Is there a way to customize the message a user receives if they click on a link to a WebFOCUS resource that they don't have access to? Right now, if a user clicks on a link to something they don't have access to, it just says "Error....Access to item denied IBFS:/WFC/Repository........"

I'm wondering if I can change this to give the user some instructions (like who to contact if they think they should have access).

A related question might be this: is there a way to redirect a user to a different page if they don't have access. In other words, if I can't change the text of the error page, can I automatically redirect them to a different page if they get the error page?

if you have TEXTPAD, and do a 'search in files' for that character string , searching the entire /ibi/*.* directory and subs, you'll probably find it, and can edit whatever config file has that message in it.

This is a non-answer. It would have been better if you had done the work necessary for the rest of us to find the appropriate directory. Since I do not have the ability to install TEXTPAD on the server, it makes searches difficult (to say the least). Perhaps next time, you will be an expert and give the community the correct directory location to find the files in question.

FYI: Community, I am currently searching the Server for the correct path and will post as soon as I can.

Tom-Massey, susannah is a respected member of FocalPoint - you are not. It's very unfortunate that your first post here is annoying.

I agree with Francis 100%. I'll remember to never offer suggestions to Tom-Massey, who now joins QuickLearner on my "Do not help" list.
