WSS 3 all documents suddenly write protected ?
Hi -
Im using WSS 3.0 on a SBS 2008 server. (Default installation).
I have suddenly got a issue where all documents in libraries are write protected. This happens on all computers. It is no problem to briowse the WSS site, but documents are write protected.
Any idea of what can be the reason here, and how to fx this.

The only thing I can think of is maybe someone accidently changed the content type setting to Read Only. Go to the top level of your team site > site actions > site settings > site content types. Click on "Document" go to Advanced Settings and make sure it's not marked as read only.
Is is just documents?
Can check the policy for webapps,
http://CA:PORT/_admin/policy.aspx
Make sure that someone didnt set all users to read-only or something silly like that.

Hi -
Thanx for good advice. The content type in site settings is ok.
The policy for webapps was read only, and I have now changed it to full control, but still the same error. I also tried to give users access directly here, but no success.
Any othere idea?

Just shooting in the dark now, but did you check the site collection Lock? /_admin/sitequota.aspx
Also, you would not typicall give full control to all users under policy for web app. (not a good idea)
You could also use Sharepointloggingspy to try and see what else might be going on. http://www.codeplex.com/sharepointloggingspy

Hi -
The quotas/lock is ok, thanx.
Ill check out the tool.
Next week Ill deploy a new server with MOSS2007. I dont like the SBS2008 pre installed thing. It gives less control over the details.

Ya, i havent messed with it much... But I just dont like its limitations. 75 cal max and such... and too much on a single server.
Good luck.
Good luck.
