Hi @Michael , 

the exception is probably caused by SSL issues, you can find a KB article here on how to fix it : https://confluence.atlassian.com/kb/unable-to-connect-to-ssl-services-due-to-pkix-path-building-failed-error-779355358.html

For the log file, you can also change the settings so that the catalina.out log is rotated and doesn't take all the space : https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/configure-log-rotation-for-the-catalina-log-in-jira-server-224398003.html

Let me know if this helps,
