So I set Confluence to use the JIRA user directory. I then disabled the confluence user directory. Everything was fine until my cookie expired. Now I can't login to Confluence with my admin account or any other account. Here is what my Confluence cwd_directory table looks like currently: 360449Remote JIRA Directoryremote jira directory2015-05-27 10:05:09.3972015-06-29 15:41:48.0971NULLcom.atlassian.crowd.directory.RemoteCrowdDirectorycom.atlassian.crowd.directory.remotecrowddirectoryCROWD360450Confluence Internal Directoryconfluence internal directory2015-05-27 10:05:10.1802015-06-29 15:40:25.3501Confluence default internal directorycom.atlassian.crowd.directory.InternalDirectorycom.atlassian.crowd.directory.internaldirectoryINTERNAL And here is my JIRA cwd_directory table (JIRA does work, I can login fine) 1JIRA Internal Directoryjira internal directory2013-02-28 11:57:51.3072015-06-29 15:44:35.6031NULLcom.atlassian.crowd.directory.InternalDirectorycom.atlassian.crowd.directory.internaldirectoryINTERNAL0

Siddheshwar could you post that as an answer?

Thanks for more info, You can restore your admin password by using the following link. https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Restoring+Passwords+To+Recover+Admin+User+Rights This link helps you to restore you password from database.

nav[aria-label="Primary Navigation"] { padding: 0; & ul { list-style: none; width: 100%; display: flex; flex-direction: row; justify-content: start; align-items: start; gap: 30px; padding: 0; & li { margin: 0; } & ul li { list-style: none; } } }

Access inaccessible Confluence instance? (I disabled the internal user directory)

So I set Confluence to use the JIRA user directory. I then disabled the confluence user directory. Everything was fine until my cookie expired. Now I can't login to Confluence with my admin account or any other account.

Here is what my Confluence cwd_directory table looks like currently:

360449	Remote JIRA Directory	remote jira directory	2015-05-27 10:05:09.397	2015-06-29 15:41:48.097	1	NULL	com.atlassian.crowd.directory.RemoteCrowdDirectory	com.atlassian.crowd.directory.remotecrowddirectory	CROWD

And here is my JIRA cwd_directory table (JIRA does work, I can login fine)

Hi,

You can try the following steps to enable the Directory

Use a native client to connect to your database
Run the following SQL:

UPDATE cwd_directory SET active = 'T';

The value of 'T' may need to be changed to match the 'true' value in your database. The above is for PostgreSQL.
Restart Confluence and all the user directories will be enabled.
