how to make confluence work with localhost

[Jean Robertson]

net.sf.hibernate.engine.SessionFactoryImplementor.getConnectionProvider()] is not allowed.

When trying to connect to http://localhost:8090 Solution provided does not work.

Host is resolving just fine.

Is there another cause to this?

I'm afraid there's too little information here to help you.  You haven't told us anything more than "Server is running, confluence doesn't work, and here's one line of log, out of context".  You haven't told us what "solution provided" was, or how it has failed, or told us what the responses from the server are when you connect to it locally.

Could you tell us if Confluence is running, what the bottom of the log says, and what happens when you use a browser on the server to connect to localhost:8090

[Jean Robertson]

The server a redhat rhel7 machine.
Oracle is installed.
JAVA_HOME is defined properly.

The solution was provided on:
https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/confluence-generates-confluence-is-vacant-error-on-install-779164449.html

The solution fails because I can do "host localhost" and get the correct answer.

The browser is on the server, thus http://localhost:8090 does work and tomcat gives an error message.

Here is the full error message from /opt/atlassian/confluence/logs/catalina.out

What do you get when you try "ping localhost" on the server?

[markoned]

[root@muc-conf01 opt]# ping localhost

Could you post that as a new question, and with a full problem description?  Necroposting out of context reaches a limited audience and gives us too little to work with.
