No "New Survey" button after migration to 1.5

@catalry
CRITICAL: After migration to 1.5 in the user interface there is no 'New Survey' button neither for form managers nor for the admin.
In the clear new instance of 1.5 the button is visible

To Reproduce
Upgrade from 1.4.1 to 1.5

IMHO some user right is not added/imported/updated

[moniquewiza]

All users in this condition:
(menu.jsp:47) <c:if test="${USER.formPrivilege > 0 && USER.canCreateSurveys}">
have USER.canCreateSurveys=false

Again, IM(very)HO this is related to "Setting.CreateSurveysForExternalsDisabled)" but I did not found where this setting is set (properties? db?)

[moniquewiza]

I've found setting in the db and set up to true which solved the issue with the button. Still don't know where to configure it and if this should not be always TRUE for oss setups?

BTW, during the upgrade the role ECAccess is added to 'globalroles' in ROLE_PRIVILEGES column, but the role ECAccess is not created anywhere.

>> That role is not used in the OSS version but in the “EC” version. And as both use the same code base, the role exists but has no effect.

Dear @wojciechwiza ,
Indeed we had to modify the behaviour of the tool using a databse flag. I guess you are right, this behaviour should be editable from the spring properties and set to true for the oss version.

Ticket 7295 created for this improvement.
