Anyone familiar with error -Unable to edit Editing is unavailable right now. Try again in a few min

[Ray Garcia]

We just started to see this error when we try to edit pages,

Unable to edit

Editing is unavailable right now. Try again in a few minutes.

Anyone familiar with this?

As mentioned above. Just faced to this issue, it is caused by malfunctioning Synchrony. You have to ask you devops to fix that issue and meantime, as workaround, you can turn off the collaborative editing in general configuration.

Thank you Tomas! you saved the day.

Even restarting the server did not function, you have to restart the service from web interface.

We are leaving confluence soon.

Hi Ray 

I spent 5 hours fixing this error today. Try to change Collaborative Editing mode to limited. and try to edit. If editing was possible in limited mode, then you are facing issues with Synchrony. 

Tell us what happens

[Stefano Coletta]

Had the same problem today. Changing Collaborative Editing mode to limited, editing, then switching back to On fixed the problem.

[Bhuushan Jaju]

This problem is occurring for a single page and other pages are editing properly.

Any idea?

Thanks!
