Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[Chris Hyzer <>]

Don’t pass an actAs if you don’t need it to change.

Alternatively, make sure the group configured in grouper-ws.properties under: 
ws.act.as.group
Make sure that group exists, and the user logging in is in that group.

I wasn’t aware that it used to work that if the user was the same as actAs, 
and not allowed to actAs, that it would work... I can add that functionality 
(back) in to 1.4.1 if it makes things less confusing

Kind regards,
Chris
