Description
NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.
Working on Ubuntu Server latest, I generally install Atlassian applications on home directories of their dedicated users. In this case, I install Confluence under following folder hierarchy:
/home/confluence |_ current/ = INST_DIR |_ .home/ = HOME_DIR |_ backups/ = Location where old backups are held, everytime I upgrade
It all works good. When using MySQL as the production RDBMS, I first install libmysql-java library which fetches JDBC drivers:
sudo apt-get install libmysql-java
The latest driver is generally linked through /usr/share/java/mysql.jar file. In all my Atlassian product installations, I just link to that file. For example, in the case of Confluence, I link to that location from INST_DIR/confluence/WEB-INF/lib/mysql.jar. Generally it works with other Atlassian software, but for some reasons Confluence doesn't like this method. The error in log file is evidently permission related, although I have target file on 0777:

Is there any way to fix this behaviour?
