User settings window hangs

[Gyzes]

k8s: v1.22.2 permission-manager: v1.7.1-rc1

Error process:

1. Create a user and give rights to namespace
2. Remove namespace
3. Open the user for editing
4. The endless process of "... loading" and the out of memory error

Found error correction process:

1. Remove CustomResourceDefinitions
2. Create user again

Hi @Gyzes ! Thanks for reporting this issue. I can replicate the bug. The frontend hangs, backend seems to be OK though.

The same here. It seems all versions starting from 1.5.1 are affected. However, the workaround mentioned by @Gyzes worked out.

I might add some clarity — we'd stumbled onto the same UI behavior & established that it is was caused when there was a change in naming pattern of permissionmanagerusers.permissionmanager.users resources:

• older versions (up to 1.6.0) create permissionmanager.user.<username> — check out here
• latest versions create permissionmanagerusers.permissionmanager.user.<username> — this is set by ResourcePrefix variable here, variable itselft is defined here

So when, e.g., one

• deploys an older version of PM
• creates users
• upgrades the version of PM
• deletes a previously created user,

this user's page becomes inaccessible.

The workaround was to manually rename all permissionmanagerusers.permissionmanager.users resources to a pattern, suitable for the current permission-manager version.

So it's likely that user page starts to load endlessly whenever there's a 404 from k8s API.

First of all, thank you for the issue and especially for waiting. We are back with active permission-manager development. I will take charge of the issue, maybe if we can release the fix for v1.8.0. Good catch ✌🏽
