Confluence Docs 3.0 : Confluence starts but a problem prevents me from accessing the dashboard This page last changed on Jan 22, 2009 by ggaskell. Find a solution to one of these problems below: localhost:8080 times out localhost:8080 goes to the Tomcat start homepage Logins fail at the login screen ## localhost:8080 times out Check the server logs for errors. If you are running Confluence Standalone on Windows, error messages will be printed to the console window that opened when you ran `startup.bat`. On Unix systems, Confluence will log messages to `logs/catalina.out`. ## localhost:8080 goes to the Tomcat start homepage The CATALINA_HOME environment variable is set to another instance of Tomcat. You should run shutdown.sh, remove the CATALINA_HOME reference to the other Tomcat version, and run startup.sh again. ## Logins fail at the login screen If you try to login with the correct username and password but are always returned to the login screen without any error messages, and you are running Zone Alarm, please check that it is not blocking the Confluence server.
