Postgres Setup Error Messages

Larry Morroni

Hi,

I recently purchased starter licenses for Jira and Conlfuence for my business. I have been trying to get Confluence running on Postgres using docker images. I have tried Atlassian's images as well as others. I've tried different versions of Postgres. Each time, after I enter the license info, the server crashes. The log has these messages in it:

I have tried Googling but to no avail.

Hi Larry,

I understand that you are seeing errors in the log indicating that tables Confluence expects in the database do not exist. Are those errors from the PostgreSQL log or the Confluence log?

In my experience with the setup wizard for Confluence, the license step comes before the database setup step, so I am not sure why the logs would indicate that the tables cannot be found at that time, as the tables are not created until the database setup step. Could you let me know at what point you are entering the license? Is the Docker instance already set up and then you are entering a Production license?

Please let me know what steps you are taking to change the database Confluence is using.

Please check the Confluence logs for more information about what is happening when you enter the license. The logs are:

<confluence_install>/logs/ (anything recent in this directory
<confluence_home>/logs/atlassian-confluence.log
Note: The <confluence_home> directory is the path defined in the following file: <confluence_install>/confluence/WEB-INF/classes/confluence-init.properties

Thanks,

Ann

Hi Ann,

it happens as soon as you set up the DB properties in the setup wizard with any version of Confluence and Postgres

That is from PostgreSQL logs

Is there any resolution to this? I have the exact same problem.

Mark Gooderum

Running into exactly the same error here. I get through the license screen, and the "Test Connection" works, and then these errors. I don't see any evidence that Confluence is even trying to create the tables.

Stephan Becker_ed372a

Same problem here!

Rigth after conecting to the database the posgresql log shows a lot error massages like:

ERROR: relation "attachments" does not exist at character 22

I tried to pull up confluence with the following docker-compose.yml om s debian 10 server.

Starting postgres prior pulling up confluence did not solve the problem.

Creating the trial database did not work as well, but with different error massages.

What is wrong with my docker-compose here?

Hello Mister Becker,

have you found a solution to the problem?
I am tasked with setting up a confluence on docker and I am running into the same problems.

Greetings
Kevin

In my case the problem was just the setup page that initialized the database timed out, due to a slow machine. I could see the same errors in DB log, however they do not seem to cause the problem.

After cleaning the volumes up and accessing the confluence installation directly instead via traefik reverse proxy the setup did not time out and the installation could be completed.
