• Type: Bug
• Status: Closed
• Priority: Major

• Affects Version/s: 1.8.3
• Fix Version/s: 1.8.6
• Component/s: Database activity module

I have a teacher who was trying to upload a .csv file into a database he created. These are the steps he followed:
1) Open Database
2) Click the Add Entry tab
3) Click the link to Upload Entries from File
4) Browse to the File
5) Click the upload button

When he clicks the upload button he gets a message "Sorry, but you do not currently have permissions to do that ([[data:uploadentries]])"

That's fine, I would know how to fix that. However, when I go into the assign roles area and edit the teacher role, I do not have the option anywhere to allow access to data:uploadentries. I have many other options under the database including view, write, etc, but nothing about uploading.

We are using version 1.8.3 and plan to upgrade to 2 at some point in time (hopefully this summer). Can you tell me if I am missing something simple? Or is this fixed in newer versions?

Thank you!
