In Confluence, the ancestor table controls the breadcrumb navigation at the top of each Confluence page. Occassionally, the ancestor table will become out of sync. When this happens, you can rebuild the table to restore everything to normal.

This rebuilder doesn't seen to work in version 2.1.4. No matter how many times I run this script the ancestor table stays out of sync. When you view the page hierarchy, everything looks good, but the breadcrumbs do not match the hierarchy.

Eddie,

My first recommendation is to update to the Confluence 2.2 and attempt to rebuild the ancestor table from the new version. If the problem is not fixed in 2.2, we can try to replicate the issue here and fix the bug. For that we would like you to open a support request at support.atlassian.com and attach a backup of your data, which can be anonymised if you wish. Hope that helps.

David
