[EP-tech] Problem with eprints 3.4 file restricted



One thing that might be worth checking: is the file cached?

If you:-
- downloaded it as a logged-in user
- logged out
- revisited the URL for the document
it would look like you can access it when you shouldn't be able to - as your browser has cached it.

For PDFs, it can be tricky to force the browser to reload the file - I find the easiest way to do this is to append a query-sting to the document URL:
https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fyour.repo%2F1234%2F1%2Fdocument.pdf&data=01%7C01%7Ceprints-tech%40ecs.soton.ac.uk%7C23e1af2bd96c4933841108d823e34ac0%7C4a5378f929f44d3ebe89669d03ada9d8%7C0&sdata=XqS099OS6JgXBiaNVR9YZQUVFuhLrSOOYdtMCrhuPtw%3D&reserved=0 -> https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fyour.repo%2F1234%2F1%2Fdocument.pdf%3Fa&data=01%7C01%7Ceprints-tech%40ecs.soton.ac.uk%7C23e1af2bd96c4933841108d823e34ac0%7C4a5378f929f44d3ebe89669d03ada9d8%7C0&sdata=6wQOR%2F7wRkEMqCfUVjfRdT96o46NcWW7Qp2IAfcz2zc%3D&reserved=0

This doesn't cause EPrints to do anything different, but the browser sees it as a different document and will try to download it again.

Cheers,
John

Hi Agung Prasetyo W.,

Please could you give a bit more detail.  Is this 3.4 install a new install or an upgrade from EPrints 3.3?  If so you may still have an old cfg/cfg.d/security.pl at the archive level that looks up the IP address in a no longer supported way, which causes access restriction to break.  I can see that you have read the GitHub issue that looks to be relate to a similar issue.  So I am guessing you will have already checked this file.

I have not seen this issue with any vanilla installs of EPrints 3.4.  Is the version of EPrints 3.4 you have installed 3.4.0 or 3.4.1?  Is it a zero install or a publication (pub_lib) flavour?  If you want to privately send me the link to the publication that has a downloadable file that should be restricted this may help be get a better idea of what is going wrong.

Regards

David Newman

Please help.
