Problem with jackrabbit user deletion

Trying to delete an user from the repository, I´ve found that, if there are ACE´s associating the user and a jcr node, the user is deleted but the ACE´s aren´t, so when I try to get the ACL from the node, this exception is thrown:

 

org.apache.jackrabbit.api.security.principal.NoSuchPrincipalException: Unknown principal userName

        at org.apache.jackrabbit.core.security.principal.PrincipalManagerImpl.getPrincipal(PrincipalManagerImpl.java:75)

        at org.apache.jackrabbit.core.security.authorization.acl.ACLTemplate.<init>(ACLTemplate.java:108)

        at org.apache.jackrabbit.core.security.authorization.acl.ACLEditor.getACL(ACLEditor.java:85)

        at org.apache.jackrabbit.core.security.authorization.acl.ACLEditor.editAccessControlPolicies(ACLEditor.java:117)

        at org.apache.jackrabbit.core.security.DefaultAccessManager.getApplicablePolicies(DefaultAccessManager.java:327)

(here is where I invoke accessControlManager.getApplicablePolicies(resourcePath) to get the policies relative to the node referenced by resourcePath, and userName is the user I´ve just deleted).

 

Do you know any solution or workaround for this issue?

 

Thank you in advance.

PS: the version of JackRabbit I´m using is 1.5.0

Hi,
the problem seems to be fixed in the trunk, but is not part of the
current releases. Have a look at

http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/jackrabbit/trunk/jackrabbit-core/src/main/java/org/apache/jackrabbit/core/security/authorization/acl/ACLTemplate.java?revision=713975&view=markup

Now a check is performed, if the principal is there, and if not, it is
created on the fly but not persisted, just to be able to load the ACL.

Regards,
Lars
