Problem with users without access to LIVE workspace
0%
Description
Steps to reproduce the issue:
- Install fresh 8.7 TYPO3
- Add Introduction Package to have some content
- Activate workspaces extension
- Add a user group without access to LIVE workspace
- Add a user to newly created user group that also has no access to LIVE workspace
- Create a new workspace e.g. named 'Draft'
- make user group member of the workspace
- login as the new user
You get the error message "Oops, an error occurred! No such workspace defined".
This also affects the frontend, blocking the site all the way.
Workaround for now is to edit the be_users database table and set the correct id of the 'Draft' workspace for the user(s).
However, the problem did not occur in TYPO3 7.6 or earlier.

I can confirm this issue in TYPO3 8.7.7
This also affects users who have previously had access to the LIVE workspace but have been updated or moved to another group.
So, another way to reproduce:
1. edit an existing user with acces to live workspace
2. remove the group that grants access to live workspace, add a group that is a member of a non-LIVE workspace "draft"
3. try to switch user or log in as the user - the expected behaviour wolud be that the user is now in "draft" instad of LIVE
4. the record in be_users will be updated with workspace=-99, you will be stuck with the following exception until ending the session.
#1476045469: No such workspace defined InvalidArgumentException thrown in file /var/www/vendor/typo3/cms/typo3/sysext/workspaces/Classes/Service/WorkspaceService.php in line 129. TYPO3\CMS\Workspaces\Service\WorkspaceService::getWorkspaceTitle(-99) ...
The only way to fix this is by manually editing each affected be_users record in the database, which is impossible to maintain on a large scale.

The problem seems to be that only the "reviewers" column of a workspace is checked but not "members" when fetching the default workspace.
The attached patch for TYPO_8-7 solved it for me.
