System Error on Startup caused by StackOverflowError

Illia Stadnyk

Hello everyone!

I've installed Confluence on a CentOS server on top of SQL Server. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to start due to a StackOverflowError. Just wondering if anyone encountered this type of issue before and if anyone knows a solution? The specific error is below:

Cause

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'i18NBean' defined in class path resource [setupContext.xml]: Bean instantiation via factory method failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate [com.atlassian.confluence.util.i18n.I18NBean]: Factory method 'getI18NBean' threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.StackOverflowError

Thanks a bunch all!

Sorry to hear you're running into issues starting Confluence! I haven't run into this specific error myself, but I found another Community post of someone else getting a similar "I18NBean" error. The post and answers run through some troubleshooting steps that may help:
