Unable to adjust tenant tags if tenant it was cloned from was deleted

Octopus Server

Hello,

I don’t know if this issue was reported by anybody yet or has been fixed in a newer release (we are a few versions behind), but I found that you are not able to adjust the tenant tags if the tenant it was cloned from was deleted. Here’s the steps I followed:

  1. Create a tenant in Octopus and place some tags on it.
  2. Clone a new tenant from the one in step 1.
  3. Delete the tenant in step 1. Here’s the screenshot from what I see on the tenant settings from step 2:

  1. Try to adjust the tags from the tenant created in step 2. You will get an error message stating that “one or more referenced resources do not exist”.

The workaround I found was to delete the value from the Tenant.ClonedFromTenantId column directly in the database on the tenant I created in step 2.

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Thanks,

Thanks Kenny!

Looking forward to a fix in a newer version. Fixing it in SQL is pretty easy to do, so we’ll use that as a workaround for now.

Thanks,
