Confluence upgrade from v7.0.2 to v7.11.2 broken web access

Eric Kochis

I attempted to upgrade Confluence to v7.11.2 with no success.

The upgrade responded successful, the service starts but the web page does not come up. and Jira shows a "network error" when trying to attach to Confluence. I believe it is related to the Server.XML file but everything I have tried does not work. I moved all the settings from the old server.xml over to the new file and it looks correct but the website does not display. Help!

Hi Eric

welcome to the Community.

Did you check the log file for an exceptions / warnings?

Cheers

Kurt

Eric Kochis

No I did not.

Yes- all looked good except there was a warning about using two connections, one on port 8443 and one on 8090. I am using https access on 8443 only and not going through a proxy.

Cheers.

Eric Kochis

Yes I did look at the logs :-)

Eric Kochis

I only moved over my connection info into the new Server.xml file and made sure to keep the proxy connection remarked.... still no go.

@Eric Kochis

Can you share the server.xml config, just to double check?

Eric Kochis

This is the new merged server.xml file without showing the pw.

Hi Kurt- any red flags on the server.xml file?

Thank you!

Kurt Klinner

@Eric Kochis

Hi Eric

sorry for the late reply. The server.xml looks ok so far. I assume that you try to access confluence via https://HOSTNAME:8443 right?

Cheers

Kurt
