Sandor Molnar commented on AMBARI-23538: ---------------------------------------- The reason is that due to a recent commit we escape the '/' character in the request body; since we use Users/XXX as keys they became Users\U002FXXX which then does not match with the allowed property IDs in UserResourceProvider. Found the offending commit in https://github.com/apache/ambari/pull/886 Let me change the check to allow the escaped IDs too. > Not able to add a user in ambari > -------------------------------- > > Key: AMBARI-23538 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-23538 > Project: Ambari > Issue Type: Bug > Components: ambari-server > Affects Versions: 2.7.0 > Reporter: Sandor Molnar > Assignee: Sandor Molnar > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 2.7.0 > > > 1) login to ambari ui with admin:admin > 2) select ADMIN -> Manage Ambari > 3) click on users section from the left pane > 4) click on Add users button > 5) fill in required details: > username: cloudbreak > password: admin > Add Roles For This user: None > is this admin user? : YES > Deactivate this user? : ACTIVE > > 6) click save > User creation error has been thrown (see screenshot) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
