How to fix OakAccessControl0013: Duplicate ACE

Avatar

Level 4

Hi all,

I hit this roadblock today.

I have a duplicate ACE on /content/cq:tags and there seems to be no way to remove it.

Here is a screenshot from CRX/DE:

I'm running AEM 6.5.6.0.

When I click the red (-) icon on either one of the duplicate ACL to remove it, I get the following error:

I still have no clue how it's possible to create this.

I see 2 possible options on how it was created, but I haven't investigated further:

Does anyone know a way to remove this duplicate ACE?

Thanks!

Hi @wimsymons,

As you have done migration of subtree using crx2oak, can you check if there is a duplicate entry in old repository as well?

Also share the instance version from which you migrated to 6.5.6

Just checked. There is no duplicate entry in the old repository. We migrated content from 6.4.4.0.

Hi @wimsymons,

Can you try the below options

  • Try removing from Access Control Editor (console from /crx/explorer/index.jsp) - Should be same behavior but just a try.
  • Access /useradmin - search for your group "fragment-everyone" -> Permissions Tab -> remove the read access on cq:tags path and save -> Observe ACL list in /content/cq:tags and see if entry is removed/amended (This approach is to amend the permission for the problematic group on respective path from useradmin console)
    • If success, then give the desired permissions to the group for respective path from same /useradmin console.

I did some more research. ACTool can't handle the duplicates, but if I remove the duplicate using CRX/DE before running ACTool it works fine. I can remove the duplicate ACL. After that ACTool has no more issues either. If I bump into the problem again I will try the Access Control Editor.
