Knowledge-base is not starting after install

[Roman Kyrianov]

Dear Community,

I have running Jira Service Desk on Windows Server 2012R2 with trial licence for test.

After one day I've installed also Knowledgebase (Jira Confluence) on the same Server. After installing Jira Confluence it started http://localhost:8090/setup/setupembeddeddb-default.action and nothing happens further.

I've tried to reinstall and start/stop Service, but it impacts not really anything.

Logs have no Errors.

Have somebody any idea?

Thank you

The SystemInformationService could not be retrieved from the container. Therefore very limited information is available in this error report.
The SystemInformationService could not be retrieved due to the following error: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Spring Application context has not been set

Cause

java.lang.NullPointerException
