Getting system error after installing Confluence server

ANUDINA August 5, 2017

I tried installing Confluence similarly I installed bit bucket and Jira. While installation when I gave my MYSQL DB it started creatting table. It took little more time than expected. Hence I refreshed the page. I get below error.

A system error has occurred — our apologies!

  2. a copy of the error and system information found below
  3. a copy of the application logs (if possible).

Your Confluence administrator can use the support request form to create a support ticket which will include this information.

We will respond as promptly as possible.
Thank you!

This gave me a fatal error "Could not load bootstrap from environment" that stops the server from loading. I do not recommend deleting this folder.

The folder deleted was half the installation, and Arnand re-installed afterwards.

You should delete the folder if you are trying to do a completely clean re-install.
