---------------------------------
Summary: Sentry Policy Service does not treat role names as case
insensitive
Key: SENTRY-177
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SENTRY-177
Project: Sentry
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.3.0
Reporter: Lenni Kuff
The Sentry Policy Service does not treat role names as case insensitive. Role
names are always stored in lowercase, but the checks to see if a role exists
are done in a case sensitive fashion. This leads to lots of errors about roles
not existing when they actually do.
For example:
{code}
SentryPolicyServiceClient client = new SentryPolicyServiceClient(conf);
Set<String> userGroupNames = Sets.newHashSet();
userGroupNames.add("lskuff");
String roleName = "newRole";
client.createRole("lskuff", userGroupNames, roleName);
// Fails with role does not exist error message since "newRole" is stored as
"newrole"
client.grantRoleToGroup("lskuff", userGroupNames,
"lskuff", roleName);
{code}
