The verify process has been updated to check if each user has a corresponding row in the Contact_ and Group_ table. If any user does not have a row in the Contact_ and Group_ table, a row will be added for the user. These rows are required by the portal to work properly.

As part of this update the following methods have been added to UserLocalService

public List<User> getNoContacts()
public List<User> getNoGroups()

and the following methods have been added to UserFinder

public java.util.List<com.liferay.portal.model.User> findByNoContacts()
public java.util.List<com.liferay.portal.model.User> findByNoGroups()
