Working on the plugin tutorial

[Devin Grace]

I have been trying to complete the Confluence blueprint plugin tutorial and have been doing it inside a Windows 10 Virtual machine. I have completed the install of the plugin with "atlas-create-confluence-plugin" in the command line and now I used "atlas-run" to get the server up.

When it runs, sometimes it finishes, sometimes it will freeze. If it does finish, I go to the local host site like instructed but can never seem to connect to it through the browser (I am using the vm browser to try and access it). This also applies to the Atlassian Plugin SDK tutorial.

Does anyone have experience with creating plugins within a virtual machine and/or know how to consistently get the server to complete as well as access the plugin through the browser?

Any help is welcomed!

What does the terminal output say when the service is running and fails?  And the log?

For the jira plugin these are the last 5 lines before it freezes:

No errors given. And here is the Confluence plugin 5 lines:

[INFO] [talledLocalContainer] INFO: Starting ProtocolHandler ["http-nio-1990"]

 This also does not give any errors in the command line. Thanks for your interest in this! As for when the Confluence completes, the website just gives a 404 error.
