Description:
Users experience the following exception when importing an LDAP user who's screen name is the same as a site's friendly URL:
com.liferay.portal.GroupFriendlyURLException
at com.liferay.portal.service.impl.UserLocalServiceImpl.validateScreenName(UserLocalServiceImpl.java:6238)
at com.liferay.portal.service.impl.UserLocalServiceImpl.validate(UserLocalServiceImpl.java:5949)
at com.liferay.portal.service.impl.UserLocalServiceImpl.addUserWithWorkflow(UserLocalServiceImpl.java:746)
at com.liferay.portal.service.impl.UserLocalServiceImpl.addUser(UserLocalServiceImpl.java:608)
This error is unclear and has brought on some confusion. Improved logging could help to inform users of what the exception means which would reduce confusion.
Steps To Reproduce:
- Startup Liferay 6.2 SP9
- Create a site with the name "justin"
- Create an LDAP user with the screen name of "justin"
- Setup Liferay to connect to the LDAP server
- Attempt to import an LDAP user
Expected Results:
The user fails to import and the exception explains that the site URL or screen name requires modification.
Actual Results:
The user fails to import and the above exception is thrown which confuses clients.
