Confluence Server 8.5.3 not starting due to Server License Support

Brian Long_rj5xsw

Updating my Confluence Server to 8.5.3 to get to the latest patched version. My instance will not start, stating:

Incompatible License: This Confluence version doesn't support Server licenses

Am certainly aware that Server is EOL, however, my understanding is 8.5 is still available to run.

Self-hosted
Running in Docker Container

Tried pulling from both atlassian/confluence-server:8.5.3 and atlassian/confluence:8.5.3 and get the same message related to the license.

Please let me know what is needed to be done to get an instance back up and running.

Thanks ::

Brian

@Brian Long Is your confluence license for server still active?

Brian Long_rj5xsw

Yes, current dashboard shows it is still valid

@Brian Long I would suggest submitting a support issue with Atlassian then here: https://support.atlassian.com/contact/

Just went back to 8.4.4 and getting the same error. The message also says: Ensure you have a valid Data Center license, update your license key, and restart your instance

Looks like all the images were updated in the last 2 - 4 days. Wonder if they were all built with "Data Center" versus "Server"

Unfortunately can't open a ticket based off my license type

Seeing others reporting similar issues. Hopefully this gets resolved.
