Inorder to explain the prob definition, I will walk you through the entire Anonymous access settings froms the scratch.
While setting the Anonymous access to a document library,
- You set Anonymous access on the desired IIS website:
IIS -> Websites -> double click on the desired Website -> Properties -> Directory Security -> check the anonymous access box - You set the anonymous access on the web application level
SCA -> Application management -> Application Security ->Authentication Providers -> Default -> Check the Anonymous access check box - You set the Anonymous access on the site that you desire
Site Actions -> Site Settings -> Advanced Permisions -> settings -> Anonymous access - Now when you try to set the Anonymous access on a particular document library/list, you try to go to the document library, -> Settings -> Document library settings -> permissions for this document library -> Settings -> Anonymous access
You get to see the available option disabled or grayed out.
Reason:
Document library you are trying to set the anonymous access is configured to allow only read access on the doc lib.
Fix:
Trick is with the Advanced settings.
Document library -> Settings -> Doc lib settings -> Adv settings -> Item-level Permissions -> Read Access -> All responses.
Note: Edit Access can be set any thing.
Show results can be set any thing
