[Freeipa-devel] errors while editing groups

[David O'Brien]

I created half a dozen groups for testing/doc purposes, some with no
members. When i try to edit them some curious things happen:

1. I get "500 Internal server error" when I try to deactivate a group[1]
2. sometimes I get "there was a collision" (forget words exactly), but
the update occurs anyway.
3. Sometimes I get 'Group update failed: A database error occurred. No
such object", but again the update occurred.

Mostly I just tried to change the description or name. I think once I
saw the name update but not the description? Not very scientific of me...

Apart from 1., I couldn't find anything  in the logs to indicate what
was happening.
