I created a user that I now want to remove. The FAQ says I cannot delete a
user (why?) but I can block the user. So, I tried to block the user and got
this error:
Query failed: ERROR: invalid input syntax for type cidr
I entered a username instead of an ip address to block. The username was used
in place of the ip address and the php code tried to put the username into
the ipb_address field of the ipblocks table which, is of type cidr. So, the
insert fails. Any ideas on fixing this? I did not see a bug for this in
bugzilla. It is a postgresql backend, if that makes a difference.
I found the user record in the mwuser table. Is it possible to delete this
record without causing problems elsewhere in the application?
Thanks,
Tom
