    </acl>
</config>

i have given acl permissions in config.xml, i am not sure any thing that i did wrong here. admin user login error screen shot

working for admin login, screen shot

Automobile

I think Admin has to give the permission to another user from "Role Resource" under the System > Permissions > Roles. – Cue

I have given that permissions but not working – Automobile

Answer 1

Finally i got the answer, in the config.xml file i gave the below code

<acl>
            <resources>
                <all>
                    <title>Allow Everything</title>
                </all>

            </resources>
</acl>

and in my controller file i gave below code

protected function _isAllowed(){
        return true;
    }

then everything working as expected

Automobile

Most modules have the allowed everything under all. The _isAllowed function is the one that's missing. Upvoted! – Attica

@Automobile Perfect answer. Thanks ! – Heterozygous

Answer 2

Issue in your adminhtml.xml file

<config>
    <menu>
        <retailertab module="su_virtualretailer" translate="title">
            <title>Virtual Retailer</title>

                            </shop>
                        </children>
                    </retailertab>
                </children>
            </admin>
        </resources>
    </acl>
</config>

Update code as per above.

just change your acl tree node custom to retailertab

I have changed this as you said Chirag, but the same error is getting, access denied. – Automobile

Don't know why but somehow this is not working in my case as well. – Xanthine
