HowTo - Handle 'Access denied' error with WebEdition R10

To increase system security, from WebEdition version R10 web service authentication is enabled by default. This leads to problems with integrations that do not support security token on web service interface and results in 'Access denied' error.

Solution

(A) Support security token on RemotePublic interface (recommended)
TBS strongly recommends to update web service integration (RemoteSync etc.) to support authentication via security token. More information can be found in RemotePublic Programming Guide.

(B) Deactivate web service authentication
If web service authentication shall be deactivated please use the following command:
{WebEdition}\_tools\ConfigUpdater\CfgUpd.exe profile=RPForceUnsecure

Before running the above command, please ensure the tool has version 1.2.1.26 or higher (right-click -> Properties -> Details tab).
If this is not the case, it means you are running a pre-release of R10. In order to run successfully the command, you should upgrade to the latest official version.
