    Description

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      When starting up Confluence, messaging like the following appear in the catalina logs:

      29-Apr-2020 16:58:21.348 WARNING [main] org.apache.catalina.startup.SetAllPropertiesRule.begin [SetAllPropertiesRule]{Server/Service/Connector} Setting property 'debug' to '0' did not find a matching property.
      ...
      29-Apr-2020 16:58:21.374 WARNING [main] org.apache.tomcat.util.digester.SetPropertiesRule.begin Match [Server/Service/Engine] failed to set property [debug] to [0]
      29-Apr-2020 16:58:21.378 WARNING [main] org.apache.tomcat.util.digester.SetPropertiesRule.begin Match [Server/Service/Engine/Host] failed to set property [debug] to [0]
      29-Apr-2020 16:58:21.423 WARNING [main] org.apache.tomcat.util.digester.SetPropertiesRule.begin Match [Server/Service/Engine/Host/Context] failed to set property [debug] to [0]
      29-Apr-2020 16:58:21.437 WARNING [main] org.apache.tomcat.util.digester.SetPropertiesRule.begin Match [Server/Service/Engine/Host/Context] failed to set property [debug] to [0]
      

      This is caused by the use of a property named debug in various sections of the server.xml file.  For example:

      <Server port="8000" shutdown="SHUTDOWN" debug="0">
      

      While this property may have been valid at some point in time, it is not currently valid according to Apache Server documentation.

      This suggestion is to remove all references to this property in the following files:

      • server.xml
      • synchrony-proxy.xml
      • conf#synchrony-proxy.xml

      Additionally, all related online Atlassian documentation that includes examples of these xml files and reference this invalid property should be updated as well.
