Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

["Hyzer, Chris" <>]

Can they try to retrieve the group if they get an error creating, and if the group exists, then the user needs a different name?  Or check before creating?

Do you have the group name uniqueness hook installed in your web services? I get the same response from the UI and WS. Example:

 

"There were 0 successes and 1 failures of saving groups.java.lang.RuntimeException: edu.internet2.middleware.grouper.hooks.logic.HookVeto: veto.group.unique.extension: The group ID is already in use, please use a different ID. (NS),\nProblem saving group: edu:berkeley:app:calnet:jeff-folder:jeff-test-1.”

 

We have a custom uniqueness hook that checks both grouper, AD and our namespace used by non-AD apps.

We've incorporated the hook to prevent a group of the same name but different cases from creating a group in a stem, however the Service which talks to grouper is using the Web Service and it seems to not send back why a group create failed.

 

The grouper UI says "The group ID is already in use, please use a different ID" when I try to create a group, but they are having a hard time getting a message like that from the WS call response.

 

Any tips you guys can offer?

 

Thanks
