Today i realised that the content section throws a Server Error in '/' Application when the content section isn't available for the user.

When you log in to Umbraco you can see this error in the left side where the content tree normaly is.
And you have to browse to the section available to the user.

I'm running version 3.0.3 - have anyone seen this error.

Sounds like a bug to me. I suspect that the code ought to check to see that the umbraco user has access to the Content section before loading the content section by default after a login.

Another question is, though, why would you have an umbraco user that *doesn't* have at least some access to the content section? I suppose this is so rare a situation that no one has had this problem before.

I've created that kind of user for a photographer that were to upload a bunch of photos into a sinve Media folder once. And when I think about it he mentioned an error message... ; )

I have created a new section where a sales person logs into Umbraco and perform a sale. It's a charity organisation and they sell sponsorships.
He creates a member and the member will be listed on the website as a sponsor.

It was a demand for the customer that the sales people didn't have access to the content section.

To avoid the error message until the bug is fixed in the core code, could you create a dummy node in the content section and set the user's "start in node" to that node? Upon login they would go to a blank and harmless node and not see an error.

If you create a new docType that doesn't have any properties and doesn't allow any other documents to be created beneath it, that should resolve the issue until a fix comes.
