  (Asked by: username_0 on 2018-02-06)
  
  CMS: Drupal 7.56 (shared hosting at Siteground; cpanel/phpmyadmin access)
  Civicrm version: 4.6.34 (followng problem follows recent update)
  
  I (admin 1 - all civicrm persmissions) cannot access Contacts > Manage Groups. Receive the following screen message:

  On selecting 'Return to home page' link, the following errors show:

  Group contacts can be searched (through Contact > Find Contacts > enter group name in search box). Result provides url like:

  [Edit]: having logged out of CiviCRM and returned, receive following message (civi alert message in top right): "Count data for smart groups is not currently calculated. You may click Update Smart Groups to generate it. Be aware this can cause significant server load".
  
  [Edit 2]: Drupal error logs show:

  And:
  
  ```
  $Fatal Error Details = Array ( [message] => id (value: 1006'A=0) is not of the type Positive [code] => )
  
  ```
  
  Any pointers most gratefully received.

  After putting site into maintenance mode, enabling Debugging and Error handling, it became clear that this was related to the Mailchimp extension. I have disabled the extension and will reconfigure. Manage Groups now fine.
  Apologies for wasting anyone's time.
