Any chance you added your user to the User group (at the top of the
tree, and which has no parent group)?  My theory is that it's either
that, or there is a group mentioned in the JS that does not exist in
the database.  If it's the former, that User group is mainly intended
to be a parent group for others, such as Patron and Staff.
