I've been getting a similar problem on a client's site.

When a new page is created within a group, the 'group' is set, but the
'owner' field is not set (I've traced through lib/view.php: function
View::_create() and there is nowhere that I can see that makes any
attempt to set the 'owner' field for group pages).

When you try to add anything to the page, the function
activity_occurred('watchlist', $data) is called (line 1369 of view.php,
in function process_changes). This then reaches
ActivityTypeWatchlist::__construct(), which throws an exception if the
'owner' field is not set.

I'm afraid I'm not yet very familiar with the internals of Mahara (I am
a Moodle developer most of the time), so I'm not quite sure which of
these two functions are behaving incorrectly (the View::_create()
function for not setting the 'owner' or the
ActivityTypeWatchlist::__construct() function for expecting it to be
set).

Title:
  group files error after upgrade

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi,
  I upgraded to Mahara 1.6.2 on two sites. When upgrading both sites I had to alter the database to remove a latin1 collation somewhere in the tables, as outlined here - https://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=1770 The upgrade then ran and appeared to work, but I discovered a couple of closely related issues. In the first site I'm getting an error whenever any user tries to add a file to a page within a group (see screenshot). In the second test site the Files tab in groups is missing completely.

  My best guess is that a table or index has either been corrupted or
  was missed from the upgrade - but I'm stumped about how to proceed in
  fixing this. Any suggestions would be welcome. The page not found
  issue is the priority.

  Thanks, Gordon.
