User issues in accessing document in a docbase
Comments

Roles = features, not security. You need to assign these users to the groups that are defined in the ACL.
For example, a user belonging to consumer role will NOT see Edit feature even though he/she might belong to group that has WRITE/DELETE permissions. Alternatively, a user belonging to contributor role will see Edit feature, but will not have permissions to change the document if he/she does not belong to group that has at least WRITE permissions.
Have you read the Content Server Fundamentals guide? You will get your answers to a lot of your questions if you understand the fundamentals of the technology.

I cant guide you b/c I don't know your application. I don't know what roles you have configured; I don't know what groups are used in your security. You have been posting a lot of questions on the forum that you should be able to answer if you take Content Server Fundamentals class.

. I assigned "user_name" to the "abc_searcher" and "abc_searcher_role" roles. When I do a search with her credentials, I get 0 results.
As I said in my previous post, role assignment only impacts the UI. When you do search, search uses permissions on documents. You probably didn't add them to groups that are part of the ACL on the documents.

There are two users in your user-acl-attr-issue.jpg. Is it Lynn or Jennifer that is having problem? You didn't grant Lynn READ, you only grant her BROWSE.
As for the group, I see "dos_searcher" referenced in ACL. You said group_searcher, so this is what I was looking for. Post screenshot of the group membership of "dos_searcher" group to confirm that Lynn is in it.

I have run the acl_replication batch file and the FT Integrity batch file that should fix the acl/permissions issue wrt the users etc. dos_processor group has write permissions do i need to do something with it?
- You only need to run the script if you have updated the ACL definition. Adding a user to group that is already referenced should not require running batch file.
for doing basic and advanced search i hope browse/read permissions on the group and acl/permissions set is enough?
- Browse should be sufficient to search on object attributes - may not work for full text searching, since with browse access, you don't have access to content.
do i need to modify the permission set under the users properties?
- No. This is only in case inherit permission setting is set to USER. Most customers use business logic to set ACL or use FOLDER setting.
