Errors publishing to a target space page with page restrictions

Scenario

As a space administrator, when publishing some previously published and synced pages

• one page displays a publishing error

Open

• another page adds a number and bracket to the target space page name

Open

Problem

A user, including the space administrator, publishing a source space page for the first time to a target space requires view and edit permission in the target space and the source space.

Adding page-level restrictions to the published page in the target space affects further publishing actions if the user publishing the page is not included in the added page restrictions.

Solution

If the original target page restrictions are removed for the publishing user

• the publishing user has view and edit permission for the Project Teams page and the Project Teams (2) page

  • any publishing action is conflicted with two pages in the target space

  • the source page cannot be published and synced

  • an unexpected error message is displayed

Publishing conflicts are removed by deleting one of these two pages in the target space.

One - delete original published page

• delete the original target space page Project Teams

• publish and sync the source page again

The target space page name is updated and the appended (2) is removed.

Two - delete the newly published page and remove restrictions on the original published page

• delete the appended target space page Project Teams (2)

• remove the page restrictions for the publishing user on the original target space page Project Teams

• publish and sync the source page again

The original target space page is published and synced.
