I get an error when trying to install Confluence on a local server.

[Ken Jacobs]

I installed Confluence 6.7.1 and it asked to open in a browser. When I did I got an error. Please see attached image with URL address.

According to Atlassian documentation lists the following causes of this problem:

1. The user running Confluence does not have write permissions to the home folder defined in <install>/confluence/WEB-INF/classes/confluence-init.properties or the install directory.
2. You are running Confluence as the root user or if you have an application firewall enabled (SeLinux or AppArmor).
3. The database driver is not located in the <install>/confluence/WEB-INF/lib folder or you are using a database version that is incompatible with the bundled driver.
4. The hostname of the server can not be resolved (maybe problems with confluence.cfg.xml file).
