Component permissions troubleshooting

I can successfully log in to a station, but I get the message, “User username does not have access to the station. Check permissions.”

The user name you used to log in with is an authentic user name, but either no role has been associated with the user or the permissions contained in the role configuration do not allow the user to access the station. Log in with a user that has permission to access the station and update the configuration. A role needs permissions on at least one component for a user to be able to access the station.

I set up categories and roles, but my users can still access some components they should not be able to access and cannot access others that they should be able to access.

Confirm that you configured the component permission level correctly for each component.

Open the Category Browser and review the categories the user has permission to access. Verify that there are no unexpected components in the categories.

My users cannot change their own passwords.

You need to assign a role to each user that grants write access (rw) to the Password slot on the UserService.
