Error switching to update mode
|
|
|
| Hey, everyone:
I had some difficulty to get into update mode with windows authentication.
Say I was trying to go into update mode for a published page:
PublishingMode modeBefore = CmsHttpContext.Current.Mode;
WindowsIdentity ident = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent();
CmsApplicationContext cmsContext = new CmsApplicationContext();
cmsContext.AuthenticateUsingUserHandle(ident.Token, PublishingMode.Update);
PublishingMode modeAfter = CmsHttpContext.Current.Mode;
I didn't get exception, though. But it never succeeded in changing to update
mode. modeBefore and modeAfter is always published.
I'm an admistrator for the site. ( so I should have permissions to all
containers, and also update all postings. ).
The IIS Web site is configured as "Integrated Windows Authentication"
This is what I have in web.config:
<authorization>
<deny users="?" />
</authorization>
<identity impersonate="true" />
<authentication mode="Windows" />
Any ideas of what goes wrong? I'm just running out of ideas. 
Thank you so much in advance.

| I read some previous posts, and noticed the identity for web page should be:
WindowsIdentity ident = HttpContext.Current.User.Identity as WindowsIdentity;
Unfortunately, it's still not working after I make the change.

| Hi
That should work.
Could you post the entire code sample so that we can take
a look at the line that's complaining that you're not in
the update mode?
regards
Mei Ying

| Hi,
this is quite simple:
you are authenticating in the CmsApplicationContext (means cmsContext) but
then you are checking the mode of the CmsHttpContext.
Thats not what you need to do.
You need to check the mode of your cmsContext variable.
See here:
> PublishingMode modeBefore = CmsHttpContext.Current.Mode;
>
> WindowsIdentity ident = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent();
> CmsApplicationContext cmsContext = new CmsApplicationContext();
> cmsContext.AuthenticateUsingUserHandle(ident.Token,
PublishingMode.Update);
>
> PublishingMode modeAfter = cmsContext.Mode;
Cheers,
Stefan.

| Hi, there:
Thank you very much for your reply. I'm posting my complete code ( after
taking Stephan's advice ), and also the exception message:
CmsApplicationContext cmsContext = new CmsApplicationContext();
WindowsIdentity ident = HttpContext.Current.User.Identity as WindowsIdentity;
bool isError = false;
string temp=string.Empty;
try
{
PublishingMode mode = CmsHttpContext.Current.Mode;
temp= "mode is --" + mode + "<br>";
cmsContext.AuthenticateUsingUserHandle(ident.Token,
publishingMode.Update);
mode = cmsContext.Mode;
temp+= "mode after attemp is -- "+ mode + "<br>";
Posting destPosting =
(Posting)CmsHttpContext.Current.Searches.GetByUrl(destPath);
PlaceholderCollection placeHolders = destPosting.Placeholders;
HtmlPlaceholder destPlaceHolder =
(HtmlPlaceholder)destPosting.Placeholders[name];
temp += "Place Holder Name -- " + destPlaceHolder.Name + "<br>";
destPlaceHolder.Html = myIntendendedHTML;
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
temp += "Error Message -- " + ex.Message + "<br>";
temp += "Exception Source -- " + ex.Source + "<br>";
temp += "Exception Stack Trace -- " + ex.StackTrace + "<br>";
Response.Write(temp);
isError = true;
}
if (!isError)
cmsContext.CommitAll();
Error Message is:
mode is --Published
mode after attemp is -- Update
Place Holder Name -- My Informer
Error Message -- Invalid mode for update. The requested action modifies the
state of an object and can only be performed when the session is in the
'Update' mode.
Exception Source -- Microsoft.ContentManagement.Publishing
Exception Stack Trace -- at
Microsoft.ContentManagement.Publishing.Posting.BeginWrite(Boolean
ignoreMarkForActions) at
Microsoft.ContentManagement.Publishing.Posting.BeginWrite() at
Microsoft.ContentManagement.Publishing.Events.PostingEvents. OnPlaceholderPropertyChanging(Placeholde
r
target, String propertyName, Object& propertyValue) at
Microsoft.ContentManagement.Publishing.Placeholder.BeginWrite(String
propertyName, Object& propertyValue) at
Microsoft.ContentManagement.Publishing.Extensions.Placeholders.HtmlPlaceholder.set_Html(String
value) at CmsApplication.Templates.Updater.SetDestinationPosting(String
destPath, String name) in
c:\inetpub\wwwroot\cmsapplication\templa
tes\updater.aspx.cs:line 224
****************************************
**************
As you can see, the mode after the attemp is claimed to be "update".
However, setting HtmlPlaceHolder.HTML still gives an "CmsInvalidMode"
exception.
The only thing I suspect, though, is I'm using RadEditorPlaceholder, but I
cast it into an HTMLPlaceholder. But at least, I can get the HTML from that,
it's the setting that gives me the problem.
Thanks again!

| Hi,
you must not use CmsHttpContext.
You just created a new application context but your search uses the
CmsHttpContext.
Please change your code as follows:
> Posting destPosting =
> (Posting)cmsContext.Current.Searches.GetByUrl(destPath);
Cheers,
Stefan.
