Issue

  • A user is not able to see the control panel, even though they are in a user group which correctly has assigned the application permissions and resource permissions relating to control panel access

Environment

  • 2024.Q1

Resolution

  • This is resolved in 2024.Q2.0+, via the fix for LPD-25542

Additional Information

  • As a workaround in impacted versions of Liferay, this issue can be bypassed by assigning the role directly to a user (instead of assigning the role to the user's user group), which will grant the expected control panel access
  • Managing Site Membership and Permissions with User Groups
