Fri, 10 Apr 2026 04:38:51 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6967 user data removal patch If removeUser() is not able to remove user data, it should not return false, because drivers that depend on it stops further removal of a user from other backends. Mon, 23 Jun 2008 19:17:33 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6967#t46736 No, ignoring any errors isn't the way to go here - instead, if the process should _really_ continue, the calling code should log the result and then continue. Mon, 23 Jun 2008 20:37:20 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6967#t46740 Oh, this is just for the SQL driver - I misunderstood. What sort of dependencies are you talking about, though - is this cyrus again? Mon, 23 Jun 2008 20:38:55 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6967#t46741 Yep, it's Cyrus. The question is: do we consider user data as _vital_ part of user removal process? I don't see why it should be. Mon, 23 Jun 2008 20:41:36 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6967#t46742 We should not stop the removal process if removeUserData fails, but I'm with Chuck here, we should still raise a warning message, and then continue. Tue, 24 Jun 2008 07:55:04 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6967#t46756 Well, PEAR::Error is returned in applications's removeUserData anyway except that in notification message it's not horde.warning, it's horde.error. Tue, 24 Jun 2008 09:13:11 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6967#t46759 How, if the removeUserData() implementations don't return an error? Thu, 26 Jun 2008 10:28:58 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6967#t46837 Sorry, I don't understand. What exactly do you mean? Thu, 26 Jun 2008 10:31:19 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6967#t46838 As far as I understand from Chuck's comment, you only need this because you are using the cyrsql driver and don't want to stop removing the user if parent::removeUser() is returning an error due to the removeUserData() call in the sql driver. Is this correct? But you patch unconditionally removes returning errors from Auth_sql::removeUser() so this won't report any errors for people using the sql driver directly. This is of course not acceptable.

This is of course not acceptable. Ghm, correct me if I'm wrong but isn't application's removeUserData() call reports these errors anyway? With my patch and *without* http://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6968 patches I'm still getting errors from nag, mnemo etc. BUT the user is removed succefully from the backend. What is the difference between calling removeUser() from Auth_cyrsql and Auth_sql? As I see in the source it executes exactly the same API call in the needed applications.

With my patch and *without* Yes, but it no longer is passed through Auth_sql::removeUser() to the admin interface calling removeUser(). Only if using the cyrsql driver, but not if using the sql driver. Thu, 26 Jun 2008 11:38:15 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6967#t46851 Ah, OK. What could be a possible compromise here? Thu, 26 Jun 2008 11:54:49 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6967#t46852 You would have to refactor the removeUser() methods. Either split off the actual user removal into a separate method, say _removeUser() and call that from cyrsql instead of parent::removeUser(), or add an additional parameter to Auth_sql::removeUser() to *not* run removeUserData(), and set this parameter when called from Auth_cyrsql. The first one is cleaner IMO. Thu, 26 Jun 2008 12:49:08 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6967#t46856 Ping? Mon, 30 Jun 2008 19:56:59 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6967#t47044 Ping again? Sun, 13 Jul 2008 09:18:42 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6967#t47488 Sorry for the delay, very busy pas two weeks here. I think we can mark this as "Not a bug" because I've already made CyrSQL not extend from SQL driver. Will upload it to the new ticket shortly, after someone will answer my question about it in the dev@ list. Mon, 14 Jul 2008 07:11:10 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/6967#t47503
