Unfortunately, this solution does not work for me: http:// /secure/admin/jira/ViewPlugins.jspa?mode=enable&pluginKey=jira.webfragments.admin Is there anything else I should do to make the Admin Menu showing by default when Admin logging in to JIRA?

It's not a bug, it's doing a sensible and secure thing. It sounds like you are mixing up "log in to machine" with "log into Jira". Just because you're an admin on your PC does not mean you are logging into another system (unless you've set that system up to automatically use your PC as the authorisation) To log into Jira, you need to use the username and password you set up when you installed it (I can see it's running on localhost, which tells me its a local install that you did)

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; } } }

Hi there,

Can you please clarify if your Admin section is physically missing, or if you simply want it to be the default page in Jira?

The URL provided from Menus Missing from Jira Administration Panel appears to no longer be functioning, but this particular error was that particular sections are missing, but not the entire menu.

Can you go to Manage Add-ons (http://<baseurl>/plugins/servlet/upm/manage/all) and Search All for System Admin Menu Sections plugin and let me know if it's enabled?

Please also send us a screenshot of the issue on yyour end.

Kind regards,

Shannon

Thank you Shannon.

It's enabled now. It's persistent now when I login as admin.

Previously, after I login as Admin I had to add admin at the end of the basedurl

for example: https://<basedurl>/secure/admin

I re-installed it.

Hi there,

Thank you for letting me know! Glad it's now working for you. To be clear, was it the re-enabling of the add-on that made this work again for you?

Kind regards,

Shannon

I am sorry to reopen this, but after Jira install on my local PC there is no admin menu there. And I cannot login to Jira((

can someone help please?

You will only get the admin menu after you log in as an admin.

Can you confirm that you cannot log in because you have lost your username and/or password? Have you tried the "forgot password" link?

Hayk Petrosyan_jor3fp

Thansk for the answer

1) I login as Admin in my PC, still there is no admin menu

2) If by Login as admin, you mean login in Jira. than I do not know how to do that

I tried "forgot password" link, but Jira does not send me any email.

That is separate issue, that it cannot send emails((

Hayk Petrosyan_jor3fp

So no way to login Jira. Really very surprised with such a buggy behavioral

Hayk Petrosyan_jor3fp

Thanks for the answer.

At first I was also thining that way. But the problem is when if I write my admin email and password (which I created during install) Jira does NOT recognise it.

When I was creating admin it does not asked for username just email.

I tried to reinstall Jira, but after 2nd time install it did not ask me for configuration. Seems somehow it remebers its previous config.

I think this is just a bug.

One more question: how I can setup again the admin username/password?

Please not as my jira is localhost, it has issues accessing to internet

That's not what the installers do. I'm afraid I am lost here, as you're describing a scenario that I can't replicate because it simply does not work this way.

On your second install though, yes, I recognise that. It's because you've not fully removed the previous install (I'm guessing you are installing on Windows, as that retains stuff you don't want when un-installing because it's a poorly designed OS. On Unix-like systems, deleting the install and data directories does the job the way it should, although you also need to check any "startup" stuff)

To try to "reset" the password for the admins without re-doing any installs, see https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/restore-passwords-to-recover-admin-user-rights-972329273.html
