Hi,

Your version is past EOL. You should upgrade to either the latest version or the current LTS at your earliest convenience. Your upgrade path is:

8.2 → 8.9.9 → 9.5 (last step optional)

You may find the Upgrade Guide and the LTS-to-LTS Upgrade Notes helpful. If you have questions about upgrading, feel free to open a new thread for that here.

In general, deactivated users can recreate their account if the delegated authentication mechanism you use to allow login still accepts the user as valid.

Thanks Colin for the response.
