Issues with rebuild content permissions after OG installation

Last modified: May 29, 2009 - 20:25

Hi,

if you can not rebuild your content permissions (rebuild does not finish or finishes with error) after installing OG access control module (part of the OG bundle) do this:

1. run this command on your sql server:
delete from node_access;
insert into node_access values (0,0,'all',1,0,0);

2. turn off the OG access control module

Well, you'll not able to use this module but at least node permissions are not messed up and your site is not corrupted.

In researching this issue and digging deeper, I found that I had two left-over content items from a content type that I had previously deleted. This was preventing the content permissions rebuild from rebuilding. Once, I removed those two nodes from the node and node_revisions table, I was able to leave OG Access control turned on and run rebuild permissions with no problem.

Content without a title can also cause this

Construct a view to check all your content for missing UID (UID=0), missing title, or missing type. There may be other things that can cause this, but those will definitely do it.
