[Deploying Sakai] External users provided by LDAP cleanup

Tue Aug 2 02:11:10 PDT 2011

Steve, J-F

Screenie attached.

I tried removing the removed users from SAKAI_USER_ID_MAP but now all that
happens is that the error messages after the crash no longer have the EID's
but the User ID's which I assume are in each site's configuration for
participants.

Surely if a user no longer exists in SAKAI_USER or in the SAKAI_USER_ID_MAP
it should automatically be removed from the participant list of any site?

The 1100+ errors now dumped look like this:
2011-08-02 10:54:02,797  WARN http-8080-Processor20
org.sakaiproject.site.util.SiteParticipantHelper -
SiteParticipantHelper.prepareParticipants: user not defined

org.sakaiproject.site.util.SiteParticipantHelper -

Reading up on increasing the debut level.
