Topic: User not found

We use shibboleth to authenticate our users.
One user has created dataset sometime ago, but now his account seems to disappear. It still shows on dashboard, and he can still login. But, we can't assign him to any dataset (including one that he created). User Traces shows "ERROR, cannot get traces". Delete User shows "ERROR, user not found".

Anyone with similar experience? Do we need to modify the authenticateduser table? :cold_sweat:

@Yuyun Wirawati very strange. Can the user create a draft dataset?

@Philip Durbin ๐Ÿš€ , user could create a new dataverse and dataset. But, he is not assigned an Admin role by default after creation:

We also could not manually assign Admin or any role to him (but, able to select his name as user):
