Confluence Create Spins Forever

[jmathers]

I've installed Confluence 5.8.1 using the SDK (atlas-run-standalone --product jira) to do some plugin development work. Everything looks great with the config, except when I push the Create button. The dialog opens, but the spinner wheel goes forever.

I can create users, edit settings, edit existing pages, and add blog pages so it seems to be something to populating the dialog box.

I'm running Confluence 5.8.1 on OS-X with Oracle JDK 1.8.0_25 and the H2 database.

There's nothing I can see in the logs to point to an issue.

Any ideas on what to do?

Does this address your problem: https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/31671265/atlassian-confluence-creating-pages-hangs-forever-behind-apache-proxy ?

[jmathers]

No as I do not have anything behind a proxy server. I have installed the atlas version (atlassian's standalone build for eval and dev purposes) of confluence so that I can develop a plugin. I'm still having this issue. I did update to the latest revs of everything. I see the same issue in Chrome and FF-Dev. I can edit pages, add users, add comments, just not create anything (space, pages, etc.) as the dialog never populates and the spinner just goes forever.

I do see this error in the firebug console: GET XHR http://my-mbp.wks.jnj.com:1990/confluence/rest/create-dialog/1.0/blueprints/web-items [HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error 176ms] Downloading resources: css!/confluence/s/d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e-CDN/en_GB/5994/NOCACHE1/130b9855b342644c0900aa7c7a66bbc4/_/download/contextbatch/css/create-content,-atl.general/batch.css js!/confluence/s/ab6ef18d03d6a5aa802d2f90ded6b490-CDN/en_GB/5994/NOCACHE1/130b9855b342644c0900aa7c7a66bbc4/_/download/contextbatch/js/create-content,-atl.general/batch.js?locale=en-GB!order

I got the same problem on my linux server. Does any one know how to solve this problem?

[jmathers]

This is a clean install with nothing added.

Here's the startup console output:

If one of your blueprints has a problem, the symptom may be similar (spinning and no log enties). I experience this issue on my development machine if I have an error in my configuration.

You could try to disable add-ons that provided page blueprints to check if this is the case on your production machine.

But this is only a guess ...

[jmathers]

I've got a clean install - nothing added so I don't think this is an issue.

[jmathers]

No it does not - this is all local on my laptop and accessing local on my laptop.
