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.
"Secure Connection Failed" error when saving edits or uploading attachments
Some users of version 36 of Firefox released on February 24th see the error "Secure Connection Failed" when saving edits to Confluence pages or making other changes to content such as uploading attachments and images. While we investigate and solve this problem, you will find that using another browser such as Chrome, Safari, Internet Explorer or a different version of Firefox will not exhibit this problem.
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.
