Error message

No server

What it means

getDocPermissions queries permission actions from the cloud server; when workspaceServerService.server is missing (no server bound to this workspace) it throws Error('No server') instead of issuing the request.

Solutions

1. Connect to a server before performing permission checks.
2. Ensure the workspace has a server configured.

When it happens

Trigger: Thrown by getDocPermissions in the guard store when workspaceServerService.server is null, preventing the doc role permissions GraphQL query from running.

Common situations: Doc permission checks fail for a workspace without an active cloud server connection. Ensure the workspace is connected to a server and the user is signed in.
