I am facing this strange problem inside my sharepoint 2013 enterprise server, where users are able to view the Create new item link and Create form, but when they try submitting the create form , they will receive the following error :-
"The server was unable to save the form at this time. Please try again."
here is my current settings:-
- i have a team site.
- the team site have 4 Issue tracking lists.
- inside three lists i gave userA "Restricted Read", as per the parent site collection permission.
- while on the fourth list (let us name it ListD), which i am facing the problem on, i gave him Contribute permission. i did so by stopping the permission inheritance for this list.
now when UserA access the site , he will see the fourth list (ListD) only , and he can click on create new item link, and he can fill the create form, but when he click on save button , he will receive the above error.
I can fix this issue if i grant userA a "Read" permission instead of "Restricted Read" on the first three lists,, but i do not want to do so of course, as i do not want userA to be able to view the three lists. so can anyone adivce what is going on ? i mean since userA have Contribute permission on ListD and he can view the Create form,, why he will not be able to submit the form unless he have Read ++ permission on the other lists ?? is this a bug in sharepoint ?
