Can't save entity as group, because user can't be subscribed to group and become a manager.
im seeing this issue on a clean install of drupal 7.41 with og 7.x-2.7+43-dev
my non-admin users who are already subscribed to a group of a specific content type can't create new groups of the same content for the reason given in the title of this post.
when users try to create their own groups they see this error. either the error is inaccurate or this is a design flaw as I cant think of a reason why a subscriber of one group bundle (of a particular content-type) cant be a manager of another (group bundle).
marking as critical as i was expecting (and need) a group eco-system where users can simultaneously be managers and members of different groups (derived from a single entity type).
i can eliminate the problem by switching off the field_access module. i also see that the UI for permissions seems to mix up fields across different group content types (allowing me to set permissions on fields that are not assigned to specific types). i.e. there appears to be some cross dependencies between disparate group types.
I am seeing this error even when I haven't turned on the field access module inside OG. This primarily happens when an admin user attempts to create a group but has already done so prior. In other words, admin users can't create more than one group?
This issue appears to have a history but no solution yet.

Wondering if this is related. I have seen a similar error like this one:
