#522 closed Defect (fixed)

Deleting initial admin account corrupts Elgg site

Description

One of my clients created several admin accounts and decided to delete the initial admin account (user_guid 2).

This caused numerous plugin failures, including the failure of the user admin display itself (replaced with a "Failed to load new ElggUser from GUID:3" message).

I think that either the delete should be clean or Elgg should stop this initial user account from being deleted.

(This was an Elgg 1.0 site - have not attempted to duplicate under Elgg 1.1 yet.)

  • Resolution set to fixed
  • Status changed from reopened to closed

Closed as this is now handled in user and group deletion. Deletion of initial admin will recursively delete owned data leaving a clean site. Further addressed by #755.
