"Your confluence instance is already completely setup" Looping

Josh Schaffenberger

Hello --

 

We wanted the URL to not have a port at the end of it, and tried to switch the connector in server.xml to listen on port 80. 

This didn't work, and looped us to http://localhost/bootstrap/selectsetupstep.action

and the text on that page is:

Your confluence instance is already completely setup.

Return to Confluence.

 

I set everything back, and this still loops. (now http://localhost:8090/bootstrap/selectsetupstep.action

 

Your confluence instance is already completely setup.

Return to Confluence.) 

Why does this think its the setup page, and that that i want to do additional setup?

Do i need to change something in the SQL database?  We are really stuck.

 

Thanks in advance,

josh

Hi Josh,

I had this happen on a test instance and it was my browser cache. Just in case, please try clearing your browser cache or using a browser that has not cached the error page.

What happens when you use the "Return to Confluence" option? That worked on my instance.

Please also try the login URL directly: <Base_URL>/login.action

I look forward to hearing how you fare.

Thanks,

Ann
