Quest "Escape from Cidhna mine" bug
So when the guards take me to the prison the door wont open since i need a key but nobody open for me either so im stuck betwen those 2 doors. I already tried reloading save, restarting ect... Not sure if this cause this but awhile ago i killed all guards in this mine just for fun therefor the guards standing beside the prison door is gone. I cant re load a save before this cause it was ages ago.

use the glitch to get out if you need

Which glitch? Couldnt find any on that site.
Scroll down under trivia and it will say

It is possible to escape the mine after completing the Forsworn Conspiracy mission. Usually, the body of Grisvar the Unlucky still remains, so if the Dragonborn has kept Borkul's key and Madanach's key, they can return through the escape route used in the above mission, plant the keys (and some items to help in fighting) on the body and get out.

Contrary to popular belief, it is possible to escape Cidhna Mine using a glitch. If the cart found near Duach is pushed into the corner of the wall that leads to the dead end, the Dragonborn can fall through the map and land on the other side of the door they originally entered through. Outrun the guards, or kill them with magic through the side of the door. Once the mine is left, the Markarth Guards will not be hostile. Another way to escape is to hold a pickaxe aloft in the air and place it on the door next to Borkul and then run into it until glitching through, then repeat the process by using the bucket on in the left hand alcove then follow the route out of the Markarth Ruins.

If the Dragonborn manages to get into the mine without being arrested, interacting with the ore within the mine will grant the option to sleep. The Dragonborn can then use the ore as a bed. The people within the mine may be hostile, regardless if the Dragonborn has spoken to them or not
if all else fails use the consol either to unlock or to clip through or even tp out
thank god for consol on pc version when stuff like this happens

The problem is that im stuck betwen those 2doors in the entrance.
only option then is to either reload a previous save from right before being stuck between the two gates
or use teh consol (it doesnt disable achievements so dont worry)

ya i know pretty ♥♥♥♥♥♥ i dont really like to use consol even if its something like this but i guess i have no choice. I have a mod anyway that enables achievements even if you have mods running its pretty good.
just be glad you are on PC and not console, since there is not a consol to fix stuff on console ;)
and seems in Bethesda games this stuff WANTS to happen
after playing fallout 3 on console and encountering stuff like this, i have never played it on console since, the consol on pc version are just to valuable to fix broken quests or glitches like this

I had the same problem described here. I had a follower when the quest started and that seemed to be the problem. I reloaded a previous save before talking to the guards in the shrine of Talos, dismissed my follower then tried again. Then the quest worked
