Deleting confluence-users group lead to problems

    Description

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

      If you are using Confluence's internal directory and you delete the group confluence-users, when you try to create a new user you get the error:

      com.atlassian.confluence.core.InsufficientPrivilegeException: User [admin] does not have the required privileges.
at com.atlassian.confluence.user.DefaultUserAccessor.addMembership(DefaultUserAccessor.java:118)

      According to the manual:

      confluence-users: This is the default group for all new users. Permissions you assign to this group will be assigned to all newly signed-up users of Confluence.

      If this group is needed to create users (in the internal directory) Confluence should not allow its deletion.

      Other approaches to this issue could be to allow user creation without any membership or allow to change the default membership for new users.
