I'm having a big issue with my site that I really dont understand at all. I'm new to Mambo and have redone my entire site and plan to release the new Mambo version soon, but I have an issue with searching...

Whenever I search, then click on a search result, it says "Unauthorized to view this resource, you must log on". When I log in as my admin account and try it, I still get the same message. This occurs for every search item. If I access the item from my site somewhere else it works fine. All my items are public so nobody should need to log in.

One thing I did notice is that the URL that it points to in the search results is a little different than what its suppose to be. Instead of "<domain>content/view/153/2" the search result points to "<domain>content/view/153", its missing the last item ID at the end.

I'm really lost on why its doing this, I dont think I changed anything, I didnt modify the search page or anything. Can anybody help? I cant find the answer anywhere!

After a couple hours of searching and biting my nails I found a fix somebody posted. More info can be found in this thread:

can you post the link again. i am having the same problem.
despite having all links being public, i get the same error message

"You are not authorized to view this resource.
You need to login"

please help!

The instructions above solve part of the problem, because, the articles and news are now working correctly, BUT it interferes with the simpleboard, polls, and docman components, NOW THEY ARE SHOWING "Unauthorized".

So it solves one thing but produce other bug in the other side.

Hello,
I have the same issue as Issasal "Whenever I search, then click on a search result, it says "Unauthorized to view this resource, you must log on". When I log in as my admin account and try it, I still get the same message. This occurs for every search item. If I access the item from my site somewhere else it works fine. All my items are public so nobody should need to log in.

One thing I did notice is that the URL that it points to in the search results is a little different than what its suppose to be. Instead of "<domain>content/view/153/2" the search result points to "<domain>content/view/153", its missing the last item ID at the end."

But, my issue is different in that some items do not have a problem. The ok items appear on the search results list with an ending id. The items producing the "unauthorized" message do not have an ending id. I am using Mambo 4.5.1 stable and it does not have a classes directory or else I would apple the reported fix to the mambo.php file.

Search capabilites are vital to this website. Please help! Thanks a Million

I am having the same issue... except its not with search. The issue appears to be when a table of links is automatically generated by mambo. I have the issue when i publish the category title, and make that category title linkable. The result is a table of items in that category. All of the results give me an error saying I must login first.

I noticed that the URL has Itemid=0. But that does not appear to be valid.... if I manually change the ItemID # it takes me to the content. It appears that the itemID can be anything except for zero to resolve the issue

It appears this was the same issue as the search issue. The file that needs to be updated is
mamboroot/includes/mambo.php starting on line 2356.

The code listed above resolved the issue
