I am aware that only certain versions of Jira allow for deactivating a user, but I am unable to discern which version I have. Where can I get that information and how do I deactivate a user.
If you are running JIRA < 6.0, you can disable users by removing them from all groups. Since JIRA 6 you can disable users by navigating to Administration » Users, click on Edit next to the user you are trying to disable, and select the checkbox - see this page.
I'm glad to hear that. :)
You must be a registered user to add a comment. If you've already registered, sign in. Otherwise, register and sign in.
Jira version is printed at the bottom of (almost) every page in Jira. Scroll down.
If it's not there, then look in Admin -> System information.
Then read the appropriate user maintenance doc for the version you're on.
