Problem

When a Confluence cluster is started using the AWS Quickstart Template, the server.xml is created based on the template below:

• https://bitbucket.org/atlassian/dc-deployments-automation/src/master/roles/confluence_config/templates/server.xml.j2

The Tomcat Access Logging is not included in the template despite it has been enabled by default since Confluence 7.11.

Ref:

• Jira AWS Quick start on the other hand already has it enabled
• Confluence Docker image also have an option to enable it

Suggestion

Enable the AccessLogValve by default for Confluence as it is important for Support during troubleshooting
