[Bug 731647] Re: Ignore duplicates in CSV upload

 

Also related to this, is that when you try to upload a file that
contains duplicate users, it generates a warning message:

[WAR] e8 (lib/mahara.php:1123) Object of class stdClass could not be converted to string
Call stack (most recent first):

    log_message("Object of class stdClass could not be converted to...", 8, true, true, "/home/aaronw/www/mahara/htdocs/lib/mahara.php", 1123) at /home/aaronw/www/mahara/htdocs/lib/errors.php:446

We should clean that up.

Title:
  Ignore duplicates in CSV upload

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When an institution wants to upload their users via a csv file, but
  some of their users already have a Mahara account, i.e. the email
  address already exists in Mahara, an error message is returned and no
  new user accounts are created.

  Instead, only these duplicates should be ignored and all other
  accounts should be created. Thus, when a csv file is uploaded and
  existing accounts / email addresses are encountered, convert the error
  message into a warning that is printed to the screen and keep going
  with the account creation.
