    How grant end-users access?

    I'm guessing this is the easy part but I can't find the answer. I finally got things configured to work with https on my sharepoint dev server and I can fill out Infopath forms in the web browser but I can only do so with the admin account that I configured everything with. When I access the form as an end-user, it can query their AD info and it gives a confirmation that things submitted properly but they do not seem to show up anywhere. If I use the same form while logged in as admin, everything works fine.

    I've tried granting full control to the sharepoint library to the test user accounts I was using.

    As the DBXL Administrator you can add permissions for other users. Here is how to edit these permissions:

    1. In the Qdabrawebservice folder where DBXL was installed, find the web.config file.
    2. Open the file (in a text editor, like Notepad) and look for the following: ReaderGroupAlias, WriterGroupAlias, AdminGroupAlias and DbxlAdminAlias.
    3. Each of these Keys will be assigned a value (that is, a group).

    During installation, DBXL creates a group called DBXLAdmins on the machine where DBXL was installed. That group, by default, is assigned to AdminGroupAlias and DbxlAdminAlias. To add a DBXL Administrator, simply add users to that group.

    ReaderGroupAlias and WriterGroupAlias are blank by default on new installations of DBXL.

    1. On the machine where DBXL was installed, create a group called DBXLUsers and add users to this group.
    2. Back in web.config, change ReaderGroupAlias, WriterGroupAlias to use <machinename>\DBXLUsers.
    3. Save web.config.

    After you have made these changes, perform an iisreset and then attempt to access from another machine, using another user’s credentials, submit a form, etc.

    Hopefully this helps to solve the issue, but let us know if it does not. Thank you.
