Administrator Access

[jian.Liu.dg]

Build a confluence's cluster for two hosts in cloud.

Confluence's version is 7.19.4.

When performing settings, the password login becomes invalid，or continuously requesting password input.

No jks certificate configured for this confluence's cluster.

Please tell me the reason。 

Thanks.

The reason for the problem is that there is no persistent session. The Nginx’ s proxy policy is Round Robin.

Changed Nginx's proxy policy to IP hash or hash $remote_addr consistent, the problem has been resolved.

Hi @jian.Liu.dg 

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Secure administrator sessions allows you to require administrators to re-enter their password before they can access administrative functions. This feature is sometimes known as "websudo" and is turned on by default. Read more about it on this link.

If you're using single sign-on, or have other security measures in place, you may want to disable secure administrator sessions. We don't recommend doing this unless you need to. 

To turn off secure administrator sessions:

1. Go to  > General Configuration > Security Configuration. 
2. Select Edit.
3. Under Secure administrator sessions, deselect the Enable checkbox.
4. Save your changes.
