Unable to bootstrap

Question

Hello,

After restarting the confluence machine I get an error on bootstrapping the application. Trying to troubleshoot this but cannot get it to work.

Please check if the ojdbc jar file is present under right path /confluence home/confluence/WEB-INF/lib

It should also have right permissions

I got this error

Hello,

This message usually means that system can't boot because one or more configuration files are either improperly configured, or as described in this KB, got truncated when server ran out of space Confluence crashes due to insufficient disk space and truncated confluence.cfg.xml file

You should be able to see some messages predating this one that might give better indication of what exactly is corrupt.

I suggest checking server.xml file and confluence.cfg.xml files and comparing them with the one you can pull from working test system, as described in above KB.

Can you also specify what OS you have Confluence installed on?

Let me know if you need further help

Regards,

Igor
