SEVERE: Error listenerStart on Confluence startup

[William Roush]

I installed Confluence, ran into issues with the reverse proxy and MySQL configuration that lead to me missing most of my language files, remove and reinstalled...

Now I can't get the system to start, I went through and removed _3_ duplicate Confluence user accounts (confluence, confluence1, confluence2) and their startups that got created while I've been trying to fix this. I'm back down to one account and one script, and when running "/etc/init.d/confluence start" after nearly _6 minutes_ Catalina's logs dump this:

And I get a:

Sigh, didn't purge /var/atlassian, some configs were sticking around.

Getting rid of those and reinstalling fixed it.

And nope, no other errors were reported.
