      1. Create a course and set its shortname to "test"
      2. Create a csv file with the following content:

      coursename,groupname,description
      		 
      test,TestGroup2,This is a test group

      3. Enter the course you created at step 1 and go to users > groups page.
      4. Click on the "Import group" button and import the file created at step 2.
      5. The group should be imported successfully.

      I have a course with a shortname of "test" and an idnumber of "test" - when trying to import a group using the following in a csv file:

      coursename,groupname,description
      test,TestGroup2,This is a test group

      I get this error:

      Field "0" does not exist in table "course"

      Stack trace:

      line 545 of /lib/dml/moodle_database.php: dml_exception thrown
      line 1332 of /lib/dml/moodle_database.php: call to moodle_database->where_clause()
      line 148 of /group/import.php: call to moodle_database->get_record()

      However, if I change the .csv to this:

      idnumber,groupname,description
      test,TestGroup2,This is a test group

      the group imports successfully. Perhaps courseid is not being set when using coursename?
