Hi Everyone,
Sorry to be posting an issue, again, but this one really has me beat!
Symptom: Site Admins (sub site) getting Access Denied when trying to edit a page (depsite having full control permissions), but the page ithen shows as checked out to them when I look – I can edit the page just not the site admins. They can edit lists, document libraries etc just nothing that is in the “Pages” directory
I’ve changed permissions, stop inheriting permissions from the parent site & assigned permissions direct all to no avail – the only common demoninator is the pages directory but they have full permissions to this too hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Anyone come across this kind of behaviour before?

Also if your Site Admins are and AD group check that, you could also try to individually specify accounts rather than groups.
Do you have a test user that you can use and apply the same permissions as your site admins too? Open up IE with the test user and say chrome or Firefox with your own so you can quickly mess with the permissions and see any changes.
As Mark has said check the assets, it could be a rouge but of JS or CSS that’s not checked in. Also create a new pages library and test on that too.
Sorry if this is going over old ground for you.
I looked at all these Mark, passed to external support to see if they can find out why this is happening. In the mean time I am looking at a plan B 😉
Let me know how it goes…
The fact that you can check-out the page, leads me to think it’s not the page iteself, but something within it. You could have something that (when in Edit Mode) tries to request a secured asset. This thing could be in :
- The page layout
- The master page
- Web Part
- User Control
So, probably the only way to track it down is to eliminate each possibility one by one.
