News

Friday, March 6, short outage at 6 am

In order to attempt to solve the problems described below with Gliffy and ThemeBuilder caused by a failure of the component of Confluence which manages licenses for add-on features, on Friday, March 6th at 6 am EST, we will shut down Confluence for a few minutes.  If you are logged in at that time, your connection will end.

Gliffy Error

On Thursday, March 5, the Gliffy add-on to Confluence which creates diagrams and other illustrations is not functioning due to a failure of the component of Confluence which manages the licenses for add-on features.  Pages which contain Gliffy diagrams currently show the error "Unknown macro: 'gliffy'.

Confluence dashboard not showing images at the top of the screen

On Thursday, March 5, this page, the Confluence dashboard is not displaying the images which are customarily at the top of the screen.  This too is due to a failure of the component of Confluence which manages the licenses for add-on features.  The images are produced by the Adaptavist ThemeBuilder add-on.

Confluence upgraded

Confluence was upgraded from version 4.3.7 to version 5.6.5 on Sunday, January 18th and again on Friday, January 21st to version 5.6.6.  Please check your pages and report problems and questions to confluence@cornell.edu.  

Not finding a Confluence account when adding permissions?

Confluence accounts are created at the time a netID holder logs in for the first time.  If you see the error "User netID could not be found.  Please confirm his or her existence with a Confluence Administrator" then please ask the user to log in to Confluence once to establish an account.  After the first log in, you will then be able to add the netID to Confluence space permissions.

Confluence account clean up

We are starting a process to deactivate Confluence accounts belonging to graduated students and staff and faculty who have left the university. This process is reversible and does not remove pages or other content added by these users. Please let us know by writing to confluence at cornell.edu if there are any questions or concerns about this process.
