User can see own Survey but can't access it

I have a problem which I can't solve. A user has a suvey assigned to him and is able to see it, in the survey-overview.
However, when he tries to open it, he gets an error "Zugriff verweigert" which means "Access denied".
The user is part of the "default" group which has the permission to create surveys. If I add the permission to "view" the other survey, he can access it, but of course now can see the other surveys, which is unwanted.
The admin user can open the survey without problems.
Even when I change the surve owner to another user of the group "default", the new user has the same problem.
Am I doing something wrong or am I missing something?
I am using Version 4.4.1+210201.
Best
Felix

thanks for the hint. For some reason the rights in the Survey were gone. Added them now and it's fixed.
But I had another error yesterday: After upgrading from 4.4.1 to 4.4.4, the settings of the user group "default", which is only allowed to create own survey, had ALL permissions and I was not able to disable them. After saving, they were just like before.
But I think it's better to create a new topic for this, right?
Best and thanks for the help so far.

There are no "default" user group, user are not in any survey group by default.
> had ALL permissions and I was not able to disable them
Can you show me a screenshot ? What permission : global or in "default" group ?
The default survey group (group #1) is forced as public : always shown.

sorry, small typo, big confusion. I meant user role, not user group.
Normally, all users are in this role, so that they can create their own surveys.
After the update, all Checkboxes were marked (without me doing anything there) and I couldn't revert it. The users were able to see all other surveys and change things on the global settings.
I immediately downgraded to 4.4.1 again.
I found no bug report or topic in the forum which mentioned this.
Best Felix

I don't know what exactly you mean. Isn't my screenshot that, what you are asking for? After the update, in my screenshot all checkboxes were marked and I couldn't uncheck them (after saving, nothing happened, although the PopUp said "OK").

It does not only prevent workflow, but of course enables all user to watch every other survey and the answers.

And i have the fix (and understand what happen)
You have the other issue : bugs.limesurvey.org/view.php?id=16958
For example : you muts allow "Connect via AuthDB" to role ? Else User with role can not log in ?
It's the way you want ?
can you explain how you use role ?
(and put some real user experience on 16958: User with roles can not have more rights … )

Yes exactly. I'm not that familiar with LS, so I just thought that's the way it should be.For example : you muts allow "Connect via AuthDB" to role ? Else User with role can not log in ?
I have one admin account and several users which are all in group "default" with permission as in the screenshot above. So all users are allowed to create their own surveys and do whatever they want with them. No other permissions.can you explain how you use role ?
(and put some real user experience on 16958: User with roles can not have more rights … )
I'm quite surprised how fast all this went, Bugreport, Pull Request, etc. Thanks for the effort.
