[jira] Commented: (MRM-1104) Removing release artifacts using WebUI

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRM-1104?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=167684#action_167684 ]

---------------------------------------

Hi Marc, I recently applied a patch for MRM-913 to be included in 1.2-M2. It still hasn't been released yet but it can be built from trunk if you'd like to try it out :)

>                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRM-1104
>             Project: Archiva
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: web application
>    Affects Versions: 1.1.3
>            Reporter: Marc Lustig
>            Priority: Critical

> AFASIK, there is currently no way to delete a release artifact using the Web-UI.
> The current solution is:
> - remove the artifact from the fs
> - run repo scan
> - run db scan
> This is a tremendous admin overhead. Even worse, it can only be done by the system-operator, not by the Archiva Admin. 
> Open for discussion: allow to manually delete ANY kind of artifact (also snaphots).
> Proposal for implementation: IMO the delete-action should not do the whole repo-scan and db-scan. Rather it should update/remove only those particular db entries which are concerned.
