  On further review it was found that users that do not have all the permissions checked at the module level will see this problem. Problem occurred with user who had Add permissions for a Container module but not manage.

  Same user had all permissions at the textmodule level but these did NOT translate over to the new server.

  • Assigned user cleared.
  • Milestone set to “Stable”
  • Milestone order changed from “83” to “0”

  So the question...what was the permission NAME (& module) on 0.97, and what should it translate to in 2.0?

  • Assigned user set to “dleffler”

  Need to confirm the following:

  • user (group) was COPIED over (must have same user id# in both new & old databases AND user MUST exist in 2.0 database)
  • 'Migrate content permissions?' was checked (assuming it was since some container/module permissions came over)
  • ALL content was copied over (only copy over permissions where 'source' is equal)
  • in the reference above if there was a user with 'add' permission on 'textmodule' with src of "@random123), it would be saved on the 2.0 system as 'create' premission on 'textController' with src of '@random123'

  Algorythm used is:

  • delete user & group permission tables
  • create list of 2.0 users
  • cycle through each user (in turn)
  • cycle through all this users's 1.0 permissions (in turn)
  • check if module is migrated to 2.0, if so 'translate' permission name
  • if there is a container with corresponding module & source (translated to 2.0 if needed) then insert the translated user permission.
  • after going through all the user's permissions, and the 2.0 users, then go through all the 2.0 groups in the same manner

  On further review, there are only two valid permissions with 0.97 text modules...'administrate' (which is tranlated to perms), and 'edit' (which translated as-is). The 'approve' and 'manage workflow' permissions are deprecated.

  There was NO create or add permission for 1.0 text modules since they only had one content. NOT sure if this is moot, or I need to add additional algorythm check for textmodules...just did a straight 1:1 copy/translate.
