The same issue was being discussed over here but without any resolution.

I'm still having the problem. Last night I installed Shoutbox 1.2 on my site and the "you are not authorised" problem occurred again the next time I logged in. The only solution I've found so far is to delete my cookies and log in again. That works every time, but it certainly is a hassle.

We just did a 1.0.12 > 1.0.14 upgrade & none of our users can login via the front end, either. For us, though, the page simply refreshes, & doesn't log the user in. I am now reading about all of the issues that 1.0.13 had, & am wondering if upgrading our CB version from 1.0.2 to 1.1 may fix things.

We are not using CB.

We do have JCS installed, as this affect 2 different user management components I woulld think it is something in the base that has changed.

I found the problem!!!

The session table is not being updated with the correct "gid" for the user

I manually changed the "gid" in the sessions table to the correct level and everything works.

Now to find the cause of the session table not being built correctly. It would be nice if a Joomla Guru would poke their head in this post.

I had the same errors and I found this solution on another web site. I tried it and it worked for me. I hope that it works for you as well. Good luck!

====================================================================================

ok, I have found a solution. The problem was the Itemid of the categories. They where still the "old" one (i've got linked the component mosdirectory before in the usermenu for registered only to test something).

To solve the problem you've got to do this:
1. DELETE THE OLD MENULINKS IN ANY MENU (othermenu, usermenu.. if there was the component linked - unpublish them is not enough - trash them).

2. GO TO THE TRASHMANAGER AND SELECT from the drop down menu on the upper right side "MENU ITEMS" (standard is "CONTENT ITEMS").

3. THEN DELET ALL OLD MENUITEMS.

And now it works fine :-)

Hmm. I tried that, but no luck.

Anyway, I have a different twist on the "You are not authorised to view this resource" thing --

It only happens when I add a value string parameter to the URL.

i.e.

http://profilereferral.com/content/view/42/56/ -- That's just fine.

but if I try to add tracking, i.e.

http://profilereferral.com/content/view/42/56/?=ad1 -- I get the "You are not authorized..." devil!

Any thoughts?

Well, I don't have a solution, but I have a work-around.

If I take a url that end in, say,

/content/section/5/27/

and use instead

/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=42&Itemid=56

--- then I can use a variable after the URL for improved landing page analytics and tracking.

This will work in a pinch, but I'd like a better answer, so...

Bump.

(PS -- this is only for content/section pages. If the page has a component in the URL, say "Weirdly, if the URL has a component in it, say, "/component/option,com_wrapper/Itemid,59" then I don't have to convert to an index.php string to get my tracking to work properly.)

Backup your old .htaccess file, assuming you have SEF installed, replace weddingq.com with your website name.
Use the following as your new .htaccess file.

One other thing with the You are not authorized. Check your login redirect in the mod_login. it may point to a page that no longer exists or has been messed with during the upgrade.

by the way it is probably not a bad idea to leave off the site URL and start the redirects with index.php?.....

I have found that I am getting the "You are not authorised to view this resource" message on news items. The items are valid and published and show for all users on the news Blog page.

The standard latest news module shows the link to the news itme but when I click on the news item link I get the dreaded "You are not authorised to view this resource" message. This occurs a lot when creating new news items. The show up in the BLOG but not via a link.

These are the things that each suffering news item has in common:

The names of the news items are long
The news names often contain a non-text character such as !
The news item has a name but no alias title

Also,

Artio JoomSEF is enabled
Default Cache-ing is disabled, Page Cache is enabled

To get round this I have tried a lot of different fixes but in the end I have a solution, of sorts.

I clear the cache (through Pagecache) and turn off cacheing
I clear the Artio Joom SEF cache
I temporarily disable the Pagecache component.
I shorten the news item name and remove any non-alpha numeric characters

These often fix the problem.

Finally, if the problem persists I do the following:

A news item can have intro text and main text. I always make sure there is some text in both text areas, this causes a "read more" link to appear on the BLOG page. This appears to be beneficial to reducing the occurrence of this message.

Finally if it still occurs then you need to copy the offending article, recreating a new article of the same name, unpublish the old.

Finally if the article appears as it should, turn the page cacheing back on.

I have been receiving the horrible old message once again:

"You are not authorised to view this resource You need to login"

This has been occurring when I've been using Joomla 1.0.15 and the myContent Component! version: 1.1.13 to enter new content from the front end.

I also have a module, mod_latest_created_updated_date, which shows a list of the most recently Created or Updated Content Items.

This module works correctly for any item created using the normal methods displaying each item and linking across as you would expect. However, when you create a content item using mycontent the link shown by mod_latest_created_updated_date shows : "You are not authorised to view this resource You need to login"

All other links working fine, just the new links in this module created using mycontent were adversely affected.

I have tried to analyse the content, the URL's generated but initially no solution found.

Then I looked into the Artio configuration: and tried to find something that might affect the problem, changed this config. item.

Do not remove SID from SEF URL? to 'yes', cleared all caches, then the problem went away

My last post was incorrect. Even after my mucking about it started happening again.

I finally figured it out. There is a minor conflict between MyContent and Artio JoomSEF.

When MyContent creates a new content item it uses the incorrect item id. Joomla seems to have an item id for all content, modules &c. When Mycontent creates a new content item it picks up the default item id for the mycontent component rather than for the content item category.

Once an item has been created with the wrong item id Artio creates a SEF URL for the newly created item with an incorrect itemid. So, in general links to the SEF URL don't work as it is using the wrong itemid. A quick work around is to remove the original SEF URLs generated by Artio.

A quick change to the component PHP code forcing it to use the static content itemid is another workaround (which is what I did) but the MyContent component really needs a fix.

I am no PHP programmer so this beyond me.

I think you mean virtuemart, though your new name almost works...

There is no step by step fix. You need to investigate and see what is causing it. Go through the above in this post and afterwards look here:
