Argh, argh, argh, no. I do not know where to start on how wrong most of that is. If you are working in a field where the GDPR matters, please seek out some decent training on it before doing any more. It doesn't take long, and you're not expected to be a lawyer, just know enough to know when you need to ask more questions.…

That is not how Confluence works for permissions. A group will still need to be added to each space, and user cannot just "add themselves", they would need to be space admins (so they would already have been added)

This is not a Trello question.

I know, it doesn't jump out. I never read the breadcrumbs at the top, and tend not to look at the tags unless I'm not quite getting the question. Most of my experience is with Jira, with Confluence in second place, so I tend to lean to them first but I've made the wrong assumption many times and I'm trying to stop doing…

I took Confluence from the topic and tags selected.

Er, the question was about Confluence.

You can't change the field type. (On Server, you can, with a database hack, but you don't have access to the database on Cloud)

Install a supported version of Java on your machine and if you don't make that the default Java version, change Bamboo's environment-setup script to make it use that Java. See https://confluence.atlassian.com/bamboo/supported-platforms-289276764.html for the supported versions of Java

Go to Admin -> Backup manager, and click "create backup for server" or "backup for cloud" One gives you a file that can be uploaded into another Atlassian Cloud Confluence, the other a file that can be imported into a Confluence server

Mogwai! (I've never argued that Die Hard is not a Christmas film, but I'll argue to my dying breath that Gremlins is a better Christmas film)

You have done the right thing, and then run into my poor guidance. I should have said that when Jira looks at the value of the resolution field, it displays "unresolved" when the value is empty (or "null") in the database. This empty/null value cannot appear in the list of resolutions, because there is nothing there. What…

You will need to change the collation on the database server. Depending on your database, you may need to dump (meaning backup) and recreate your confluence database after changing the collation, or just make the change and let it reprocess. Ideally, that change should be as future-proof as possible. Without knowing what…

Mathematically, yes, there is a limit. But it's a stonkingly high number that is orders of magnitude beyond what any human could possibly find useful, and even a tiny fraction of the maximum would leave the field unusable in a browser. I would strongly recommend keeping the number of options in a select list very very low.…

The basic premise of "one server in Canada, another in Europe" is absolutely fine. Sharing an LDAP directory for the lists of users and groups will also work fine. But, they are separate servers. You will need Production licences for each server. Creating an issue in one and having it go to the other means you will need to…

This sounds like you have a problem with your browser. There have been reports of this in the past that have turned out to be down to browser extensions, and apps related to creating complex tables. Could you tell us if this is happening for all pages, or just those with tables in them? (But look at @Dave LIAO 's answers…

A folder is a place to keep a collection of related things, a dataset is a pile of data that is to be used during testing.

The screenshot was a great help, with the additional explanation, despite my failing in not being able to read Russian. Thank you! It is perfectly clear what you're trying to do and what is failing. But I think the A\/ symbol at the end of two lines points to what @Matt Reiner _K15t_ said.

It is often the case that errors later in the file are caused by earlier ones, so generally you want to work top-to-bottom. The problem with your first three lines is the same - each one starts with the name of a variable that you have not yet defined. The code can't know what they are. You might want to simply stick "def"…

Yes, Tomcat can throw up pages without another web-server.

The base url is not critical - it will work with the wrong base url, but some links may wander off to the wrong place, some gadgets won't work, emails will contain duff links and so-on. You'll be ok to log in and correct it later. http://<dns-name-of-EC2-instance>:8081 looks right to me, as you know it's running on 8081…

Yes. Because if you solve it one way, you'll break it even more for anyone who doesn't like the solution. I'd rather fix the root-cause of the problem - people not understanding that scrum estimates are not appropriate on sub-tasks, so scrum tools that support it properly shouldn't do them.

I am sorry, but I do not understand this. Confluence does not have "folders", it simply has a page tree. "Versions" are not individual pages, they are a set of changes to a single page, and only the current page appears in the tree. And you cannot have pages with the same name in a space. Could you re-explain your problem…

No, they do not. See https://support.atlassian.com/jira-service-desk-cloud/docs/overview-of-knowledge-base-access/ if you are not sure (first section on "view access" covers it I think)

Ahh, that makes sense, you've downloaded a Cloud Jira and imported it into a Server instance. You should change the server ID - see https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/change-the-server-id-for-an-instance-of-jira-server-285839562.html 

I don't know what you have tried, but if you have set it up as I've said, you should see it working.

Jira can't do this directly. The permission is too blunt - you can either assign an issue (to anyone who can be assigned) or you can not. There's no in-between like "can assign to myself, but not others" I've seen people work around this in the workflow, although mostly for simplification reasons rather than permissions.…

You will need to amend the code that is generating the first line. I would not bother trying to do this, it's an amazing amount of work just to get rid of something most people don't really care about. I'd just pick a new word or phrase to replace "Hi" so the comma doesn't look out of place.

There's a whole world of "Service Management" and it would be very easy to drown in all the information you can find on the web about it, even if you focussed on just the stuff that talked about doing it with Jira. Jira, at its heart, is an issue tracker, and helpdesk calls can be treated as issues, so it makes sense to…

Worth a try. For what it's worth, I think the Confluence check is partly stored as a flag on the attachments table saying "this file is missing", so it looks for those, but the rest are all done on-the-fly

Localhost means "this machine" (it does not necessarily have to, it is a convention rather than an absolute, but the last OS I remember coping correctly with localhost not being itself was OpenVMS) When you put "localhost" into your laptop/desktop/phone/server/tablet/whatever, what you are saying is "talk to yourself", not…
