Hello,

I am adding roles to users in Drupal (via the API) and I need to know how civicrm reacts on that ?

$array = array( 'roles' => array( 4=>4 ));
user_save($user, $array , $category = 'account');

And 4 is number of a drupal role with access rights on civicrm.
If I put a print statement in the check function in Drupal.php then the access rights on Civicrm seems to be OK.
But still , there is no right to start CiviCRM.
If I change the role via the administer menu of drupal then everything works fine.

The reason for this all is that the user is a memebr of organic group and the group has access to CiviCRM.

Thanks a lot,
Martin

Hello,

I found the problem. It got nothing to do with CiviCRM.

Drupal caches the menu's and if you save the user with user_save($user) then the menu_cache is not updated or empty.
I fixed it by deleting the menu_cache for this user and then everytrhing works fine.

So, it works fine and goodbye.
