Allowing a non-admin to create sites?

[Fabian Kneißl-2]

Hi all,

I am currently in the process of establishing Sakai in our university
faculty. I have tried quite a lot of stuff out and don't know more to
try out. Could you please help me?


What I want to do:
Create a worksite for "assistants" where they can create new project and
course worksites.

What I did:
I created a new worksite and added the tool "Worksite setup" to this
worksite. Then I modified the roles in the Realm tool. There I set the
function "site.add" to the correct realm & role and granted this role to
one assistant, but the "New"-Button in the Worksite Setup did not appear
for an assistant.


Do I have to modify something else?


We use latest Sakai 2.5.x with the LDAP UserDirectoryProvider.

You need to log in as admin and set the following permission in the  
user.template realm (in Realm tool):
.auth permission: site.add
After setting this, your users can create new worksite using the  
"Worksite Setup" tool in their "My Workspace" worksite.

If you want to restrict this ability to only assistants, I think you  
can create a new user.template.assistant realm and set their user  
type as 'assistant' -- someone else might want to confirm or deny this..

Ah, thank you very much! Also your tipp with user.template.assistant
worked perfectly. So easy if you just know it ;)

Cheers,
Fabian

Hi Fabian,

The way we do this is via Sakai's webservices. A person goes to our
interface, fills out a form and creates a site. This occurs via the admin
user in Sakai but the normal user externally.

Steve
