Quite a few times I'm afraid. There are several things that can cause it, and the best starting point to troubleshoot is https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/java-lang-runtimeexception-error-rendering-template-for-decorator-root-in-a-page-217743738.html

This is usually down to a missing certificate somewhere. Usually on the server side, when one server (with incorrect or missing certificate(s) ) is missing Have a run through https://confluence.atlassian.com/kb/ssl-and-application-link-troubleshooting-guide-719095282.html - that usually helps us find a missing or broken…

The file should be in the "confluence home" directory. For example, I have charlie@zen:/opt/data-conf$ ls -l total 92 drwx------ 2 charlie charlie 4096 Sep 18 01:22 analytics-logs drwx------ 3 charlie charlie 4096 Jan 7 2019 attachments drwx------ 2 charlie charlie 12288 Sep 18 02:01 backups drwx------ 2 charlie charlie…

That's definitely not what it should be doing. It actually sounds like the collaborative editing is turned off! The Server (6.15) I'm using now has two other people editing, I can see their icons at the top, and coloured carets dancing around text they're adding/deleting/updating. Definitely real-time! 

That's exactly the case where an admin should interfere, saying "if you can't be trusted with simplified workflows, we will take them away". Explain the global impact on everyone of having pointlessly duplicated status and extra complexity.

We know where it is, we need to see your graph, what you think it is telling you, what you are expecting, and why you think there is a problem?

No, it applies to a project - all issues in that project.

No, there is not. JQL is not SQL, and all it does is fetch the current list of issues matching the query. However, you can set up a "filter" in Jira which is a saved JQL query. When used in the "issue navigator" (and some other places), you can save configuration alongside the filter so that when you revisit it, it looks…

Nothing more than "you need to read the logs to find out what is wrong". I can't help you without seeing the errors.

You can paste your html in and wrap it with one of the macros you mention, or, stick it in a browser so it renders, then copy the content into a proper confluence page. Confluence is for holding content, not raw html, so there's not a lot more you can do.

Er, not quite. You got told Green is added, not "conflicts". (Conflicts would include green and red-removed) This avoids the need to "merge". Save what you have and then edit again, removing anything that was added that you don't like, and adding back anything that should not have been removed.

Yes, it works across spaces (I left that out to keep the answer short - I should have included something like "Page 1: Content", "Page 2 (in any space): include"

There's no way to change the labels, they are drawn directly from the configuration settings of the gadget and the data it is reporting on.

There's no way to do this built in. The reason is that it's not scalable. Imagine I'm one of your users, with "access" to project XYZ only. Your system has 5,000 projects, with different fields for different types of project, and maybe 100 custom fields. Now think through the overhead of checking if every field is used by…

No. 3.x has a totally different storage format and data structure to 4.0 and above and you need to upgrade to a version that can still understand the old data so it can upgrade it. You should upgrade from 3.x to 4.latest first. Then thoroughly test a 4.x to 6.target upgrade (In theory, this can work, but I've seen it have…

There is no way to link to a resource that has a variable location and may not exist. On your computer, it's quite likely you are using a variable IP address (dhcp) and sometimes, you might turn it off (and if it's a laptop, disconnect and move it) Confluence (and any other server) can't refer to something that might not…

That's ok, it happens sometimes, people are introduced to one, and the other later and conflate the two under the same name.

There is no "issue role". Do you mean "project role"? A project role is a container that goes across all projects, but separated by project, and can be used to allocate users (individuals or groups) into projects, then used by permissions and notification to allow or do various things. For example, you might put Alice into…

That's no good - the error message is coming from Confluence. It may well be Confluence waiting for Jira, but saying "problem is with Jira" is useless without telling you what the problem is. Confluence will have errors in its logs that will show if it is Confluence or Jira that is the problem. There's nothing you can do…

No. Project admins are defined by "people who have project admin permission" in the permission scheme for the project. Not the admin group (although a lot of us tend to add the admin group into a role that gives them project admin as well)

Yes, the permission scheme for a project allows you to set just assignee and reporter (and of course, lots of others if you want) for any permission such as edit.

What exactly are you doing to the story when you "close it"? Which graph is going "wrong", the one for the first sprint or the second?

You would need to pull apart Confluence and rebuild it with a set of unsupported code changes to implement this. Two big impacts here are * A lot of software uses password autocomplete as part of "passport safe" functions. You absolutely do not want to remove this because people who use passport safes are more secure than…

Have you tried typing "confluence duplicate page names" into any searches?

Could you explain what order you expect the sub-tasks to be in on the board? (As it has nothing to do with transitions, I'm a little confused on why you're talking about them)

You are offered "next gen" because you have Software. "Classic" does indeed imply project types will be going away, replaced by "next gen", but this is quite a long way off at the moment, and only applies to the classic Scrum and Kanban at the moment (I'd expect the offer of "classic" to vanish, and scrum/kanban next-gen…

Ok, this sounds like you had an app that was breaking something in this screen (probably the javascript). You removed that, and the problem carried on for a while, but went away on its own. That suggests that there was a cache with the broken data in it, and it got cleaned out when the cache expired or filled, so the next…

It is possible to unlock and rename the fields on a Server/DC install, but it is not a good idea. Apart from "retainer" really not meaning the same things as what an "epic" is for and hence confusing people: Jira is now quite widely used, and people coming from an environment that has Epics will find it very strange While…

It's impossible to say without knowing anything about S4 Hana Cloud. Jira has extension points where you can add code that can talk to external systems, but what you do there depends on what external APIs the other system has. If you want to code from the other end, Jira has a REST API which the other system can use to…

You'll need to explain what GRC means, it's not an acronym that I am familiar with.
