Rules Issues when moving a 9.5.2 model to 10.2.2

[holger_b]

When starting a 9.5.2 model in 10.2.2, we are experiencing problems with rules based security assignments (elements security) - they simply do not have any effect. Can anyone help? What do we miss? And, yes, we did a security refresh.

Hi
I have not seen such issues yet.
Do you have Contributor cubes? I also reckon lower/upper case counts in case of element security rules, i.e. it has to be READ and not read.
But otherwise I have never had problems with upgrading to 10.2.2 and element security

When I first started up our 9.5.1 model in 10.2.2 FP1 I had the same problem. Turns out they tightened up some of the rule syntax and previously valid rules were now invalid. There were no warnings until I opened up the affected rule file. I'd start there-- even if you're not getting an explicit error, treat your investigation like any other rule debug.

Thank you, but none of your suggestions helped in our case. We will create a ticket and post here what the outcome is.

Solution: The problem only occured with PrivilegeGenerationOptimization=T. When we set it to F (which is the default), the problem disappeared.

Hi
Did you use feeders as described here, and you still experienced the issue?

We also found this article. But, since element security is entirely rules based in this case, there were no cells to feed from, so we decided to switch the parameter off.
