Adding Page access to New DataAssist Page Set in PowerStore 4.5.1 Admin.

Adding Page access to New DataAssist Page Set in PowerStore 4.5.1 Admin.

Is there an easy way to do this? I have spent two days with Security Assist trying to complete this presumably simple task.

The PowerStore 'admin' folder is as standard, but I have used DataAssist to add new Insert, Results, detail etc. pages for a 'books' section to add Amazon code to sell related books via the Amazon partners program. All works well.

All I want to do is add page access so that once the site Administrator has logged in via admin/index.php, he will also be granted to those pages. The Access Groups and Access Rules already exist, so I run the Page Access Manager, and it adds the code:

<?php require_once( "../WA_SecurityAssist/Helper_PHP.php" ); ?>
<?php
if (!WA_Auth_RulePasses("Administrator")){
    WA_Auth_RestrictAccess("index.php");
}
?>

to each of the six new pages, which is the same access that is in the existing PowerStore admin pages. But every time I try to access one of the six new pages after logging into admin, I get the following error:

  The page isn't redirecting properly
Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.  

Is there a simple way of doing this? - i.e. step-by-step walk-through?

Thanks

I think you just need to also include the globals file:

/webassist/globals/globals.php

That file is needed to define the admin username and password that is used in that rule.

Thanks Ray,

I added that to my pages, - now I get:

  "Fatal error: Call to undefined function rel2abs() in /home/users/uks77340/html/worldbasket.co.uk/webassist/globals/globals.php on line 47"  

which is:

$absLink = rel2abs("../../",dirname(__FILE__));

I attach the results page - one of the 6 new DataAssist pages that sit in the admin directory in powerstore. Essentially, I need this and the others to be available to the logged in administrator of the PowerStore 4.5.1

Sorry to be so thick about this - probably something very obvious.

Thanks

It looks like you also need to include:

/webassist/framework/library.php

before globals.php can load.

Excellent, Ray.

Many, many thanks for all your time,

Best regards.
