You receive an access denied error message when you delete or modify a user who you added to a portal site area in SharePoint Portal Server 2003
When you try to delete or to edit a user who you added to a
portal site area in Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003, you may
receive an error message that is similar to the following:
Access denied. You do not have permission to perform this
action or access this resource. Access requests are not
enabled.
This problem may occur if your user account is assigned the
Manage area rights to the area but your user account is not a member of a site
group that has appropriate permissions to the portal site. In this situation,
you can add users from the same domain or from other trusted domains to the
area, but you cannot delete or edit the permissions of any users who you added
to that area.
To work around this problem, make sure that your user
account is a member of a site group for the portal site. For example, add your
user account to the Reader site group for the portal site. To add a new user to
a site group, follow these steps:
- On the Site Settings page of the portal site, click
Manage Users.
- Click Add Users.
- In the Step 1: Choose Users area, type the
e-mail address or the user name (in
Domain\UserName format)
of the user who you want to add.
- In the Step 2: Choose Permissions area,
click to select the check box next to the site group that you want to add the
user to, and then click Next.
- In the Step 3: Confirm Users area, verify
the e-mail address, user name, and display name information of the user who you
want to add.
- In the Step 4: Send E-mail area, if you
want to send an e-mail message, click to select the Send the following
e-mail to let these users know they've been added check box, and then
type the information that you want for the e-mail message.
- Click Finish.

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
