Target imports and write permissions

Hi there!

A situation that has occurred a few times for us is that, when using command-line importing with a regex target (something like "\"regex:^.*/(?<Container1>.*?)\" ", the regex will match an existing dataset from another user on the user's active group, but if that happens for a read-only group the import fails. Is there any way of avoiding this? The only solution we have at the moment is changing it to "\"regex:@name:^.*/(?<Container1>.*?)\" ", which will create a new dataset even if that user already has one with the same name, which is also not ideal.

Thanks in advance!

Erick

Dear Erick,

Thank you for your bug report. It's a known problem and I am afraid that we don't have any better workarounds in mind. It's definitely one of the higher priority fixes we'll have to make though and we have an idea how to do it. In the meantime, sorry that you're running into it; we appreciate that it's a pain.

Cheers,
Mark

Dear Erick,

It will not be released for weeks yet as it is very much a work in progress at present but this bug should be fixed in OMERO 5.5.0.

Cheers,
Mark
