             Summary: More comprehensive message for error message when 
updating a policy
                 Key: NIFI-7102
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-7102
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: Security
    Affects Versions: 1.9.2
            Reporter: nicolas cerutti


Hello,

 

I am facing the following issue :

A policy was created in a project Process Group for the "view the user 
interface" resource (meaning the inheritance of the parent policy has been 
overriden).

This policy was granted to 2 groups. The user and groups managed by the 
authorizations are managed by LDAP.

Since then, due to an unknown issue, the id of one of the groups is no more 
recognized by NiFi : {color:#00875a}_'Unable to find user group with id 
'43527792-a30b-3a73-aeab-60518f290c2d'_{color}

When trying to modify the policy concerned via the web UI, only the 
{color:#00875a}"Create a new policy"{color} is available.

When clicking it, the error message displays : {color:#00875a}"Found multiple 
policies for '/process-groups/dcace949-016b-1000-0000-000072d411a1' with 
'read'."{color}

If I try to access the policy with the API, the following appears : 

{color:#00875a}Unable to find user group with id 
'43527792-a30b-3a73-aeab-60518f290c2d'.{color}

 

This message is much more explicit via the API than with the Web UI.
Would it be possible to refine the message of the web UI to help analysis when 
such issue occurs ?

 

Regards,

 

Nicolas
