Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[Jeff McCullough <>]

When a user has update privs in a group and tries to add other members with privs (say update). The following error is displayed.

Error: null, group name: edu:berkeley:org:isp-folder:isp-admin, subject: Subject id: 322584, sourceId: ldap, privilege: update, Problem in HibernateSession: HibernateSession (12d94368): notNew, notReadonly, READ_WRITE_NEW, activeTransaction, session (130af474), Problem in HibernateSession: HibernateSession (54757c6): new, notReadonly, READ_WRITE_NEW, notActiveTransaction, session (130af474), Problem calling method addMemberSubmit on edu.internet2.middleware.grouper.grouperUi.serviceLogic.UiV2Group

Here is the group showing the privs:

Here is the attempted addition (The acting user is Test, Emp-Faculty):

While I realize that “update” priv really only allows membership updates, shouldn’t it be able to extend update  privs to other members? If not, then maybe a more appropriate message is in order. Something like, “You need to have admin privs to extend privs to others.” Thoughts?
