You cannot simply set permissions whenever and however you want - that would make them pointless. The user setting the permissions actually requires the WRITE_PERMISSIONS permission - it may sound strange but it makes sense. That permission is available to admin and users with Coordinator role on the node - also to users who are OWNERs of the node. You need to get the admin user to execute the script or get an admin/coordinator user to grant the required permissions.

Thanks,

Kevin

First thank you for you reply!But you suggestion still can't slove my problem.
I draw my work here:

   1 submit form using webscript
   2 read the content of form and write it to a file
   3 the file is created in a space which auto execute a script to initialize a serial review workflow.

   So the person submitting form should have write permission in the space,but he don't have read permission.I create a role in the permissionDefinitions.xml,but it doesn't work.The follow is the part of my configuration:
    <permissionGroup name="Writer" allowFullControl="false" expose="true" >
        <includePermissionGroup permissionGroup="AddChildren" type="sys:base"/>
      </permissionGroup>

Do you have other suggestion? Thank you!
