Wojciech,
it could be that the provisioning of roles encountered a problem (e.g.
maybe an account could not be created somewhere). If there were no
approvals, the operation would execute completely on the foreground and
you would see the error message in a standard way via GUI. But in the
approval case, the operation is executed in a task on background. So
errors are written to the log.
Oskar asked here about the possibility of configuring behavior of tasks
when a problem is encountered. This is exactly this case. And what would
be needed as well is somehow reporting the problem e.g. to original
requester. Notifications are designed to provide that, but I am not sure
if all the required mechanisms are in place. It would be nice to try that.
Best regards,
