Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

["GW Brown, Information Systems and Computing" <>]

Hi Tom,

When you get the error how does that appear - a red box with error message 
at the top of the page, or partially rendered page with `Error` in red?

The error itself suggests that there is an unresolvable subject i.e. the 
group has a Membership object which references a subject id which is no 
longer available. Running the unresolvable subject deletion utility (usdu) 
should confirm that.

If you browse to the group again and page through the members do you get 
the error without trying to delete the member again - indeed has the member 
been deleted?

I would expect that the member has been deleted and the error occurs when 
re-rendering the membership list - which ought to display a `new` member 
(from the `next` page) given that one has been removed. It may be a problem 
rendering this new member rather than a problem with the one you were 
trying to delete.

I`ve attached a replacement /WEB-INF/jsp/removableMembershipView.jsp which, 
if viewObject.subject is empty, will display `Problem rendering member 
<memberUuid>`. If you get that you can query grouper_members to see which 
subject id is pointed to by the member.

Gary
