Verify the user running your nifi has the correct permissions to read and edit all the database files in the NiFi database repository directory. Also make sure the user running NiFi had permissions to edit the authorized-users.xml file. This file is only read on start-up. After nifi is running it operates solely from the memory and DBs. My guess is here that nifi can not update the authorized-users.xml file with the changes you are making in the User management UI.

Disabling account... The users are in the authorized-users.xml file. Is this a configuration issue on our part or a bug? It is curious that not all the accounts get disabled only some and it is always the same accounts. To re-enable the accounts I go into the users page, select the disabled user (click the little pencil) and click ‘apply’ with no changes - the account is re-enabled. Details: Nifi 0.6.1 authority-providers.xml: default file provider login-identy-management.xml: kerberos-provider (corporate system – everyone is in it) authorized-users.xml:setup for each user Thanks, Ralph
