Issue

  • There are a large number of records on the SamlSpSession table, which is causing issues with my upgrade.

Environment

  • Portal 6.2
  • DXP 7.2
  • All DXP versions

Resolution

  • Extra records can be removed using the attached groovy script (this script has been verified on Portal 6.2 and DXP 7.2, but it may run on other Liferay versions).

NOTE: Be sure to take a backup of your database prior to making any changes. Always test the changes in a lower environment before making changes in production.

Making manual changes to the database is not recommended, and should be carefully assessed based on your own business needs and risk factors. Any such operation is performed at the sole discretion of your own team.
