+title: Missing Permissions system_exception events
+---
+
+This error can occur during initial setup, when authentik bootstraps the embedded Outpost, while the database migrations are not finished yet.
+
+The error should be temporary and not occur after initial installation.
+
+If it does, you can run the following command to ensure all permissions exist:
+
+```
+docker-compose run --rm worker repair_permissions
+# Or for kubernetes
+kubectl exec -it authentik-worker-.... -- ak repair_permissions
+```
+
+If the error persists after running this command, please open an Issue on [GitHub](https://github.com/goauthentik/authentik/issues/)
