Thread-topic: PERMISSION_DENIED on get_this_host

Hi Hinrich,

 

Have a look at the XE commands subject-list, subject-add, subject-role-add. It’s only possible to log in to XenServer by using a subject with a role. But since you say you were able to successfully log in, you should already have one. You can also have a look at /var/log/xensource.log and see if you find any relevant debug messages when calling get_this_host.

 

It works for me with root, and both with a pool-admin user and a read-only user (h04 is the master):

 

$ python

Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Jan 20 2010, 21:48:48)

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

>>> import xmlrpclib

>>> x=xmlrpclib.Server("http://h04")

 

>>> session_root=x.session.login_with_password("root","password")['Value']

>>> x.session.get_this_host(session_root,session_root)

{'Status': 'Success', 'Value': 'OpaqueRef:4a50d6df-fd5f-5262-0c49-979f0a0d48bf'}

 

>>> session_ad_user_pool_admin=x.session.login_with_password("user_pool_admin","password")['Value']

Subject: [Xen-API] PERMISSION_DENIED on get_this_host

 

Hello list,

 

I was able to successfully log into xen api xmlrpc with username and password.

 

After that I called get_this_host – and I get

PERMISSION_DENIED

.

 

I don’t have any idea how to find out where to set the right permissions, of what actually failed due to invalid permissions.

 

Any clues?

 

Thanks in advance - Hinrich
