radosgw-admin user create error message is confusing if user with supplied email address already exists

Added by Matthew Vernon about 3 years ago. Updated about 3 years ago.


Description

Hi,

If you try and create an S3 user account with an email address that's already in use, you get a very confusing error message.

Suppose that bar@domain is already in use for an S3 account uid=baz

radosgw-admin user create --uid=foo --display-name=Foo --email=bar@domain

will return something like:

could not create user: unable to parse parameters, user id mismatch, operation id: baz does not match: foo

...which is pretty confusing.

I think I have a patch to make the error message more helpful, but thought I should put in a tracker issue in the mean time. I found this in Luminous, but it's still present in master.
