Permissions issue.

[Tom Riddleff]

I don't know how I did it. But now neither Admin nor users can't post messages, chat, add topic in the forum.
Could you please help me to solve it or direct me to the right place?

Now Admin has no permissions to manage the categories, users, ets. At least he can enter the admin dash board.

Go to the admin ACP and check the category has permissions set for each user group. So can read write access etc.

@a_5mith Thank you for advise.
But unfortunately list of User Groups in "Category" >> "Access" is empty
I don't even have a clue how could I broke it.

In Groups I have 2 groups: Administrators and dummy 'Test group'. Both of them are not editable for admin.
Can't create a new group as well.
Please help

[Update] I'm using 0.6.x version

Are you running MongoDB or Redis?

Redis

[julian]

@Tom-Riddleff In redis-cli, what do you see when you run the following queries?

hgetall groupslug:groupname

hgetall groups:administrators

smembers groups

zrange groups:createtime 0 -1

@julian
On Redis side - every thing OK. Respective keys and values on their places.
After some investigation I found that the problem acctually in Cloudflare, which I use. It supports websockets on 'Enterprise' plan, which I don't have.
So I swith that off.
And everything works like a charm

@Tom-Riddleff https://community.nodebb.org/topic/3708/open-source-cloudflare Might help you, I'm not sure, I've not tried it yet.

@Tom-Riddleff you can still run Cloudflare for DNS management, but you can't allow it to cache/minify content for the domain.

Yea. And I've done so. Moved back to Cloudflare, but swithed 'cloud' off for nodebb hostname.

@Tom-Riddleff Yes, this is what we suggest as well. Grey clouds for NodeBB until CF allows websockets everywhere

Hi,
I have same problem as in below quote.
User Groups in Category Permissions is empty!
I've setup NodeBB on openshift hosting based on @nhl.pl tutorial: https://community.nodebb.org/topic/3866/guide-nodebb-0-6-1-on-openshift-for-windows-users-with-putty

Thank you
