I don't believe this is still a problem.


To upload a CSV file of users that contain some new users and some old users works as expected

- when not enabling the 'Update users' option we get error messages about what went wrong
- when enabling the 'Update users' option we get information about what users were added and what users were updated

I didn't get any site error when uploading a CSV where there was a line
containing existing username for one user and existing email for another
user - I got the expected

Line 4 of the file specifies the email address "test03@xxxxxxxxxxx" that
is already taken by another user.

So this looks to be all working now

Title:
  Ignore duplicates in CSV upload

Status in Mahara:
  Invalid

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.
