change authentication after LDAP failure

[AMMAR SHEIKH SALEH]

Hi,

my LDAP server has failed completely   ..and am using ldap authentication for jira/confluence login 

I see the following line written in the logs of catalina

2015-05-13 12:17:00,048 http-8080-2 ERROR anonymous 737x8x1 1214t49 192.168.1.252 /rest/gadget/1.0/login [crowd.manager.application.ApplicationServiceGeneric] Directory 'LDAP server' is not functional during authentication of 'XYZ'. Skipped.

I can't log to the System Administration or any pages inside JIRA 

Please advice me what to do ?

Hey Ammar,

Please follow the steps described on this page to retrieve a JIRA administrator account on your instance and then login, to perform the necessary changes on the directories.
