    Description

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

      Steps to reproduce

      1. Start with a JIRA+Confluence OnDemand instance, where the default group is just "users" instead of "jira-users" or "confluence-users".
      2. Go to Confluence's General Configuration, change the "Site Homepage" to a space.
      3. Unless you've explictly created a group called "confluence-users" and granted it Use permission for that space, you'll receive an error:

      The following error(s) occurred:

      The XYZ space must be accessible to the confluence-users group (or anonymous view permissions must be granted) in order to be set as the Site Homepage.

      Workaround

      Manually create a group called "confluence-users" and grant it Use permission for that space. There doesn't need to be anyone actually in the group, it just needs to be granted Use permission.
