Here’s something that has been bugging me for a while.
In a nutshell:
Sometimes, attempting to access a local database without the ‘Enforce a consistent Access Control List across all replicas’ option enabled fails with a ‘You are not authorized to access that database’ error.
Steps to reproduce:
Create a new local database (in my case, it was actually a database template having an NTF extension).
Remove your name from the ACL & leave the ‘Enforce a consistent Access Control List across all replicas’ option disabled.
After closing the database, you will still be able to reopen it (this is expected).
Add your name back into the ACL with Manager access.
Replicate the database to a server.
Have someone else sign the database on the server.
Replicate the database back to your local Notes Client.
Remove your name from the ACL; the ‘Enforce a consistent Access Control List across all replicas’ option remains disabled.
After closing the database, if you attempt to reopen it, you’ll get the above error.
=> This is unexpected, or at least I believe so.
Am I not seeing the wood for the trees? Or can someone confirm that this is an issue?
