Description François Doray

2013-11-18 14:12:56 EST

When I try to push a patch on Gerrit, I get the following error message. I signed the CLA 2 days ago, so it's probably not a cache issue.

I initially created my Eclipse account with a different email. I then changed my email to fdoray.eclipse@gmail.com using https://dev.eclipse.org/site_login/. When I check at https://projects.eclipse.org/user/cla/validate, I see that my CLA has been signed with the right email (fdoray.eclipse@gmail.com). The email displayed at https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/settings/ is also correct.

I've flushed the Gerrit caches.. can you see if that helps?

Comment 2 François Doray

Unfortunately no. I still have the same problem.

Comment 3 François Doray

I cannot work on my project because of this problem.

I think there were some leftover artifacts of your old email address in the Gerrit account_external_ids table which were confusing Gerrit.  I've updated them to use your new email address.  Can you log out and log into Gerrit again and see if it works now?

Comment 5 François Doray

Yes, it works. Thank you.

Closing as Fixed as the initial issue from Comment 0 seems to have been resolved.
