Visual Studio 2010 had supported List Definition  template to create the project automatically with fully the schema and define the structure of list. Unfonately, it has not supported for Dicussion Board list.

But you can download another template to upgrade your existed template and can use dicussion board list.

"Access denied. Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))"

Contribute account can access and some actions on the page. I created a new page with inheritance from the default.master of SharePoint 2010.

I tested on SharePoint 2007 and as a result it works smoothly. But in SharePoint 2010, I got an error:

"Access denied. Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))"

The trace log:

It took me some hours to find out the problem, event thought I run the debugging line by line but it thows the exception before reach the CreateChildControl method. I guest it happens from ASPX or MasterPage.

Here is the problem:

 Some resources of this MasterPage can not be accessed by Contributor account, so just remove them out. Hope this help you fix your issue.

"Access denied" when using contributor account to access to content-type

When I was using the contributor account to check the content-type folder is "message" or "Dicussion", I got an error: "Access denied!"

My code:

if (ctype.ResourceFolder.Name == "Message")
{
     //do something
}

But nothing happened with owner account.

Yes, because contributor account can not access to ResourceFolder properties of content-type. ResourceFolder was inherited from SPFolder and execute the method FolderEnsure. You know to give the access to folder ensure the account must be set the properties currentWeb.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true; and the default for member account does not have permission to run that update.

You can change the code to look like this:

if (ctype.Id == SPBuiltInContentTypeId.Message)
{
    //do something
}

The result is nearly the same.
