RuntimeException upon site "install from config" with multiple config import files (wrong sort order)

Created on 6 March 2024, 4 months ago

Problem/Motivation

When deploying an existing site configuration to a new site installation, the following exception is thrown:
RuntimeException: Adding non-existent permissions to a role is not allowed. The incorrect permissions are "create user_status workflow_transition"

This issue occurs because Drupal is unaware that the dynamic permission has a dependency on the workflow type and attempts to import the permission before the respective workflow type is created.

A similar error was encountered previously in πŸ› RuntimeException: Adding non-existent permissions to a role is not allowed Fixed . However, because it was resolved by adding a hook_ENTITY_TYPE_predelete to remove the permission from the user, it only handles the case of a workflow type being deleted.

Steps to reproduce

  1. create a workflow type.
  2. give permission 'Participate in workflow' to the user
  3. export the site configuration
  4. drop the database and perform a new site install from config using drush si --existing-config

Proposed resolution

Add a dependency between the dynamic permission and the respective workflow type so that Drupal resolves the configuration import sequence correctly, as per change-record Permissions can define dependencies β†’
