I'M not able to change users passwords only mine and Im the admin

cesarvega September 29, 2017

You cannot edit this user's display name, password or email address as they are stored in a read-only user directory.

 

Can you please show me how to fix the password my users can no login anymore or change the password

Cesar, try creating a brand new directory connector from scratch.  Sync that one and then disable the one having issues.

Hi,

When i was having this issue for almost a week, i tried the following steps:

 

1. First, I used link given below to change my administrator password and I logged in. I had to try to login multiple times as it was saying incorrect username or password and i had to enter the CAPTCHA code 

https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CONF56/Restoring+Passwords+To+Recover+Admin+User+Rights

2. After logging in, i used the suggestion mentioned above by @Peter DeWitt and created a new directory and synced it.

And thats it!!! My problem got solved :)

Hi Cesar,

If the user has changed the password in the directory (for example AD) and BitBucket is using a read-only directory he has to use the new password in BitBucket too.

If this do not work, you should contact with your system admin to change the user password.

Im the system administrator and I do change password but this dont work they still no getting access

Cesar, there are a number of causes for this and without more information on how your server is configured it will be hard to pinpoint.  However, it looks like you are feeding users from another location or directory (Crowd, AD, LDAP).  Depending on the source you may not be able to make changes to the users hence the read-only user directory message. You couls also check you user directory configuration on Bitbucket and make sure that the directory listed is not configured to be read-only.  You will need to log on with a local account.
