            <title>[SERVER-13441] Inconsistent error handling in user management shell helpers</title>
                <link>https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-13441</link>
                <project id="10000" key="SERVER">Core Server</project>
                    <description>&lt;div class=&quot;panel&quot; style=&quot;background-color: #EEEEEE;border-color: #ccc;border-width: 1px;&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;panelHeader&quot; style=&quot;border-bottom-width: 1px;border-bottom-color: #ccc;background-color: #6CB33F;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Issue Status as of April 15, 2014&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;panelContent&quot; style=&quot;background-color: #EEEEEE;&quot;&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;ISSUE SUMMARY&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
User management shell helpers like &lt;tt&gt;dropUser()&lt;/tt&gt;, &lt;tt&gt;getUser()&lt;/tt&gt; and &lt;tt&gt;getRole()&lt;/tt&gt; show inconsistent behavior when a user is not found. Specifically, &lt;tt&gt;getUser()&lt;/tt&gt; and &lt;tt&gt;getRole()&lt;/tt&gt; throw an exception, but &lt;tt&gt;dropUser()&lt;/tt&gt; returns &lt;tt&gt;false&lt;/tt&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;USER IMPACT&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
Minor impact, but user interface changes slightly, which may affect users who automate or script MongoDB user management.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;WORKAROUNDS&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
None.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESOLUTION&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
Change the behavior so that &lt;tt&gt;getUser()&lt;/tt&gt; and &lt;tt&gt;getRole()&lt;/tt&gt; do not throw but instead return &lt;tt&gt;null&lt;/tt&gt; if the user does not exist.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;AFFECTED VERSIONS&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
Version 2.6.0 is affected by this bug.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;PATCHES&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
The patch is included in the 2.6.1 production release.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;h6&gt;&lt;a name=&quot;Originaldescription&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Original description&lt;/h6&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Other user management helpers such as dropUser do not throw if the user is not found - dropUser just returns false.  We should change getUser and getRole to simply return null if the user/role isn&apos;t found&lt;/p&gt;</description>
