I've tried to reproduce the issue with Crowd 2.5.2, Jira 5.1.4 and Confluence 4.3, without success. This is the setup I've used:
- I've configured a delegated OpenLDAP directory in Crowd.
- Groups 'jira-users' and 'confluence-users' have been created in the delegated directory in Crowd.
- The directory has been configured in Crowd to automatically add users to these two groups after a successful login.
- A remote Crowd directory has been configured in Jira and Confluence, making sure it has been configured for incremental synchronisation. Directory synchronisation has been tested successfully.
- Products have been restarted as described in the original report.
- To make sure there is no previous trace of the user in any of the directories/caches, a new user has been created directly in the LDAP directory, i.e., without using Crowd. It has been verified that the user does not appear in Crowd, Jira or Confluence.
- When the user authenticates in Jira or Confluence, the user is automatically created in the delegated directory and added to both groups (checked using Crowd), and is also created in Jira/Confluence and added to both groups (checked using the admin console of Jira/Confluence).
We would be interested to know if this issue is still affecting users of older versions of the products.
