Access Denied when editting/creating list items mobile view even with ENOUGH permissions set?

Hi everyone,

We've got a weird problem: when a user navigates to a specific site collection (via mobile), then he/she sees everything normally (due to the Read rights that user has on that level).

When that same person wants to add something to a simple list within that site (or edit), then they get an Access Denied error message (even though they have enough permissions: Contribute). This only happens in the mobile view. When the same users does everything on a desktop then there are no issues.

I've checked the (effective) permissions a million times, they're correct.

More background info: it's a Foundation site. The mobile views for editting/creating items for the above list work when you give the user Contribute permissions on the root site (instead on the list itself). The permissions for the list are broken up from its parent. Looks like it's trying to call a masterpage or something different from the normal views when editting/creating items and the minimum of permission needed there is contribute? Maybe someone has a clue where or how?

Hopefully someone can help me with this problem.

Thanks in advanced!

With kind regards,

M. Hekman

Hi,

In SharePoint 2010, Mobile views are not available for Datasheet and Gantt view types. Not sure about SP 2013 but can check the same.

Also check the Browser Definition file (compat.browser)  Browser Definition File Schema (browsers Element)

Hope this helps :)
