Hello,

In my debug database copy, I see that, too.

I did the same and the name becomes "Error" just fine. So, I'm sorry but
I can't reproduce this despite having the exact database copy and
server-side code.

Let me try a lucky shot: you do realise that after taking control of the
inst, there are *two* red buttons? One is "Delete IdP", the other "Reset
all IdP settings"?

I'm asking because the latter does exactly what you describe above: it
removes all attributes so that you can start from scratch. It maintains
the entry as such though, so the IdP inst_id remains and the ownership
of administrators also stays the same.

Only the "Delete IdP" button really purges the IdP everywhere (and then
you need to re-create it by inviting a new primary administrator).

Hate to ask it, but: are you really sure you hit the "Delete" button,
and not by accident the "Reset" one?

IFAICT, we didn't actually do the deletion by hand in the DB, so you
have another chance to do it via UI.

Greetings,

Stefan Winter
