Confluence Synchrony Issue

Bart Kuiper February 7, 2017

I used Deploy4me to install Confluence on AWS. An t2 medium EC2 instance was created and I can access Confluence without any issues.

The standard Deploy4me install details can be found here - https://deploy4me.com/en/kb/software/confluence/where-what-how.html

Everything looks to be ok with the exception of Collaborative editing. The Status of Synchrony = Error, with the message "The Synchrony service is stopped or has errors" displayed.

I've stopped and started the service, and also increased the heap size to 1GB. 

What I am now not sure about is whether or not any additional config is required to get this working.

The contents of the atlassian-synchrony.log file are - 

root@52:/var/atlassian/application-data/confluence/logs# vi atlassian-synchrony.log

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

For Windows.

Stop the service "Atlassian Confluence Server [Confluence]".

And check if you don't have any zombie process on RAM (with task schudeler)

- java.exe (C:\Program Files\Atlassian\Confluence\jre\bin)

- java.exe (C:\Program Files\DPX\tools\jre\bin)

 

This process may be use the auto-check synchrony process on localhost.

One of these processes saved an old test configuration that still used port 8091.

And Start the service.

It was my problem, and now all work well and the colaborative module work.

 

Kind regards

The issue seen by the original poster relates to the service already running. Often this happens if the Synchrony JVM crashes or otherwise doesn't shut down properly and is still using the port. Make sure to check your process list for any running JVMs after stopping the service, then restart.

If this doesn't work, make sure to check what else might be running on that port.

The log errors relate to the default logging method being used with a missing java library and are unrelated to the problem.

If you haven't already, I'd start here: https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/troubleshooting-collaborative-editing-858772087.html

To start with: check port 8091 is available.
