[CPS-devel] acl_users.getUserById always returns a valid user.

[Jose Luis de la Rosa Triviño]

Hello everybody,

I have a CPS site using a meta directory for members with an sql 
directory and zodb directory as backing directories. The fact is that 
when a user tries to login the method isMemberIdAllowed of 
CPSRegistrationTool always says 0 because membership.getMemberById 
always returns a not None user. I have been debugging and even acl_users 
returns a user even if the identifier of the user does not exists.

May somebody help me on this?

This are some lines of the debugging tests:

{{{
(Pdb) list
 74                 return 0
 75             if not match(self.allowed_member_id_pattern, id):
 76                 return 0
 77             membership = getToolByName(self, 'portal_membership')
 78             import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
 79  ->         if (membership.getMemberById(id) is not None
 80                     # Added: no duplicate home folder
 81                     or membership.homeFolderExists(id)):
 82                 return 0
 83             return 1
 84
(Pdb) membership.acl_users.getUserById('whateverMemberThatDoesNotExist')
<CPSUser whateverMemberThatDoesNotExist>
(Pdb) membership.acl_users.getUserById('whateverMemberThatDoesNotExist')
<CPSUser whateverMemberThatDoesNotExist>
(Pdb) membership._huntUser('whateverMemberThatDoesNotExist', membership)
<CPSUser whateverMemberThatDoesNotExist>
(Pdb) membership.getMemberById('whateverMemberThatDoesNotExist')
<CPSMemberData at 
/portalmir/portal_memberdata/whateverMemberThatDoesNotExist used for 
/portalmir/acl_users>
(Pdb)
}}}

Thank you very much.

Jose Luis.
