atlas-run url returns a 404 in browser
Asked by strattonbrazil:

I recently installed the Atlassian SDK on my Ubuntu 18.04 setup following the Alassian hello-world tutorial [here](https://developer.atlassian.com/server/framework/atlassian-sdk/create-a-helloworld-plugin-project/). After going through the steps, which seem a little out of date (ex. tutorial doesn't mention the OSGI config question) and I run \*atlas-run\* it downloads the libraries and starts Tomcat. However, the url it provides, http://localhost:2990/jira, only 404s in my browser. I've seen this in other topics, but suggestions like hard-coding the IP address or restarting the machine don't seem to help. Again, when I've done this tutorial before on similar setups it just works.

My system setup:

$ atlas-version

How do I create Kanban boards in Confluence?
Asked by Rod Duncan:

When I chose Confluence, I was expecting a Kanban layout similar to my current KanbanFlow account, but haven't yet found any reference to Kanban board layout in Confluence.

Please let me know whether there is such a layout in Confluence and how I can make use of it.

Thanks


Answers:
author: Bill Bailey
body: That would be Jira, if you want a Kanban board.

comments: author: Rod Duncan
body: Thank you, Bill. I'll look into opening a Jira account.


author: Bill Bailey
body: I use a Jira Kanban board to manage my individual tasks. Very light weight solution.


author: claudioac
body: Hello Rod, my name is Claudio and part of the team at Comalatech an Atlassian Marketplace partner.

As you have found Confluence Cloud does not have a Kanban Board layout 'built in'. In addition to using Jira as suggested by Bill or Trello (another Atlassian product), you could explore the apps available on the Atlassian Marketplace. For example if you wanted to have your Kanban board on your Confluence page and use it to manage other Confluence pages you could try Comala Boards for Confluence Cloud.

[Comala Boards for Confluence Cloud](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1211538/comala-boards-for-confluence-cloud) is available on the Atlassian Marketplace and it has a try out for 30 days. Let me know if you need any help, happy to lend a hand.

Have a great day! Looking forward to your feedback and if the app was helpful for you and your team!


author: Boden Holland
body: My God your products are terrible, how you manage to stay in business is astonishing. Creating a con board should be a fundamental feature

comments: author: Bohdan Ovcharenko
body: Hey!  

What tools do you usually use instead of Atlassian?


author: Ollie Roberts
body: I believe it is all about monetisation (or, in other words, customer revenue expansion). I assume Atlassian would prefer not to cannibalise their Trello or Jira products with a Kanban board in Confluence. Don't get me wrong; this is frustrating me, too, and I'm starting to realise why I tried migrating to ClickUp (but have regretfully returned to due to their bugs).

Allowing users to edit a child page but not a parent page and overall Space
Asked by Susan Lin:

Hi - I have a space that's visible to everyone but not editable, however I would like to make a subpage in that space editable to a few people but I do not want them to be able to edit the pages above it. How do I do this?

<br />

Thanks

Susan


Answers:
author: Andreas Purde
body: Dear Susan,

natively it is not possible. In case the user does not have an edit permission on the space level you can't add it on the page level as Bill already said.

Missing edit permissions on parent pages are no problem however as page edit permissions are not inherited to child pages (only view permissions are inherited).

Kind regards

Andreas


author: Bill Bailey
body: I don't think that is possible. Permissions in Confluence are inherited, so top-level pages inherit permissions from the space, and child pages inherit permissions from their parents. In other words, you cannot grant permissions that are greater than a pages parent/space.

Confluence Database migration from an older version to a new version database
Asked by Muhammad Fahad:

Dear Experts,

I need to migrate an older version Confluence database to the new version Confluence database. What are the best practices or tools that can help me? My confluence database size is 220GB.

I viewed the guide documented here <https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/migrating-to-another-database-148867.html> but it only covers the same version migration so its not helpful for my use case.

Please advise.

Thank you


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Your question is unclear.

Are you trying to upgrade Confluence, or the database it keeps its data in, or both?

Why are you reading docs about migration, instead of upgrade?

comments: author: Muhammad Fahad
body: Thank you [@Nic Brough -Adaptavist-](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/781454) . It is not related to upgrade. It is related to the migration of data from Confluence 6.x MySQL to Confluence 7.x MySQL. That's why I'm reading migration docs.

Thank you


author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: A migration is about moving from one database to another. Either from one machine to another or from one type of database to another.

Going from Confluence 6.x to 7.x is absolutely **not** a migration, it is an upgrade.

What is the space size in confluence
Asked by Lekhoni Banerjee:

* How much space size is provided per user for a company?
* Can we request an extension of space size later?
* If I create more than one space will i get same amount of size for each, or will it be divided in two spaces, in other words is space user specific.
* When we upload a file to Confluence, does it take up the space size or only pages and child pages take up a space size.


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: * None. It's not limited by user or company
* Yes, you can always ask your server admins to add disks to your servers
* Not applicable, see above
* All data takes up space. Attachments take up simple disk space, pages (and blogs and config etc) go into the database, which also consumes disk space.

High Confluence Server memory usage.
Asked by David Sullivan:

Hi, we have our instance of Confluence Server running with the Java Heap Memory settings set to -Xms 7g and -Xmx 7g. We have bumped it up a few times after getting out of memory errors.   

We just upgraded to 7.4 from 6.13. And we received another out of memory error. A little after it occurred I saw that the memory heap usage was high ( \> 90% ), so I will probably be bumping up the Java Heap memory to 8 gb. From what I've read, this seems high. We have less than 1,000 spaces, and only a couple thousand users (all LDAP), but we are syncing a lot of groups (in the thousands) which I wonder could be part of the problem. Also the number of pages may be high, I don't know the pages exactly, but the content values under the Confluence Usage on the System Information shows about 250K current versions and about 800K all versions.  

Anyway, has anyone else seen such high memory usage? If so, did you do anything about it? Is there other options to prevent running out of memory besides upping the allotted amount?

Thanks for any suggestions or insights,

David


Answers:
author: Daniel Ebers
body: Hi David,

I am sorry to hear about these problems. There can be plenty of reasons and it is quite hard to pinpoint the root cause from outside your team what I assume to be the reason why there was no reaction to your post yet.

There is, indeed, good documentation available (<https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/troubleshooting-problems-and-requesting-technical-support-776659671.html>) which provides a first basis from where to start off. Depending on where the actual problem might be located in can be necessary to have a closer look on hardware (in case the server is not virtualized), OS settings, Apps, memory settings for confluence or even like you already assume a LDAP directory integration.  
Probably the first step to take would be to assess the log files - just to make sure there is not apparently error logged.

On the linked page you also find options to contact Atlassian in case you need to reach out to support.

I am afraid that these are only some general hints. As to your question if there is a general problem with memory consumption I'd say it depends by the specific setup and infrastructure. If this is all okay probably only a setting could lead to higher memory consumption - but all of it needs further inspection on site or at least a support ticket (with a support zip provided).

I hope it helps to do the first debugging/analyzing steps.  

Regards,  
Daniel

Content Management Functions in Confluence - Review and Expiration dates
Asked by Greg Phillips:

I am new to Confluence and I could use some help. In most Content Management systems you can set a review date or expiration document for a document. It will push out a note to managers for that document that it has been a year since upload.

Anyone familiar how to fix user doesn't exist in product SAML assertion?
Asked by Tom L:

Recently, after our Crowd upgrade, there are several users who cannot login to Confluence data center with the following error:

2020-09-08 14:18:03,019 ERROR \[http-nio-8090-exec-11\] \[impl.web.filter.ErrorHandlingFilter\] doFilter Received SAML assertion for user (username), but the user doesn't exist in the product  
com.atlassian.plugins.authentication.impl.web.usercontext.AuthenticationFailedException: Received SAML assertion for user (username), but the user doesn't exist in the product

The user exists in Confluence, and can be found via the API. The user exists in Crowd and can be found in the delegated authentication directory. The user also exists in the IdP.

Any ideas how to resolve this?


Answers:
author: Arnav Ghatage
body: Hi Tom,

It seems like the plugin you are using on confluence, does not have Just-In-Time provisioning or remote directory sync or an option to change user identifier in the SSO configuration. Crowd send SSO user's username in NameID SAML attribute which confluence uses to identify SSO users but it seems it is unable to find any user in confluence with received NameID value. You can try out this plugin: [Confluence SAML SSO](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1215542/mo-confluence-saml-sso-confluence-sso-single-sign-on-login?hosting=datacenter&tab=overview). This add-on allows you to test configurations and see all the attributes received in the SAML response. Also, can use the different SAML Attributes to identify SSO user if required.

Feel free to ask me any more questions that you have.

I work for miniOrange, a top SSO vendors in the Atlassian Marketplace. Reach out to us via [atlassiansupport@xecurify.com](mailto:atlassiansupport@xecurify.com)

How do you add more fields to the Insert Jira dialog in Confluence?
Asked by Eliana Crema:

Environment:

* Jira Cloud \& Confluence Cloud
* Jira Next-Gen projects

When editing a Confluence page, if you select "Jira" from the "Insert" menu, the "Insert JIRA Issue/Filter" dialog comes up.

If you then select "Create New Issue", the only available fields are:

* Project
* Issue Type
* Summary
* Description

We want to be able to capture additional data at this point (e.g., select a parent/epic, add a "due date", select a value from a custom dropdown), otherwise, we must still go to Jira and edit the ticket there right away so that it contains these important data points, which defeats the point of using the insert macro as not to leave Confluence.

How can we add these additional fields to the dialog/form when using Next-Gen Jira projects on the Cloud?

Thanks!


Answers:
author: Ang?lica Luz
body: Hello Eliana,

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

The Issue Create screen in Confluence is currently not customizable, so it's not possible to add more fields or also add required fields.

How to check the specific Child page creation across different Spaces
Asked by kannan_poompatham:

Hi,

My requirement is as follows:

1. Say for ex, I've around 10 projects, which are created as 10 different Spaces in Confluence.

2. Respective team will create "Weekly status report - Proj Name - \<from dt\> \<to dt\>" each and every week and put it in one of sub-page in their respective project Space

3. Now may I know how do I write a script which I can run on every Monday evening to validate whether the report has been made available in the respective sub-page or not for all the Spaces.


Answers:
author: Diego
body: Hello [@kannan_poompatham](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4078406) !  
As I understand, you need to check, every Monday, if the pages containing reports for the last week were created.

I am not sure how you could achieve this via scripts, but we can surely use the Content by Label macro to achieve pretty similar results.

What we can do is this:

> 1. *Create a label for those report pages*
> 2. *Create a new page*
> 3. *Insert as many Content by label macros as you need spaces to report into
>    ![Screen Shot 2020-09-11 at 10.46.40.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/109997i480FE5D6CD9DCAD3/image-dimensions/504x307?v=v2 "Screen Shot 2020-09-11 at 10.46.40.png")*
> 4. *Define the label that the macros will be looking for*
> 5. *Define the time frame in which the macro will need to look into*
> 6. *Save the macros*
> 7. *Publish the page*

Now, if you visit the page in which you placed those macros, you should be able to check if the pages were correctly created.

Here is some documentation that can help you:
> * [++***\[Confluence Cloud\] Use labels to organize your content***++](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/use-labels-to-organize-your-content/)

sorry for the late answer. I will answer it anyway because it may solve the problem of someone else.

In our [documentation](https://hagen-management.atlassian.net/l/c/3oBtq0Uv) we highlight that you should do the following:
> Additionally tick the "Allow Incoming" and "Allow anonymous access" checkboxex in Jira's Allowlist (formerly known as Whitelist) for the Application Link to Confluence so that Jira allows Confluence to be rendered there. Please refer to the [official documentation for the Allowlist of Jira](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/configuring-the-whitelist-381255821.html) for further information.

If you're deleting multiple Spaces, I'd follow the instructions above.

If you mean how to delete your Confluence site itself - you'll need to be the Org/Site Admin and then...

How to give add access to users without public display unless the content is verified

The behaviour that you describe can be configured by using the third party app [Comala Document Managment](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/142/comala-document-management?hosting=server&tab=overview). This app will allow you to design and apply a lifecycle/workflow to Confluence pages. Once there is an enabled workflow in the page or a space, only the approved pages will be visible to read only users.
