Hi,

We are installing a new 6.8.1 confluence in development server and following the steps per -https://confluence.atlassian.com/conf68/installing-confluence-on-linux-947171372.html

JAVA_HOME is set to /opt/app/java/jre1.8.0_151 and this is supported https://confluence.atlassian.com/conf68/supported-platforms-947171453.html

 

We are getting below errors when starting up(The port is not being used by any other btw)

Can someone please help me at the earliest?

This looks like a symptom error and not the root cause.  I would suggest shutting Confluence down, then moving all log files out of their current locations in to a saved directory.  When you start Confluence, you will have a clean log of only that start attempt.  Look through the logs for the first error and this is probably the root cause issue. If you can post the full catalina.out and atlassian-confluence.log we should be able to help you figure out what is going on.
