Details

    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

    Description

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

      When the external database is not started, starting Confluence results in it hanging indefinitely without producing any output. When Confluence is unable to access the database, it should output an explanatory error message to the logs and command window such as:

      Confluence Cannot Start
      Could not access database at "jdbc:mysql://localhost/confluencedb?autoReconnect=true"
