Description Matt Davis 2011-09-08 21:37:18 UTC 
Help Desk Ticket Reference: https://c.na7.visual.force.com/apex/Case_View?id=500A0000007sUdm&sfdc.override=1
project_key: JBEPP

When there is an AccessControlException, a stacktrace is logged, however there is no useful information to help identify the root cause of the problem. 

Proposed change is in attached UIDocumentForm.java :

In the java file, the change is marked by comments. The proposed fix is:

      // RECOMMENDED CHANGE HERE
      //LOG.error("Unexpected error", e);
      LOG.error("User Access Error, user [" + userName + "] does not have access to the template for content type [" +
		      contentType + "] in repository + [" + repositoryName + "]");
      // END RECOMMENDED CHANGE

Exception log also attached.

Set Release Notes Not Yet Documented because this issue is a Customer-initiated issue.
When the issue is fixed, all issues with Helpdesk ticket references *must* have a release note provided, and
included in the Release Notes document.
