Deleted group still assigned to role. Can't remove group from role as it errors.

Question

I deleted a group (replacing it with a new one since I can't edit the previous groups name).  After deleting I browsed to a project role page to re-assign the new group and noticed the old group was still assigned.  When I tried to delete it it gives this error.

Hi. Do what ManuR suggested.

Hello Do we have an answer to this? i cannot remove a group from permissions page on any project.

Hi Zane,

Could you try re-adding this group again from the User management and see if that allows you to remove that group from the project role?

If this works, you will just have to remove that group again once you are done :)

Cheers,
Manu
