Any reason why this wouldn't be working?
Does it say anything after that in the log? Do you have any firewalls running that might block it?

as far as firewall goes, i also can't connect over my phones LTE signal, so that's probably ruled out.

Ok, that says Confluence is running within Tomcat, but what does the Confluence log say?

There should be a lot more than that in the log, it looks like it's not starting in full.

Ok spring errors like that are usually caused by incompatible versions of java, JIRA, and/or tomcat.
Could you explain what you've installed it from and on what hardware/os?

Ok, that should all be compatible. Can you have a look at what it has installed? Where has it all gone to and how are you running it? (What's the startup script?)
