Hello,

it appears there is some kind of permission issue at work. 403 is the status code for FORBIDDEN and usually that is the result of an access denied evaluation of permissions.

You could set the logger org.alfresco.repo.security.permissions.impl.acegi.ACLEntryVoter to DEBUG to find out where you have an access denied situation. Beware that this will generate A LOT of log output, so it's best to check in isolation…

Regards
Axel

Thanks AFaust! That helped convince me that it wasn't Alfresco's issue at all, but in a tomcat web.xml file we had:

<init-param>
<param-name>cors.allowed.methods</param-name>
<param-value>GET,POST,HEAD,OPTIONS,PUT</param-value>
</init-param>

^^ note the absence of DELETE. So it was being rejected with no clue - only the 403!
