I understand you are installing Confluence and you ran into some database and cache issues. Now you are seeing the "Spring Application context has not been set" error even though you checked the file system permissions.

Please check all the resolutions on the article: Confluence does not start due to Spring Application context has not been set. The error can occur because of database or name resolution issues as well as file system permissions.

Please let us know more about the database and cache issues you ran into before. That could help point us in the right direction to resolve the current issue.
