Cannot Delete Community which has two or more levels of SubCommunities
----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: DS-596
                 URL: http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-596
             Project: DSpace 1.x
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.6.1
         Environment: Any
            Reporter: Tim Donohue


If you have a Community which has two or more levels of subcommunities, a 
database error will be thrown when you attempt to delete it.

As an example, suppose you have the following hierarchy:

Community 1
      -  Sub-Community 1.1
             - Sub-Sub-Community 1.1.1

In that example, if you attempt to delete "Community 1", then  you will end up 
receiving a "PSQLException" similar to the following:

org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: update or delete on table "community" 
violates foreign key constraint "com2com_child_fk" on table 
"community2community"
Detail: Key (community_id)=(SOME_ID) is still referenced from table 
"community2community".

(Where "SOME_ID" will be the internal ID of the "Sub-Community 1.1)

Essentially, it looks like the Sub-Community 1.1 is unable to be deleted as its 
ID is not removed from community2community.

You can see this error by logging in as an Admin and  trying to delete the 
following Top-Level Community on the Demo Server (it has both a sub-community & 
a sub-sub-community):
http://demo.dspace.org/xmlui/handle/10673/203

However, it's worth noting that Community deletion works fine if you only have 
"Sub-Communities" and do not have an "Sub-Sub-Communities".

I haven't had a chance to figure out *why* this happens -- just wanted to note 
that it is happening.

Here's a slightly larger Java stacktrace:

org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: update or delete on table "community" 
violates foreign key constraint "com2com_child_fk" on table 
"community2community"
  Detail: Key (community_id)=(42) is still referenced from table 
"community2community".
