Unauthorized to create user

[oldekaltera]

I have installed the plugin, because there is an need to auto add an user to an organization within CKAN. The installation goes well but after enabling the plugin an tried register an user the system gives an error message with 'Unauthorized to create user'.

The user is created but not auto added to the defined organization, any more issued this? and to fix this. I am working with 2.8.2.

Sorry for the long delay in responding. We've only tested the plugin with CKAN 2.7 and haven't yet had the funding to fix it to work with later versions.

The error still exists.
When the _check_access() function is called when adding the new user to the group Forbidden Access message is shown.
I'm using ckan 2.10.3
is there any work around for this?

Is your user permitted to add users to this group? Can you add them to the group without the plugin present? I'd be surprised if the plugin works with CKAN 2.10 as it was developed for 2.7 and we haven't had the funding to update it for later CKAN versions.

@martinburchell I can add users to the group from the UI (I have sysadmin access). When trying to add the users automatically when they are registered (by using the plugin), I'm getting the forbidden access message.

_check_access() function inside the ckan.auth module is causing the error.

OK. I guess you'll just need to step through the code to see why this is happening.
