Hello, we are using etherpad-lite 1.8.7 and ilias 6.5 2020-10-23

we have this problem: You have no permission to access this pad <<< when accessing an etherpad object as root or user <<< but the roles have all permissions to etherpad objects

everthing is configured and added like described in the readme of this repo and install instructions of etherpad

it's not an subdomain issue. subdomains are under the same root domain

Can you suggest any change / hint?

thanks in advance

This problem is still present in ILIAS 7. Everything worked fine in ILIAS 5.4 with plugin version 1.4.5, after the upgrade to ILIAS 7 and plugin version 1.6.0, the above error is shown and pads can't be accessed anymore. Etherpad version is still the same (1.8.16), the etherpad debug log shows the message "access denied: must have an HTTP API session to access private group pads".

We could resolve it, the subdomain of the etherpad has to be an subdomain of the domain where ilias is on. You also have to enable valid SSL encryption on both. First we tried to host etherpad under another subdomain, this triggered XSS protections of the browsers and we failed to this error
