Based on the previous fix, this looks good to merge.

Compare with https://github.com/joomla/joomla-platform/blob/staging/libraries/joomla/access/access.php#L217

Closing as it's merged.

After upgrading from 2.5.11 to 2.5.14 non-super-users always get the error message:
de: JERROR_LOGIN_DENIED="Es gibt keinen Zugriff auf die privaten Seiten."
en: JERROR_LOGIN_DENIED="You cannot access the private section of this site."

I had to revert this change to get my site running again :(

Check in your Global Configuration under permissions and make sure the
groups you are having trouble with are set with site login allowed.

Agree that this sounds more like an issue with your site settings than with the code.

I can confirm this issue, the groups are set the registered group is allowed to login.

I tried to reproduce it in my testing enviroment and registered users can access registered content just fine. So unable to confirm.

Anyway, you need to create a new tracker item, otherwise nothing will get fixed at all. Create a tracker in the 2.5 Bugtracker (http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/joomla/tracker/?action=TrackerItemBrowse&tracker_id=11410), write proper testing instructions how to reproduce the problem on a new installation and reference this PR there.

Thanks, that did the job. It was a faulty JEvents Migration from Joomla 1.5 to 2.5.

I fixed the table manually as described in http://docs.joomla.org/J2.5:Users_Cannot_Login_in_2.5.13
I created a new JEvents category first and then run this SQL:
SELECT * FROM jos_assets WHERE name like "com_jevents%"

The new category showed the correct parent_id and the migrated categories showed "0" - so I updated them to the correct one.
