Bug #70812
closed
edit user or usergroup > cannot remove every permission on file/directories
100%
Description
Steps to reproduce:
1) System > backend user module (or root > list)
2) click + to create a new user
3) remove EVERY permission
4) on the tab "Mounts and workspaces" > "Fileoperation permissions:" uncheck everything both on "directory" and "files" list.
5) save
Result: "directory" and "files" lists still have checked options (the one you unchecked before) that is:
Directory: Read
Directory: Write
Directory: Add
Directory: Rename
Directory: Move
Directory: Delete
Files: Read
Files: Write
Files: Add
Files: Rename
Files: Replace
Files: Move
Files: Delete
(see attached file)
- you have to remove EVERYTHING from both to have this situation: if you keep at least one setting in one of the lists, the result is saved and not reverted
- this issue does not seem present on 6.2.15

I had the same problem on an own TCA configuration.
I think this bug has the following reason:
In
typo3/sysext/backend/Classes/Form/Element/SelectCheckBoxElement.phpline 114 the default value for an empty list is defined as "".
$html[] = '<input type="hidden" class="select-checkbox" name="' . htmlspecialchars($parameterArray['itemFormElName']) . '" value="">';
In
DataHandler::castReferenceValuethe value "" would be replaced by the default value defined in TCA.
Changing the return of castReferenceValue or the default value could be breaking change in some scenarios.

Thats a really hard bug since a few years. Would be nice if somebody could fix this.

I took a look already some time ago. It is also super hard to fix this!
I wasn't yet able to figure out if this would result in a major breaking change of DataHandler.

Would it be able to add a temoporary checkbox like "no permissions"?

I was thinking: the issue is still present, but... does it make sense to remove every permission from the file or directory operations? If I don't want let a group do anything on a filemount - not even read it - I should not give it to the group, am I right? I hope I explained myself.
Or is there some scenario that I am not considering?
My suggestions
1) Make the "Read" always checked and readonly - later we can even remove it from the view maybe.
I think that this would even prevent some "odd" config like Read: deny; Write: allow
or
2) print out an error or warning message if I try to remove everything and save (It could even be something like "you can't remove every permission from the directory / file; permissions reverted to the previous selection"
Updated by Jonas Eberle about 4 years ago
I think 1) is a very practical choice.

Well not technically in this case, but doesn't the underlying Form Engine issue still exist?
I remember wrangling this issue for a while with a project because the requirements stated some form should have a multi-checkbox list with default selection and possibility to select nothing.
I think if this issue would be closed with a workaround, the TCA documentation should be adjusted to give some indication that the behaviour I described is out of spec for that field type (which I could understand, the underlying issue is a nightmare to fix, at least it was when I attempted some years back)
Updated by Riccardo De Contardi about 4 years ago
@Felix Rauch I got your point, you are right;
I feel that multiple checkboxes on FormEngine are a bit misfortunate; there is another issue: it is not possible to mark them as required ;)
Anyway, so there are two separate issues here
- the technical one about FormEngine and multiple checkboxes
- the conceptual one about permissions on files and folder
