Hello,
I was using the "taxonomy access" module but I decided that it doesn't do what I want, so got rid of it. That is to say, I didn't delete the categories, but I set them to not be used for "Pages".
Here is my problem: Some pages are now inaccessible to anonymous users. When you go to the page you get an access denied error. I'm getting stressed about this because my users are mad and they want to show their pages to other people.
I have gone to the regular permissions page (admin/user/access) and under "node module" the permission "access content" is activated for anonymous users.
I don't know what to do and I was hoping someone here had an idea. I'm using Drupal 5 btw.
I would welcome any help.
Daniel.
Shit. It's worse than I thought. It looks like only users that have a role with the "administer nodes" permission can view these pages. In other words, only site administrators can view these pages. This is horrible.
Help! :(

Try rebuilding your permissions table at admin/content/node-settings

Hmm... it doesn't seem to help.
Maybe I have the wrong permissions set in the access control page (admin/user/access) but I don't think I do. Under "node module" I have the "access content" permission set for anonymous users. That's all I need, right? All the other permissions in this section are "administer" this, "create" that, and "edit" the other.
Is there some other permission I should check?
Is it possible that the Drupal cache is acting up? I see five cache* tables in the database (cache, cache_filter, cache_menu, cache_page, cache_views). Is it safe to delete everything from these tables? Might that help?

Clearing the cache is worth a shot, and yes it is safe to delete everything from the cache* tables

Ok, I'll do that in 2 hours. Right now a customer is demo-ing the website to his boss and the last thing I want is to break something mid-way through the demo (I gave the customer admin rights just for today so he could do the demo).

Here is a silver bullet for this problem (backup your database first).
Assuming you want to return to a state in which no access modules are at work, in which everything is like a regular, normal, fresh Drupal install, you:
1. Delete all rows from the node_access table. 2. Perform this command:
db_query("INSERT INTO {node_access} VALUES (0, 0, 'all', 1, 0, 0)");
That should leave your table looking like this:
nid gid realm grant_view grant_update grant_delete 0 0 all 1 0 0
Then things should be right as rain.

Hi Victor,
Thanks, I'll definitely try that. I'll wait until after business hours, just in case something goes wrong. In any case, what you describe ("regular, normal, fresh Drupal install") sounds like exactly what I want.
Thanks. I'll write back in a couple of hours and report on whether these ideas worked or not.
Cheers, Daniel.

Remember to back up your database first!
Also, you might consider working with a development/test setup and then deploying tyhe last stable version from there to production site in future.

WHOO HOO!!!!
Thanks Victor, your solution worked. As far as I can tell, all pages are visible to all users (as it should be).
I still have a problem with permissions, but a less pressing one. I have a role called "site developer" that should be able to edit any page, but for some reason they can't. I'll write a separate post about that.
Thanks again.

You have to reset the access control settings table in the database.
See http://drupal.org/node/326143 and elsewhere in the Drupal Handbook.
