Dear Sir or Madam,

 

We have Confluence with 10 users in use. It is installed on a Windows Server 2012 R2. Unfortunately, I do not get the Tomcat to run as a Service and it has to be started manually on a daily base. This also means that the performance is rather modest.

Confluence runs with the database on our SQL Server.

When I try to install the service following error message occures -> D: \ Sources \ Confluence \ Confluence \ bin> service.bat install TOMCAT_CONFLUENCE The JAVA_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly This environment variable is needed to run this program NB: JAVA_HOME should be JDK not a JRE.

I am sure that i have correctly configured the environment variable% JAVA_HOME%. Espacially this works on my 2 other Tomcat 7 instances without any interrupts.

 

Discription of the Java_Home variable:

 

C: \ Program Files \ Java \ jre1.8.0_152se

 

 

Discription of the JRE variable:

 

C: \ Program Files \ Java \ jre1.8.0_152se

 

 

For any Supporttasks it is possible to establish a Teamviewer session, if needed.

I'm available inhouse today and next week from 23.03.2018.

You can call me under: +49 (0) 8821/707 -2213 or by mail andreas.maurer@sparkasse-garmisch.de.

Thank you for your support.

 

Best regards

Here is the link to the description of Atlassian.

https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/start-confluence-automatically-on-windows-as-a-service-172071.html

It is important that after creating the service, the path to the JRE is entered correctly.

 

The command to start the dialog is:

Start_Java_Dialog.jpg

New command is tomcat8w and instead //ES//Confluence   //ES// the name of your serviceJava_Engine_Config.jpg

If the default jre of the confluence is to be used, enter the exact path.

Java Virtual Machine
Java Classpath
