      Enable external database authentication, also external database enrolment, create some data to the external database, and make some logins throught a user using this method. You should see the role_assignmets table recreating the instances on every login.

      The error I found is uppon line 186 @ /enrol/database/lib.php.
      Where it reads:
      "if (in_array($r->id, $roles)) {"
      it should be
      "if (in_array($r->roleid, $roles)) {"

      Description

      When we enable External Database Enrolment, every role_assignmet is reset for each user, each time he logs in. The result of this bug is an unnecessary increasing ID on table role_assignments.
