Details

    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

    Description

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      When Confluence is connected with Crowd and Crowd fails during the time that a user is using Confluence, the following stacktrace is displayed : 

      com.atlassian.crowd.exception.runtime.CommunicationException
	at com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.core.CrowdServiceImpl.convertOperationFailedException(CrowdServiceImpl.java:866)
	at com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.core.CrowdServiceImpl.authenticate(CrowdServiceImpl.java:79)
	at com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.core.DelegatingCrowdService.authenticate(DelegatingCrowdService.java:35)
	at com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.core.FilteredCrowdServiceImpl.authenticate(FilteredCrowdServiceImpl.java:51)
	at com.atlassian.jira.security.login.LoginManagerImpl$InternalStaticDependencies.authenticate(LoginManagerImpl.java:415)

      Steps to reproduce :

      • Integrate Confluence with Crowd
      • Login to Confluence with a user from Crowd
      • Shutdown Crowd
      • Try to perform some action on Confluence.

      Confluence should catch the Crowd exception in a better way and communicate to the user that the Crowd server is no longer accessible.
