com.atlassian.config.ConfigurationException: Couldn't save confluence.cfg.xml to /home/mysql directory.

explains that the user running Confluence doesn't have enough read/write permission to /home/mysql. You will need to grant all access to /home/mysql to the user who runs Confluence. This is covered in this KB as well.
