Q: Group Members cannot access Wiki
i have set up my os x server (10.8) for Wiki usage. Users and Groups are in general network users and groups.
When i setup a Wiki and afterwards grant permissions to a specific group, the members of that groupd still cannot access that wiki.
When i choose to setup a wiki for a group in group management its working fine. But also changes to the default permissions do not take effect.
Any idea what might be the issue here or how to figure it out?
Mac mini, OS X Server

After recreation of the groups their UUID will be different.
The very first time a group is used in the wiki server it copies the group name along with the UUID into the collab database.
- Open Server App an select from menu: Tools -> Directory Services
- Browse the "Groups" and compare the "GeneratedID" of the groups with the data in the database
- To open the wiki database type in Terminal: sudo psql -h "/Library/Server/Wiki/PostgresSocket" --username=collab
- Update the group IDs in the database that are not correct
