problem migrating users/groups aem 6.1

Avatar

Level 2

hello, when trying to migrate a set of users and groups I get this error in package manager:

"org.apache.jackrabbit.vault.packaging.PackageException: javax.jcr.nodetype.ConstraintViolationException: OakConstraint0027: The admin user cannot be removed.

 

Am hoping someone has a set of guidelines for migrating users from one 6.1 author to another.

Thanks

This is a constraint, please have a look at the documentation :- https://jackrabbit.apache.org/oak/docs/security/user.html

 and as mentioned by Sham and Opkar, exclude admin user and tokens using Package Manager filter.

I hope this would help you.

Thanks and Regards

Exclude admin user using package manager filter.

Also, make sure ".tokens" are excluded from all the user folders

Do you have a definitive guideline over it?

Something like this should be followed

Below are the exclude filters

Exclude tokens, excluding admin and anonymous user

     
exclude/home/users/.*/.tokens
     
exclude/home/users/Q/QY5FIMXeQIbGpwZtQ3Dv
     
exclude/home/users/K/Kj1406Qo9IDODc_nk5Ib

 
/home/users/Q/QY5FIMXeQIbGpwZtQ3Dv – admin user on the system where I am creating the package
/home/users/K/Kj1406Qo9IDODc_nk5Ib – anonymous user on the system where I am creating the package
