Resolved it!
The upgrade, for whatever reason reset the proxyname port numbers from 8092 to 8090 so it obviously then had trouble connecting using the proxyname we use in our links (and set as the base URL in settings).
I noticed we had to nginx dir on our drive and I typically managed to pick the wrong one when viewing the log file hence no evident reason for my connection error.
Confluence was upgraded successfully and was requiring the servername:<portnumber> or IP:<portnumber> in order to allow access. our host proxyname is "apconfluencetest" as can be seen below.
The nginx error was:
2019/06/10 23:08:55 [error] 1632#11472: *10 upstream timed out (10060: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond) while connecting to upstream, client: 10.128.12.159, server: apconfluencetest, request: "GET /dologin.action HTTP/1.1", upstream: "http://10.242.130.12:8090/dologin.action", host: "apconfluencetest"
Changed port numbers in the nginx.conf file, restarted nginx service and all seems well.
Thank you for responses.
