access denied [#2710433]

Just installed into a fully updated Drupal 8.1.0 site and when attempting to use the IMCE Link tool, the pop-up window opens with the Access Denied page.

It was logged as follows:

I've tried the 8.x-1.x-dev as well as the 8.x-1.1 version and I tried it with the D8 site as a Drupal 8.0.6 before I updated Drupal to 8.1.0. There was no difference.

I'm not sure what the issue is. I've used earlier IMCE Dev versions without trouble.

Thanks,
Andrew

You may need to explicitly give the admin user a role that's configured to use IMCE on the IMCE configuration page. IMCE doesn't automatically give the admin user access to the file browser.

Thanks. Solved.

Actually, what it was is that the #1 user wasn't recognized as an Admin or Administrator by IMCE. This site is a Drupal 6 to Drupal 8 migration and when I checked my role, prompted by your suggestion, I found that my #1 user wasn't assigned a role of any sort. By virtue of being the #1 user I have full reign over the system but IMCE didn't recognize that until I assigned a role of Administrator to my #1 user.
