Hi,
we deployed BaseX 7.3 as web application in a tomcat7 cluster environment.
The rest service is running fine in local mode, but we ve a security issue...
We don't want that someone can modify the xml databases, so it must be readonly, but with no password protection.
Is there a way to do this in local mode?
Thanks in advance, jan
Hi Jan,
the usual approach is to create a new user with read permissions, and assign it as default user in the web.xml file [1].
Hope this helps, feel free to ask for more, Christian

Hi Christian,
I tried it this way already, but maybe i do sth wrong here...
I created a database and a second user with read permission via basexclient. After that i copied the database files to a central file location. I referenced this file location in the web.xml and I also changed the user settings to my readonly user... But when i call the rest service, the service prompts for password and only the default user admin is accepted.
best regards, jan

Hi Christian,
thx for your help, it works now.
I just forgot to copy the .basexperm file to the webapp folder.
