[Bug / Issue] vB-5.4.2: dailyDigest fails with node_permission_section error 'subscriptions'

[m97forum]

Hello,

I'm running the latest vBulletin ver. 5.4.2.
We have a daily digest running, which crashes with the follwing message in vB5_Route_Subscription->__construct(Array, Array, '', ''):

Exception: API Error
Error: node_permission_section
Args:
array (
0 => 'subscriptions',
)

Although I'm unsure, this seems to be the relevant code:

  
 [COLOR=#000080][B]if [/B][/COLOR]([COLOR=#660000]$this[/COLOR]->[COLOR=#660e7a][B]arguments[/B][/COLOR][[COLOR=#008000][B]'tab'[/B][/COLOR]] == [COLOR=#008000][B]'subscriptions' [/B][/COLOR][COLOR=#000080][B]AND [/B][/COLOR]![COLOR=#660000]$userInfo[/COLOR][[COLOR=#008000][B]'showSubscriptions'[/B][/COLOR]]) {    [COLOR=#000080][B]throw new [/B][/COLOR]vB_Exception_NodePermission([COLOR=#008000][B]'subscriptions'[/B][/COLOR]); } [COLOR=#000080][B][/B][/COLOR]

Something seems to be wrong with the user / user settings. Can you please tell give me a hint, at what to look at?

Thanks a lot.

Seems you had fixed it on previous versions here:

Hello Wayne,

well, it's running for the most part. But this seems to be a special condition.
I know, that this is running for userid = 75 (a user that seems to have subscribed to that topic) and the lookups are working as well, giving me $userInfo['showSubscriptions'] = 0.
Since I dont know, which user setting is meant here exactly, I cannot check other users or give it another try somehow.

Can you please explain what is being checked here (i.e. what does that condition mean)?

Thanks.
Stefan

I don't know what it is doing here. I haven't had time to dig through the code and figure it out.
