Rocket.chat: Issue while changing profile username

[royalaid]

Your Rocket.Chat version: (make sure you are running the latest)
0.36
Whenever I got to change my username in RC I get the following error but the old messages change names.

Exception while invoking method 'saveUserProfile' MongoError: The positional operator did not find the match needed from the query.

I am having the same issue with the same build. Just want to follow this thread for any updates.

Same here:

@RocketChat/core I experienced this the other day as well. It will get through the process of changing it but then the error happens and now you've got messages with the new username yet when you send messages you've still got your old username.

[subesokun]

I'm currently in the process of migrating all self-registered users to LDAP in our Rocket.Chat instance but therefore a bunch of users needs to be renamed so this issue currently blocks the user migration :(

[rodrigok]

Fixed via https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat/pull/4122 in develop right now, will be available in version 0.39.0

[Patrick-Remy]

For me it's also present in version 0.64.2 for all users.

[indikatordesign]

Here too. Cannot change usernames from Members as an Admin. Latest version.
