You only need that file if you're doing SSO with Crowd.  The basic connection details are handled in the Crowd UI

Please check the application login credentials in crowd.properties. Did you configure the confluence and JIRA login credentials in crowd.properties file in the crowd server. https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CROWD/The+crowd.properties+file

The application needs a password to read crowd, the password you have given in the directory settings is incorrect.

To fix it, you need to log in as an admin and correct the setting for the directory.  You'll need to use one of the internal admin accounts to do that, possibly having to disable external crwod to get to them, and possibly with a new password.  See https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Restoring+Passwords+To+Recover+Admin+User+Rights
