Hi Micah,
If the service is not able to start, you will have to check the catalina log. That file is located in <install-dir>/logs. Open the file with the "today's date" on its name. Go to the bottom of the file and search for any NullPointer or Exception about the 8090 port. That will give more details about the problem why Tomcat is not able to use that port.
By the way, if you have not added a 'context path'(/confluence) on the server.xml file, there's no need to use http://localhost:8090/confluence. You just need to use http://localhost:8090. Also, you can't run two services with the same port number. JIRA should use 8080 and Confluence 8090.
Hello,
Thank you for the quick response...
Currently, the dir "C:\Program Files\Atlassian\Confluence\logs" contains no files.
Before I uninstalled and reinstalled, I did capture this from the catalina file... it was the only line in the file.
03-Aug-2016 14:49:21.026 SEVERE [main] org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.stopServer Could not contact localhost:8000. Tomcat may not be running.
I have added the path of "/confluence to" the server.xml file.
JIRA is on 8080 and currently Confluence is on 8090. Express install of both products.
Thanks again!
