body: Hello Kannan,

It seems as though the stop Confluence script is unable to find the PID to terminate thus being unable to stop Confluence. There are additional options in stop Confluence, such as:

1. Service Confluence status \| stop \| start
   1. **status** checks the status of the service
   2. **stop** will stop the service
   3. **start** will start the service
2. If you wish to manually terminate Confluence:
   1. ps -ef \| grep confluence
      1. This will return the PID of Confluence if running, ensure you located the Confluence service and not the database connections.
   2. Kill -9 PID

These 2 option should allow for you to end the service gracefully or close on-demand.

I hope you find this helpful and it assists with shutting down your Confluence service.

Regards,  
Stephen Sifers

Try to shutdown confluence and start again

/opt/atlassian/confluence/bin/shutdown.sh

/opt/atlassian/confluence/bin/start-confluence.sh  

Thanks,

Kannan


author: Stephen Sifers
body: Hello Kannan,

This type of error is generally related to the Confluence service running as root instead of an assigned or elevated user. Could you please confirm you're not running the service as root when those errors are displayed?

We look forward to your response so we may help resolve these errors,

Regards,

I didn't triedto run sh file while login as user confluence user

I have tried with root

Is it any default password for Confluence user

Thanks,

Kannan


author: Stephen Sifers
body: Hello Kannan,

Looks as though running as root is causing your errors above, you will need to run Confluence as a non-root user. There are details when setting up Confluence which allows you to set the Confluence user and password. Here are further details in regards to this:
> Running Confluence as a service means that Confluence will automatically start up when Linux is started.
>
> **If you choose to run Confluence as a service:**
>
> * You must use sudo to run the installer to be able to install Confluence as a service.
> * The installer will create a dedicated user account, confluence, that will run the service.
>
> **If you choose not to run Confluence as a service:**
>
> * You will start and stop Confluence by running the start-confluence.sh file in your Confluence installation directory.
> * Confluence will be run as the user account that was used to install Confluence, or you can choose to run as a dedicated user.
> * Confluence will need to be restarted manually if your server is restarted.

Reference documentation: [Installing Confluence on Linux](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/installing-confluence-on-linux-143556824.html)

If you do not know the password to the Confluence user you will need to reset it. Once reset you may use that password to run Confluence as a service.

Please let us know if this helped to resolve your reported issues within the logs.
