Bruce,

It appears that the realms may not be set up correctly on your system. 
Please ensure they are correct by following these steps:

*8) Update Sakai Roles for Melete *

Update Sakai Roles (under realms) to include Melete permissions to
your roles. If you are upgrading Melete in your Sakai instance, no
roles changes are needed.

1. Log on as Sakai admin.
2.

Check appropriate Melete permissions under the roles in
*!site.template.course*.

*

Check *melete.author* for instructor, teaching assistant types
of roles (maintain) to which you want to give 'authoring /
manage' rights.


*

Check *melete.student *for student types of custom roles that
you have (access) to which you want to give 'viewing' rights.

3.

If you have project sites and related roles in
*!site.template.project*, appropriate permissions
(melete.student or melete.author) need to be checked as
defined above, based on what rights you want to give to the roles.

*CAUTION: *

*a. *IF YOU FAIL TO CHECK THE MELETE.STUDENT AND MELETE.AUTHOR
PERMISSIONS FOR YOUR ROLES, MELETE WILL NOT WORK PROPERLY.

*b.* IF YOU ADD MELETE TO _EXISTING SITES_, USERS WILL NOT HAVE THE
MELETE PERMISSIONS THAT YOU CHECKED. YOU WILL NEED TO USE
!SITE.HELPER OR OTHER SCRIPT TO PROPAGATE THE MELETE PERMISSION TO
EXISTING SITES.


Thanks,
Mallika
