CRITICAL - Confluence Listeners have all died and all page operations fail

[Jim Bethancourt]

I realize I should be asking Atlassian support, but I don't own the support relationship, and the individual who does is unfortunately on vacation and I desparately need help. All page operations are failing -- create, edit, comment, and adding attachments.

We brought down and restarted our Confluence 5.0.3 instance last night after adding more space to the disk partition where it was running (someone had added extremely large attachments and filled it up) and I rendexed Confluence this morning since the indexes for new pages weren't being added.

The common stacktrace message between the page edit and add failures in the Caused By section is

Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/atlassian/confluence/core/DefaultDataSourceFactory$NamedDataSource

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Jim

Turns out the problem was that we had run out of disk space. Admins added more space to the Linux partition and that solved the problem. Whew!
