com.atlassian.plugin.osgi.container.OsgiContainerException: Cannot enable the plugin 'com.atlassian.applinks.confluence' when the bundle is not in the resolved or installed state: 32(14)
at com.atlassian.plugin.osgi.factory.OsgiPlugin.enableInternal(OsgiPlugin.java:371)
Cause
The plugin's state is invalid.
Resolution
Check out the database entry:
1
SELECT BANDANAVALUE FROM bandana WHERE BANDANAKEY = 'plugin.manager.state.Map';
Look for an entry about the applinks plugin, like this:
1 2 3 4
<entry> <string>com.atlassian.applinks.confluence</string> <boolean>false</boolean> </entry>
Delete whatever entry's there, then re-update the table:
1
UPDATE bandana SET BANDANAVALUE = '<insert new xml here>' WHERE BANDANAKEY = 'plugin.manager.state.Map';
