Error: "Profile already exists in Database" on update

[annaleevk]

Have seen this error in 3.4.2 thru 3.4.5.  I get "Profile already exists in Database" error when I try to change something on an existing profile.

When I browse the UF_Group table I see that there are 3 rows that contain the same name.  I think this is happening when I copy an existing profile.  Instead of assigning the profile the new name, it's using the name of the copied profile for the name value.

To fix it for now, I had to manually edit the name in the uf_group table.

can u please file an issue and link to this forum topic. We'll fix it in a future release. If you can work on a patch for this that would be great (and help get it into an earlier release)

Can you also copy + paste the error message during the upgrade process.

FYI, this happens in 4.0.5 also.  We just upgraded from 4.0.4.

Lobo,

I've never filed an issue before but if you tell me how to do it, I will, however, I am not a programmer so I cannot help you patch this.
