Confluence is not using the seraph logout url to define how to log out.

XMLWordPrintable

      We need to update our use of seraph to delegate the definition of the logout url to seraph-config.xml

      Workaround for Confluence 5.7.2 and older

      1. Find and copy <confluence_install>/confluence/WEB-INF/lib/confluence-x.x.x.jar to a temp location (with "x.x.x" representing your Confluence version number)
      2. Extract the file: jar -xf confluence-x.x.x.jar
      3. Open xwork.xml in an editor and locate this section: 
        <action name="logout" class="com.atlassian.confluence.user.actions.LogoutAction">
            <interceptor-ref name="defaultStack"/>
            <result name="error" type="velocity">/logout.vm</result>
            <result name="success" type="redirect">/login.action?logout=true</result>
        </action>
      4. Replace the redirect URL for success result to the desired URL, e.g.: 
                    <result name="success" type="redirect">/my_custom_url.html</result>
      5. Save the file, and copy it to <confluence_install>/confluence/WEB-INF/classes/
      6. Restart Confluence

            I made a work around solution for this. It does not require extracting the jar file. What you need to do it to create a jsp file in confluence root. pass the url redirect page in the query string, in the file redirect to the query string page.

            Hello,

            Are there any updates on this? It appears to still be an issue at least in 5.1.5.

            Thanks!

            I've also tried the xwork.xml workaround. It doesn't work for me. Though Confluence is running well - the logout finishes with error:
