Hi,
I get always "Your are not allowed to view this page".
However, I think the used account has enough rights.
It there a way to check which rights are missing?

It might be some external part such as the menu panels which you can't view.
try: /bin/view/<YourSpace>/<YourPage>?xpage=plain
If it still shows the error then it's definitly the page you can't access.
To answer your question:
You can check the rights of a given user with the administration rights section. Make sure
you
check for rights in /bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences and also in
/bin/admin/<YourSpace>/WebPreferences
Rights can be denied in a space even if they are allowed globally.
Rights can also be denied for a single page
so check /bin/edit/<YourSpace>/<YourPage>?editor=rights

Hi,
found out what went me wrong.
I allowed viewing in the assigned user group, but I disabled viewing in the
WikiAllGroup.
It is surprising to me that the more general WikiAllGroup wins over the more
specific assigned user group.
However, when the more specific user group is no more able to change the
value when defined at WikiAllGroup, the checkbox should either be invisible
or readonly to reflect the current state

Actually it's more the deny that wins other the allow.

Yes but currently the right manager UI does not resolve rights it just
show the configuration of the current context. That's an improvement
we want to do but that not on the top of the TODO list.

Deny rights are always stronger than allow rights. There is no group
ordering, no notion of a "more specific" group.
However, when the more specific user group is no more
able to change the

No, that is not right, since there is no known relationship between two
groups. XWikiAllGroup could be much larger than the smaller group, thus
the allow right is not always ignored, it correctly applies for all the
users that are in XWikiAllGroup and not in your specific group.

There is no relationship?? From the name any user is part of XWikiAllGroup (I don't
know what is implemented).
That is the relationship.
I consider this as a design bug when the more general wins over the more specific.
This approach means I have to set ALL specific values right, I could NOT use the general
for common setting overwriting it at some exceptions.
This leads to unmangable situation when have more than a few groups.
