Cannot disable or remove user in Confluence when user management is delegated to LDAP

XMLWordPrintable

      When using Confluence with delegated LDAP user management, if the configuration is not set to READ/WRITE,
      Confluence refuses to disable or remove a user.

      What happens is that Confluence tries to disable the user in LDAP, even in READ ONLY mode and thus an exception is given:

      User "xxxxxx" could not be disabled. The directory may be read-only.

      Even if the user hasn't contributed with any content, it becomes unable to be disabled unless using READ/WRITE configuration.

      Update

      This was closed as not a bug, because this behaviour is by design. The option to disable a user in a Read Only directory was removed in 5.1.4. We have opened a feature request to allow disabling of users in a Read Only directory here.
