I suppose - those boxes were not checked, but I checked those boxes
manually and it still did not work.
So you are saying that you`ve set the rights of the XWikiAllGroup as in the
screenshot and you still have issues. Have you tried isolating the problem
in a new page? Like creating a new page, writing/adding a velocity macro
(event with some static text content, it does not matter) and then saving
the page to see if it is executed properly and that you get no error?
How do I figure out what user is the author? How do I change the author of
a script?
The last author of a script is the same thing as the last content author of
the document in which the script is located. If you have problems with the
scripts inside Main.Welcome (for example), you look at its "Last modified
by" label, under the page title. That will tell you the user that last
modified the page. The gotcha here is that the script right (just like the
programming right) actually checks the last content author of that page, so
the last user that changed the page's content (not the last user that added
a comment for example, for that saved the page without changes, etc.).
To make it easier, I`ve published this small app [1] that you can install
with the Extension Manager and check the content author and the status of
Programming and Script rights on a particular page.
You need to identify who is the "content author" on the documents that
contain scripts and that fail to work on your setup.
Hope this helps,
Eduard

BTW, this is almost every velocity script.

Hello Keith,
I see 2 possibilities here:
1) Is there any chance that, while you`ve executed the Distribution
Wizard, you might have missed (ignored) the document
XWiki.XWikiPreferences? Or maybe you`ve chosen to keep all your changes?
The point is that you rights configuration (specifically the 'script' right
section) for the XWikiAllGroup in Administration should look like in this
screenshot [1] (from the 7.2 release notes [2]). The 'script' right is
explicitly given to all users so that the migration/upgrade behaves as
before, until you decide otherwise. Please check that the rights setup is
properly upgraded.
2) The only other case I can think of is that you might have deleted the
user that is set as last content author in (most of) your documents. If
this is the case, then indeed the scripts will not be able to be executed
since the user no longer exists (and thus can not own the 'script' right).
To fix this, you could recreate the previously deleted user and make sure
he has the 'script' right.
Please let us know if that helps.
Thanks,
Eduard

Hi Keith,
See
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ReleaseNotes/ReleaseNotesXWiki72#H
Scriptright
Are you sure you’ve executed the Distribution Wizard? (because by
default we give Script Rights to users).
@Edy: I think we need some additional info in the Release Notes about
this.
Thanks
-Vincent

I tried to send this once, but it looks like it
did not go through.
I just upgraded from 7.1.2 to 7.2 and now it looks like none of the
Velocity
scripts work. I ended up rolling back to 7.1.2, because it's
unusable in this state.
org.xwiki.rendering.macro.MacroExecutionException: The execution of
the
[velocity] script macro is not allowed. Check the rights of its last
author or the parameters if it's rendered from another script.
