hariharan,

Are you sure your Alfresco license is still valid. Because if it isn't, it's a default behaviour to toggle the entire repository to read-only mode.

Hope it helps

Thanks, Simon! I think we still have valid license, cos we are able to create/upload/download docs from URL/share but not from java web service API. Please note, from the same API, we are able to fetch the directories but not documents.

Will setting the server.transaction.allow-writes as true in global properties help?

Very strange, I've never seen this sort of combinaison. I think you already checked that, but are they pointing on the same repo?

Since it's an entreprise version, you can always open a support ticket.
