However, i can access the Projects and Latest upgrade report options from the admin section.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

This looks like Jira can't talk to its own embedded crowd, which is unusual.

Could you check

  • What user directories you are using
  • If there are any errors on any of the gadgets on your dashboard
  • Under the admin -> system info page, do you have any "modified files" listed?

Hi Nic,

Thanks for the reply!

I have been able to fix the problem creating a jira-config.properties file in my jira-home folder (/var/atlassian/application-data/jira/) and setting the property:

jira.websudo.is.disabled = true

  • We are using Delegated LDAP Authentication directory.
  • currently, My account got locked up and i cannot see dashboard. But other users can access the Jira. It displaying following error: 

    We can't log you in right now

    Please contact your administrator

I have checked with other admins they said my account is active and I have Jira-system-admin, Jira-administrator-access and Jira-software-access.

Thanks in advance,

Mani
