So, after discussion with Vincent on IRC, it has revealed that the issue is not related to the SCRIPT right, but to the PROGRAM right. The macro failing was a Groovy macro. Groovy macro requires programming rights and PR is only allowed to global users. So, when a local wiki user has upgraded the wiki, and the standard package has installed a page containing a groovy macro, this macro was broken. The standard package installed by the DW is not supposed to contain any Groovy macro due to this limitation. In Vincent particular case, that one was introduced in https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/ae09194f83b9fe1f75778e0a2501a6cc37c4b060. We probably need to check everywhere in our standard pages, to be sure there aren’t other cases like that, and Vincent just proposed a PR-fixing day for that. -- Denis Gervalle SOFTEC sa - CEO On Sat, Aug 19, 2017 at 12:18, Vincent Massol <[email protected]> wrote: Hi Denis,

Ok I assumed is was because of this reason but it could be something else indeed The problem I saw was on: http://lescastcodeurs.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/edit/Episodes/Code/EpisodesClass?wizard=true&template=AppWithinMinutes.ClassTemplate&parent=Episodes.WebHome&title=Episodes%20Class There’s this error: "org.xwiki.rendering.macro.MacroExecutionException: The execution of the [groovy] script macro is not allowed. Check the rights of its last author or the parameters if it's rendered from another script." > I tried to found the issue on your wiki without success.

I’m currently improving http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Change%20creator%2C%20author%20or%20contentAuthor/ to handle nested pages.
