Hi Raman,
I sure could wrap the relevant parts in org-cycle with
inhibit-read-only, but so far I cannot reproduce the error. When I am
loading a write-protected file, I am getting a "Note: file is write
protected." This note is delivered as a message only, and after that
everything proceeds normally. In the buffer I seem to be able to use
org-cycle freely even though it is write protected. I think this is
because outline-mode uses overlays, not text properties. So I am
guessing that it is not org-cycle which causes the error.
Can you give me more hints as to what the problem really is? Maybe an
example file that hits the error and produces a backtrace?
Thanks.
- Carsten

At present, if you put your org files under vc control, with RCS then
opening a checked-in file i.e. one that is read-only, causes an
error since org-cycle is unable to change properties on read-only
content.
