RTC Error: items with a protected read access must use a public content id


jeanie Keen (132023) | asked Jun 10 '13, 1:58 p.m.

i did not realize the configuration of requiring a work item and comments was not turned on.

I created several txt files on the web that were not associated with a work item and also did not include the comment.  Then i found where to set the configuration and now noone can add a file without a comment or a work item.  Now i want to remove the junk test files i added. 

I selected the file > Remove

When i do this i am recieving the error:  items with a protected read access must use a public content id, a project id, or a current contributor id but the id "XXXXX" was used.

Any ideas on how to resolve this?

The easiest workaround would be to use a different client (e.g. Eclipse, command line) to delete the file.
But it still would be interesting to know what was going wrong in the WebUI.

i figured it out

I had changed the acl to no one except administrators.  I changed it back to using project hiearchy and added team member role.  I did not realize i needed to have team member if i was the administrator i would assume that it should over ride everything.  After validating this worked i put the ACL back to the No one except administrators and it worked.  So ultimately was i needed to be a team member.
