Confluence Startup Error - loading com.atlassian.gadgets.opensocial

[Nico K]

I get the following ERROR after I set up a freshly installed Confluence 5.1.3 environment (Java 7, Tomcat 6.0.37, EAR/WAR, Linux SLES11, Oracle11.2g-database):

I already tried the following:

• adding -Datlassian.plugins.enable.wait=300 to the catalina.sh
• deleting the plugin-folders in <CF-Home> and restarting CF
• setting the permgen-size from 256 to 384 and/or 512

Any suggestions? It's my 10th CF-installation on linux and I never had this issue before.

This error usually occurs when your plugin imports a package from another bundle with a specific version constraint and either the bundle providing that package doesn't meet those version constraints, or there is no bundle available that provides the specified package.

[William Zanchet [Atlassian] · Accepted solution]

Hi Nico,

You're probably thinking, why my previous environment wasn't working. It's because we only support JDK/JRE from Oracle as you can see here:

https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Supported+Platforms

So problems like that could happen, as the application was designed under Oracle's environment.

Cheers,

WZ

Just in case someone has the same issue:

We solved the problem. The problem was a wrong Java Environment (in this case IBM Java from the SLES-repository). Changed it manually to the official Oracle Java and everything works fine now. Didn't notice it in the first place.
