[Building Sakai] manage group with the new role problem in siteinfo (sakai 2.6)

[Kimberly Ma]

Hi, Folks,
This is what we found out recently : when you create a group for a site from
siteinfo, you can't add the participant with the new role.  (for example,
"Taa", the new role is site specific, meaning you only added this new role
id to this site's realm). From the log file, it states:
------------------------------------

WARN http-8080-Processor24 org.sakaiproject.authz.impl.BaseAuthzGroup -
.addUserRole: role undefined: Taa
2009-10-28 10:52:07,534  WARN http-8080-Processor22
org.sakaiproject.site.util.SiteParticipantHelper -
SiteParticipantHelper.prepareParticipants: user not defined
96c9a392-d0c0-44dc-a2fb-c77b836785a7
--------------------------------------

The way to reproduce the problem:
1. login as admin,
2. from realm, select the site using site id
3. add a new role id (i.e. Taa) for that site
4. logout and login again as site maintainer
5. assign one of the site members with this new role
6. from siteinfo, click "manage group"
7.click on "creating a new group"
8..select several site members including the member with the new role from
site membership list and move them(>) to group membership list
9. click on update
10. then come back to check the newly created group, the member with the new
role is not in there.


 I have checked the existing jira issues on "groups, roles and site" and did
not find any related, if anyone happened to see it, please let us know, I
believe it is a bug.

Thanks,
