Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[Loris Bennett <>]

OK, I have found what was causing the trouble. The following was written
to grouper_error.log:

        2008-07-04 10:47:05,274: unable to export to xml: No results:
        searchSubject searchValue: 332279

Something, probably my fiddling around with sources.xml, had invalidated
some IDs used by search subject. I found several groups, the members of
which could not be displayed, and deleted these. After that the export
worked.

However, this error situation causes the write-operation to fail at a
seemingly random point:

           ...
           <internalAttributes>
            <internalAttribute
name='parentStem'>TestFolder:subfolder</internalAttribute>
            <internalAttribute name='createSubject'>
              <subject id='GrouperSystem' type='application'
source='g:isa'/>
            </internalAttribute>
            <internalAttribute
name='createTime'>1212134050347</internalAttribute> <!-- Fri May 30
09:54:10 CEST 2008 -->
            <internalAttribute name='modifySubject'>
              <subject id='GrouperSystem' type='application'
source='g:isa'/>
            </internalAttri
(EOF)

which is obviously not desirable. Perhaps somebody can look into this
scenario. I shall try to find what actually caused the IDs to become
invalidated.
