Description
I'm logged in to the Trac system using for eg. guest user. While trying to access some function I have no rights to, I see an error screen which is correct. But why error screen shows up that i'm not logged in and I have no rights to log out?
Is this fixed anywhere in later version? I could not find similar bug. If yes, please close 'invalid'.
greetz, hifly

As I said, I'm already signed in to the Trac system as some user. While browsing for eg. tickets (cause I'm able to) I press, let say, Add ticket. Error screen appears which is totally correct, cause I don't have rights to add new tickets, but…Error screen shows up (you can say,in header menu) login button, like I've never signed in to the trac, instead of "Log off user" button, which should be available as I'm already signed in. Do you understand whats my point?

The trouble is that you should not see the "New ticket" button if you do not have the permissions to create a new ticket: this button should not be visible.
Are you sure you do not have a browser cache issue, or something like this, that would make the "New ticket" appear from a previous browsing session ?

Ok, You are right, I shouldn't see New ticket. That was only an example. To be more specific, I've seen this on error screen, while browsing SVN repository, which was not missconfigured or temporairly down (I don't remember exectly now, I forgot to take a screenshot).
What if there will be an unexpected error, that you couldn't forseen and an error screen will appear to the user, with login button instead of logout?
If you think, this is the way it should be, please close "invalid".

I don't understand… the error message says “BLA_BLA privileges required to perform this operation”. This is an accurate error message. It doesn't tell you to login or logout.
And sure you have “rights to log out”.
