Standard User are not able to View/List Contacts, Organizations, Opportunity, etc
This was a problem I have been struggling for couple of days, which were SOLVED completely by making sure ALL VTIGER database and tables have same collation. Since probably other VTIGER users possibly can face similar problem, I am summarizing the solution.
1) When Installing VTIGER from scratch, make sure to CREATE DATABASE/USER, instead of letting VTIGER INSTALLATON do it, prior to run VTIGER installation script and make sure to set its COLLATION to recommended "utf8_general_ci" (I used this method)
2) Case VTIGER was migrated, or after import and configurations, recoimmended solutions might be (I did not test, but very likely that it will work) altering collations and converting database and actual tables to target collation e.g. "utf8_general_ci". Please make sure to get FULL BACKUP of VTIUGER database before start making any changes to it.
go to Database. Get a backup of database. runthe following query in database-
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS vtiger_cv2group ( cvid int(25) NOT NULL, groupid int(25) NOT NULL, KEY vtiger_cv2group_ibfk_1 (cvid), KEY vtiger_groups_ibfk_1 (groupid) ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS vtiger_cv2role ( cvid int(25) NOT NULL, roleid varchar(50) NOT NULL ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS vtiger_cv2rs ( cvid int(25) NOT NULL, rsid varchar(255) NOT NULL ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS vtiger_cv2users ( cvid int(25) NOT NULL, userid int(25) NOT NULL, KEY vtiger_cv2users_ibfk_1 (cvid), KEY vtiger_users_ibfk_1 (userid) ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;
Now check.
