> Key: DERBY-4156
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-4156
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 10.5.1.0
> Environment: - Windows Vista x64
> - Sun Java 6
> Reporter: Tiago R. Espinha

> While doing the buddy testing for the SQL roles, I believe I have found a bug.
> Reproduction:
> ij> connect
> 'jdbc:derby://localhost:1527/testro;user=tiago2;password=alentejo;create=true';
> ij> create table t1 (f1 int, f2 varchar(200));
> 0 rows inserted/updated/deleted
> ij> create role testCreateFirst;
> 0 rows inserted/updated/deleted
> ij> grant select on t1 to testCreateFirst;
> 0 rows inserted/updated/deleted
> ij> grant testCreateFirst to tiago;
> 0 rows inserted/updated/deleted
> ij> grant update on t1 to testWithoutCreate;
> 0 rows inserted/updated/deleted
> ij> grant testWithoutCreate to adm;
> ERROR 0P000: Invalid role specification, role does not exist:
> 'TESTWITHOUTCREATE'.
> ij> create role testWithoutCreate;
> ERROR X0Y68: User 'TESTWITHOUTCREATE' already exists.
> ---------------------8<----------------------
> This reproduction was made on a freshly created database. Basically I created
> the table, then created a role and gave it SELECT privileges on that table.
> Finally I granted the said role to a user (I'm using built-in authentication)
> and it all went smoothly.
> The problem came when I accidentally forgot to create a role and proceeded to
> grant privileges to that role. So when we grant some privilege to a
> non-existing role, instead of getting an error it all seems to go fine. It is
> when we try to grant this role to a user that we are told that the role does
> not exist, which makes sense. Still, when I try to create that role
> afterwards, I get an error message saying that an ->user<- with this username
> already exists.
> Granting privileges to a non-existing role should issue an error and instead
> it is probably causing some havoc in the database.
