Symptoms

Users cannot open certain page of Confluence such as Space Tools or Manage Space Permissions

Cause

  • The link-browser-web-items.vm file is missing from the template folder in <Confluence Install>\confluence\WEB-INF\
    atlassian-bundled-plugins\confluence-link-browser-5.1.2.jar
  • The system plugin is set to false during startup.

Resolution

Enable the plugin by updating the value for the link browser in the database:

  1. Select the value
select bandanavalue from bandana where bandanakey='plugin.manager.state.Map'; 

2. Copy the ENTIRE value from the result set to a text editor. The value will be enclosed by <map> </map> tags. Include these when you copy out.

3. Update the confluence-link-browser entry to have boolean value of true. It should look like this in your text editor:

  <entry>
    <string>com.atlassian.confluence.plugins.confluence-link-browser</string>
    <boolean>true</boolean>
  </entry>

4. Copy the ENTIRE value from your text editor including the enclosing map tags.

5. Run this sql:

update BANDANA set BANDANAVALUE = '<insert the ENTIRE copied value here from your text editor>'
where BANDANAKEY = 'plugin.manager.state.Map'; 

(info) This will leave the rest of the information in the value the same, but modify the boolean value for the confluence-link-browser add-on to true.
