Hi Mark,

Thanks for your reply! I always remove the permissions when people leave the 
organization. I thought there was a way to remove their IDs as well but I guess 
it is better to keep them in the system. Maybe this can added as a new feature 
in future DSpace releases? No? Thanks again.

Thanks to Jose and Monica who also replied.

Fang,

This is not the right direction, altering the eperson2group relationship will 
not impact this foreign key constraint.

The Eperson is set as the owner in the Item record they submitted. This is the 
constraint and its in the item table. Its generally better to just disable the 
login of the eperson.  For database integrity and expected behavior of DSpace I 
don't recommend removing the user.

Where is that epersongroup2eperson table located? I can only access and manage 
the front end of DSpace.

So that person’s eperson_id does not exists in epersongroup2eperson table?

Hi Jose,

Thanks for your reply! I did make sure to remove the submitters from the groups 
they belonged to. Now they only belong to anonymous but I still cannot delete 
them…

I’m not sure this is the right answer to your question, but I suspect you still 
have that person assigned as a submitter to some collection, so get rid of them 
from that group, and then try to delete that eperson.

Subject: [Dspace-general] Delete E-persons who have submitted items to DSpace

Hi All,

I am sorry if this question has been asked a million times. Is there a way to 
delete E-persons who have submitted items to DSpace? It doesn’t seem like I 
have that option under the E-person Management tool when logged in as admin. I 
could delete any regular users but not the ones who were submitters before. I 
did search the archives of the DSpace mailinglist. Someone asked this question 
back in 2004 but there was no answer to his question.

I’d appreciate it if you could offer any help. Thank you so much!
