I got it to work with oracle jre 1.7.71. I guess 1.7.0 has issues.

Thanks

Hello,

After removing GC options from setenv.sh, I was able to get confluence up.

However during mysql database setup, I am getting

2015-01-05 13:51:09,506 INFO [http-bio-8090-exec-6] [atlassian.plugin.manager.DefaultPluginManager] lateStartup Plugin system lateStartup begun
2015-01-05 13:51:09,510 ERROR [http-bio-8090-exec-6] [confluence.setup.actions.SetupPathsAction] execute Unable to setup paths to system

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Cannot go from State: STARTED to: RESUMING

Any suggestions?

I am using oracle jre 1.7.0

[confluence@JIRA_6 confluence]$ which java
/opt/java/jre1.7.0/bin/java
[confluence@JIRA_6 confluence]$ java -version
java version "1.7.0"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0-b147)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 21.0-b17, mixed mode)
[confluence@JIRA_6 confluence]$

This was working with

CATALINA_OPTS="$CATALINA_OPTS -Xms256m -Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -XX:+UseG1GC"

However, after restart I am constantly getting this..
