We didn't change anything on the system and restart does not solve the problems. We are running Bitbucket and Jira on the same machine without any problem.

Kind regards

Hello @TK !

As I understand, Confluence does not start up after restarting the server. Also, you stated that no changes were made prior to the issue.

With this in mind, I can recommend that you check this knowledge base article:

• [Confluence Server] Confluence does not start due to Spring Application context has not been set

There are some reasons as to why this error comes up and the article gives detailed information about those reasons.

Let us hear from you!
