There is supposed to be an XML-RPC call, users.close_account, to remove a user's account but it's not documented, and it doesn't work: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py", line 1199, in __call__ return self.__send(self.__name, args) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py", line 1489, in __request verbose=self.__verbose File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/kobo/xmlrpc.py", line 403, in request result = transport_class.request(self, *args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/kobo/xmlrpc.py", line 259, in _request return self._parse_response(h.getfile(), sock) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py", line 1392, in _parse_response return u.close() File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py", line 838, in close raise Fault(**self._stack[0]) xmlrpclib.Fault: <Fault 1: "<type 'exceptions.AssertionError'>:method users does not exist"> It probably just needs this set to True in users.py: class Users(AdminPage): # For XMLRPC methods in this class. exposed = False
The fix to this bug will add a new client command to close the accounts as well.

*** Bug 584503 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
While implementing the fix to this patch, it was found that jobs were not being cancelled upon account closure. This will be fixed in patch: http://gerrit.beaker-project.org/#/c/2227/ Thus, when verifying this bug, two things should be verified: 1. The sub-command, close-account 2. Also, any existing jobs that were running should be cancelled.
