This question is in reference to Atlassian Documentation: Configuring a MySQL Datasource in Apache Tomcat
is incorrect. It should be:
url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/confluence?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=utf8"
otherwise error:
The reference to entity "characterEncoding" must end with the ';' delimiter.
is shown in the Catalina log and Tomcat does not work.
I do have the same issue on ubuntu.
Solution is described here:
https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=8496
You need to have this line:
ysql://localhost:3306/confluence?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=utf8"
url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/confluence?useUnicode=true;characterEncoding=utf8;" worked for me at macOS
