[Bug 1354222] Re: Files within a group aren't deleted after deleting the group

 

I reproduced this using Christian's method.
These files seem to stay in the depths of maharadata forever. Cron doesnt clean anything.
We are planning on using mahara for all of our students meaning tons of GB added each semester.

I'd highly appreciate if the files were deleted, too when a group is
deleted.

Kind regards
Lars

Title:
  Files within a group aren't deleted after deleting the group

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  If you create a group that contains any files (e.g. image, file) and
  then delete that group you should see a warning message. In addition,
  the files are not deleted although the group is (or marked as deleted)

  To reproduce (Mahara master):

  1.- Click on the 'Group' tab and create a group
  2.- Click on the 'Files' tab and add a file or image
  3.- Delete the group and you should see the warning. To check that the added files/images weren't deleted you can check out the 'artefact_file_files' table.

  Is this a bug or is it an intended behaviour? If it is a bug I could
  provide a patch for review.

  
  Cheers,
  Moises
