# 3736 Trying to Drop a User that has Granted Privileges on Database Objects Causes Dependency Error

I was trying to drop a user from the Server and got a #201 error saying: “The user James in the configuration EDBConfig cannot be dropped because it is still referenced by the table BHLoc in the schema Default”. (BHLoc is the first table in our DB).


Comments Comments and Workarounds
This was an issue with EDB properly clearing out the "granted by" during the user drop, so it ends up tripping up the dependency checks that occur after (but before the actual drop occurs).

The workaround is to revoke any privileges granted by the user before trying to drop the user.


Resolution Resolution
Fixed Problem on 1/6/2013 in version 2.12 build 1
