Locally installed Confluence won't launch because I have Jira on the same machine

Question

I installed locally Jira few weeks ago (Windows 64x).

And now I want to install Confluence on the same machine. But it doesn't launch.

Log says: "SEVERE [main] org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.stopServer Could not contact localhost:8000. Tomcat may not be running."

I understand that I can't have Confluence and Jira using a Single Tomcat Application Container. This is where my knowledge ends. I have no idea where to go next. Googled, but didn't find answer.

How do I install Confluence on the same machine where I have Jira. I am using PostgreSQL as database.

Hi, Sandra.

We would like to know the following?

* Did you receive any errors during the installation process?
* Do you see any errors in your operating system logs?
* Was the installation run as an Administrator?
* Could you provide details on the steps taken to perform the installation?
* Can you check if confluence and jira server port is the same? (Check server.xml file)

Cheers

Hi Sandra,

can you share the confluence log file.

Are jira and confluence listening on different ports.

Is the sizing of the machine sufficient?
