To add what the previous person posted, not permitted could be due to page restrictions or space permissions. Make sure the user exists in the space or has permissions in the space. 

Login error - check and reset the user failed login count. 

Hope that helps.

Hi @Aashna Kumar ,

welcome to the Atlassian community!

All three errors are different :

  • You cannot access - it means that user has not application access
  • login failed - it means that user uses a wrong password
  • Not permitted - it means that user has no enough grant for access page

Hope this helps,

Fabio
