Hi all,

Trying to add a user to the "Everyone" group under Security Center, but the group has a padlock icon and I'm getting a "1305" error. Is this because I am missing an administrative level permission? I notice the group is empty, shouldn't all users in the system be added to this group?

Error Code.....IBFS: 1305
Subsystem......IBFS
Asynchronous...false
Public.........true
URI............https://xxx.edu/ibi_apps/WFServlet.ibfs

Parameters:
IBFS1_action: addUserToGroup
IBFS_groupName: IBFS:/SSYS/GROUPS/EVERYONE
IBFS_userName: IBFS:/SSYS/USERS/xxx
INTERNAL_PARENT_ID: IBFS:/SSYS/GROUPS/EVERYONE
IBIVAL_returnmode: XMLENFORCE
IBIWF_SES_AUTH_TOKEN: xxx

AJAX Return Document:


Thanks in advance for assisting.

I don't think you have to add them to "everyone" - they automatically get added when you add the user record itself. Check your 'everyone' group and see if the new user is already there.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately the folder is empty.

We are migrating from 7.X to 8.1.0.5 and have used a utility called the "Bulk Load tool" provided by IBI. The users are all in a "bulkload" folder in the environment due to the migration from the tool, but when we try to place them into the Everyone folder, I receive the error I put up in the OP.

Also, when I view a users permissions it doesn't show them inheriting anything from /Everyone.

Everyone is a protected IBI group, it cannot be modified or changed, at least that is what I was told.

Thanks jgelona,

Has anyone seen this behavior before? Initially, it WAS working, but then when we used this IBI bulkload tool, we have no one in there.

Perhaps we need to open a support ticket with IBI concerning their utility?

What do you mean by "WAS working"? What make you think it isn't working?

We've never had any users listed in the Everyone group.

Like I said, IBI told me Everyone is a protected group, it cannot be changed, modified, inherited from, etc. You are better off pretending it isn't there. If you need your own "Everyone" group you'll have to create one.

Rifaz,

Is this what you are looking for within Data Migrator?

Setting Flow Properties

This link will take you to the WebFOCUS 8105 "Working in the Data Management Console" section of the Data Migrator User's Guide.

Take care and have a nice day,
