sympa.pl --change_user_email no longer working with 6.2.34

6.2.34

Source

sympa.pl --change_user_email [email protected] [email protected]

should change all occurrences in Sympa of [email protected] to [email protected].

When I use the command above, and [email protected] is either an owner or editor, their address as either owner or editor is not updated. The command returns successfully, but continually checking the owner/editor fields, and only the old address shows up. I did a:

sympa.pl --dump_users --list=LIST --role='owner,editor,member'

and still the [email protected] address was listed for the owner.

I've confirmed that doing --dump_users and editing the dump file for the new email address, then doing a --restore_users works. So, that'll be my workaround for now for owners/editors.

Hi @agouaux,

• Could you please show us Sympa logs during execution of --change_user_email?
• Weren't the owner and editor addresses included from data sources?
• Were subscriber addresses succsessfully changed?

Hi @agouaux,
If possible, could you please apply this patch by PR above and check if the problem will solved?

[agouaux]

Sorry for lack of response! I'll try to answer your questions this afternoon. Thanks!

So, for the first set of questions, the log only showed that the command executed.

The owner was indeed manually subscribed and not from a data source.

Subscribers successfully changed. In fact I used the same address for an owner and subscriber, did the command, it returned success, but only subscriber changed.

I'll now apply patch and try everything again.

Just now tested with patch applied, and owner updated! Thanks!

@agouaux, Thanks for confirming. This fix will be included in the next release of Sympa.
