Hi, I've hit a strange issue with Gerrit, the Non-Interactive Users group and the Stream Events capability. The user hudsonu is member of the Non-Interactive Users group. The Non-Interactive User group is allowed in the Stream Events global capability. Gerrit is 2.8.3 $ ssh -p 29418 -i .ssh/id_rsa hudsonu@server gerrit version gerrit version 2.8.3 However, when calling the stream-events commands, it failed : $ ssh -p 29418 -i .ssh/id_rsa hudsonu@server gerrit stream-events Capability streamEvents is required to access this resource And the sshd_log says this : [2014-04-05 18:49:57,365 +0100] c7814142 hudsonu a/12 gerrit.stream-events 0ms 3ms not-admin So I tried to confirm that hudsonu was really part of the Non-Interactive Users group (the GUI says so, I just wanna check). $ ssh -p 29418 -i .ssh/id_rsa hudsonu@server gerrit ls-groups Administrators Anonymous Users Non-Interactive Users Project Owners Registered Users $ ssh -p 29418 -i .ssh/id_rsa hudsonu@server gerrit ls-members "Non-Interactive Users" fatal: Too many arguments: Users $ ssh -p 29418 -i .ssh/id_rsa hudsonu@server gerrit ls-members 'Non-Interactive Users' fatal: Too many arguments: Users $ ssh -p 29418 -i .ssh/id_rsa hudsonu@server gerrit ls-members Non-Interactive\ Users fatal: Too many arguments: Users There is no way to get the member list of the Non-Interactive Users group, as it contains a space. This is a first issue. Still searching for the root cause of our non-working stream-events, I created a new group "streamers" and made hudsonu member of it. Then I added the "streamers" group as an allowed group for Stream Events capability. And then it worked : hudsonu was able to call the stream-events command without error message about missing capability I also tried to add hudsonu to the Administrator group (after having removed it from the streamers group) and it worked too. I don't know if it is related to the previous bug of "group with spaces" but there is definitely something wrong here. Gregory

And ls-groups without the -u flag lists all visible groups, not just the groups the user is a member of.

Thanks for your feedback. I tried and both of your solutions worked. However, I still don't get why the stream-events capability is not granted to the Non-Interactive Users group whereas it is to another group. Regards,

There was probably a bug in ver 2.8.x. I have verified, on latest master, that a user in the Non-Interactive Users group has the capability to view stream events. Anyways the simple workaround is to explicitly grant Non-Interactive Users the stream-events capability. |
