Cannot create/modify/manage groups

Hi,
Created a couple of groups like an hour ago. Managed to add users to the groups also. I have activated new modules and needed to assign the new permissions to the groups. When I access the groups, I get the warning message:

‘Access denied.
You try to access to a page, area or feature of a disabled module or without being in an authenticated session or that is not allowed to your user.’

I have logged out and back in but I am still unable to make any changes to the groups.
Your assistance will be much appreciated.

Hi, so it happens that I also encountered this issue and manage to find a way to navigate through the problem.

In my case, this is how my Admin user on a freshly installed with the “Advanced Permissions” activated able to use the “New Group”

  • Navigate to Setup > Security
  • Disable Use the advanced permissions of some modules
  • Go back to Users & Group > Groups > New Group
  • Create a new group, in my case, I named it “Super Admin”
  • Set the “Super Admin” to have all permissions
  • Go to Users & Group > List of users
  • Select your current admin user
  • Attach the newly created “Super Admin” to your admin user
  • Enable Use the advanced permissions of some modules in Setup > Security
  • And now you should be able to access the New Group page without the Access denied message

I hope there is some technical explanation about why is this the case (as I’m quite new to the platform and not quite proficient in the internal programmatical mechanism).

Good luck!
