move confluence to another server

Jose Medina
Jose Medina December 21, 2016

I need advice on how to migrate confluence to a new server. I'm currently using redhat 5.11, mysql 5.0.95 and tomcat 5.5.23. I would like to move to redhat 6.8, mysql 5.1.73 and tomcat 6.0.24.

 

I tried rsyncing the install and home directory to the same location and also did a mysql backup and restored it to the new server and copied the confluence.xml into tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost.

I didn't need to edit the jdcb connection because it was using localhost and I made sure the database account is on the new server. The error that is thrown in tomcat and atlassian-confluence.log are not very user friendly.

The standard process, pretty much from Confluence 4.0 is at https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/migrating-confluence-between-servers-184150.html

If you've followed that guide and still have errors, we'll need to know what they are if you want help.

I'm using confluence 3.3 and I followed the instructions from that guide. However i'm unsure on some steps.

on Step 4 from that guide it says to delete the content from the home folder, do I need to get confluence  running first with an empty home dir?

3.3 may be a little different, it's been a while since I used 3.  But I think it's the same basic idea.

I would get Confluence running empty first - that way you know it's working on the new server.

I tried to do an empty install and got an error when it tried to create the schema.

 

The following error(s) occurred:Configuring the database failed. Couldn't create the database schema.

I don't know what could be doing that - your installation is broken, but I don't know what you've actually done to install it, or even what you're installing.  Check the prerequisties for the version you are installing first though.

I was able to get the empty confluence to work, however when I replace the database and the home directory I get the following errors. I've been trying to get this resolve for over a week and have not made any progress. The confluence home directory is about 36GB.

That suggests that there is something bad in the config in your home directory.

Try this next:

  • Go back to your clean empty and working system
  • Stop it
  • Go to the home directory and change just the database config, so that instead of looking at your clean database, it's looking at the one with your data in it (the file is dbconfig.xml or confluence.init.xml or something like that)
  • Start it up

Do you get the same or similar errors?

That implies it's trying to upgrade on start up.  Is your empty system the same version as the source? 

Also, are you using a supported version of Java for this?

No I have not, I couldn't find it anywhere, I started the whole process from scratch using Java 1.7.0 and was able to get it to work.
