Clicking "Edit Tags" causes authentication error

If you're getting logged out it likely has to do with the session.  It shouldn't have anything to do with file permissions or permission levels for the user.

Quite often these sorts of issues are related to cookies and cookie settings.  Can you try a different browser and see if you get the same behaviour?  Also do you see anything in the javascript error log in your browser?

Thanks for pointing me to "session". Turns out the issue was because session management was set to "key" in localOverrides. Commenting that out to restore the default of session_cookie allowed the "Edit Tags" button to work correctly in the Library Browser.
