    Description

      Problem Definition

      For users managed in external directories (e.g. Ldap, Crowd, JIRA), FishEye shows a "Change Password", a "Rename" and a "Delete" button.

      Deleting users

      Since it is not possible to remove users managed in external directories, the following message is presented to the users in the FishEye user interface:

      Error deleting user. Not allowed to delete user '<user_name>' from directory '<directory name>'. Please check the system logs for details.
      

      The following can be found in the atlassian-fisheye-YYYY-MM-DD.log file:

      Changing passwords

      The following appears when changing passwords:

      The user could not be updated. Not allowed to update user '<user_name>' in directory '<directory name>'. Please check the system logs for details.
      

      Renaming users

      The following appears when renaming users:

      The user could not be updated. Cannot rename user '<user_name>' because directory '<directory name>' does not allow updates. Please check the system logs for details.
      

      Suggested Solution

      Remove the option to "Change Password", "Rename" and "Delete" a user from an external directory.
