Hi,

I updated from 6.2.2 to 6.2.3 (community).

Since the update I got a strange problem with the user and group rights. I can't remove groups from folders and groups are handled as users from openkm?!

It is a little bit difficult to describe, so I made a video. In this video I add a GROUP to a folder but it is shown in the users tables instead of the group table. Also I can't remove the group. However, at some point the group is removed from the folder. But I got other folders where I can't remove the group rights.

So my question is, whats going on here? Everything worked perfect in 6.2.2.

Thanks for any advice.

I test upgrade 5.1.x to 6.2.2 in the lab and it appears to go ok. I then test again 6.2.2 -> 6.2.3. During this process I make many changes to the security and the roles. I also use LDAP.

I thought the issue was due to my configuration or some test process I performed, but I guess not.

Importing the 5.1.x repository to 6.2.3 with the default ROLE_USER and ROLE_ADMIN and editing the ownership manually in filename.okm (using sed one-liner) I was able to work around this issue. For the present time I don't need to restrict any access so I will wait for 6.2.4 or the subsequent version.
