We are testing an excercise of renaming users on JIRA. We are trying to do a directory change where users get different usernames upon the change. All past history, dashboards, queries, etc. must retain at each user (person) upon the change.
To get this done, we used the Groovy Runner plug-in. There is a one canned script provided to rename/ merge users. However, when using this to rename users, sometimes user rename does not happen. Seems it performs updates on JIRA database partially -- eg. JIRAISSUE table is not updated, PROJECTROLEACTOR table is updated, CWD_USER table is not updated. Provided the statcktrace below, would you be able to help me to find any causes for this behaviour?
Please leave a comment if you need any additional information.
Attached is the stacktrace (log-rename-user.txt) . (I had to mask some of the words/ phrases as I'm putting the whole thing on the Internet)
