Captcha not showing after a couple of failed attempts
You have tried a couple of unsuccessful times to login to Bamboo until a captcha is triggered. The Captcha is however not showing any contents for the challenge. You have something virtually as the attached screenshot.
The atlassian-bamboo.log shows the following:
2014-09-09 09:53:15,947 ERROR [http-bio-8085-exec-18] [FiveOhOh] 500 Exception was thrown.

The first thing will be to check whether or not you are running bamboo on a supported JDK. This should usually be OpenJDK 1.7 or Oracle JDK 1.6 or 1.7. Check this on our Supported platforms page. Another root cause could be that your server is headless which means that there s no graphic environment to load the captcha service.
Resolution
- Stop Bamboo
Edit the
HOME/xml-data/configuration/administration.xmlfile and you will see a block:<captchaConfiguration> <enableCaptcha>true</enableCaptcha> <enableCaptchaOnSignup>true</enableCaptchaOnSignup> <maxLoginAttempts>3</maxLoginAttempts> </captchaConfiguration>change it to below and restart Bamboo to disable captcha so that you can get access
<captchaConfiguration> <enableCaptcha>false</enableCaptcha> <enableCaptchaOnSignup>true</enableCaptchaOnSignup> <maxLoginAttempts>3</maxLoginAttempts> </captchaConfiguration>Now verify from your system information page whether you have this environment variable set: -Djava.awt.headless=true . If its not set, please set it based on the guide Configuring your system properties
