Bug with sections in roles?

Monday 26 January 2004 8:04:26 am

I solved this myself.

It turned out that a user needs edit-permission to Section 0(zero), if he shall have rights to create for instance images or folders from within the "create article" page.
This is because the image is temporarily stored in section 0 until it is saved to the right location.

So first I went directly into the db and created the section 0 Iin the sections table and named the section "Root Section".
Then I assigned the "Root Section" to the role under content/edit and voila!

Would be interesting to hear if anyone else has had this problem. I would rate it a bug. Would you?

Hi Kåre and Nicklas.

I'm having the same problem. All the images and uploaded files are automatically assigned to Section 0. I'm running eZ publish 3.3-4, so it should be fixed? My system also returns "Input was stored successfully".

Could you give me the link to the bugreport?

Hi!

I have a problem with users permissions and roles. Maybe you guys know the solution... I would really apreciate your help!
A few days ago I installed the forum version 3.3.1 (I believe is the latest currently supporting Castillian ES language as default).
I've registered as new user in the user site, but when I login I can't write in the forum, I don't see "New topic" or "New reply" buttons, only can write in the forum logged in as admin. I'ts funny because I did not change anything in de users/roles default configuration.

¿Does anybody nknow why this happens? ¿Is it a bug? ¿Should I need to upgrade to 3.3.4, but then, would esl_ES as default language still work??

Also, I noticed there are only 3 roles by default (admin, anonymous and guest) but 4 user groups (admin, anonymous, guest and Editor). ¿Maybe I'm missing Editor role?? ¿Should I edit user/role permissions? and if so ¿How do you do that?

I could'nt find any help about this in the online documentation. Please, if anybody could give me a little light on this one.... Please, I would really apreciate your help!!

Thank you very much

Check the guest-role settings. This account needs to have read and create rights to class forummessage.

content  read  Class( Folder , Info page , Link , File , Comment , Article , Image , Forum , Forum message , Product , Product review ) 
content  create  Class( Forum message ) 

Hope this helps,

Best Regards

Hi.

I had the same problem in 3.3.4 so this is probably a bug, but the roleproblem concerning this bug has been fixed.

Hi all,

I created a quick temporary solution by using the following code as a cron. (uses pear db)

include("DB.php");

$dsn = array(
    'phptype'  => "mysql",
    'hostspec' => "localhost",
    'database' => "your-database-name",
    'username' => "your-database-user",
    'password' => "your-database-password"
);
$db = DB::connect($dsn);

 if (PEAR::isError($db)) {
     echo "An error occurred while trying to connect to the database server.<br>\n";
     echo "Error message: " . $db->getMessage() . "<br>\n";
     echo "A more detailed error description: " . $db->getDebugInfo() . "<br>\n";
 }
 
 
$list = $db -> getAssoc  ('SELECT  * 
FROM  `ezcontentobject` 
WHERE `contentclass_id`  =12 and `section_id` = 0' ); 

var_dump($list);


if (count($list) >= "1")
	{
		echo "\nfix in progress\n";
		$res =& $db->query('update `ezcontentobject` set `section_id` = 3 WHERE `contentclass_id`  =12 and `section_id` = 0');
		if (DB::isError($res)) 
			{
				die($res->getMessage());
			}
		$list = $db -> getAssoc  ('SELECT  * 
		FROM  `ezcontentobject` 
		WHERE `contentclass_id`  =12 and `section_id` = 0' ); 
		echo "\nfix completed\n";

		var_dump($list);
		
	}

Hopefully someone can find a more elegant solution to my problem.

thanks,
