The SystemInformationService could not be retrieved from the container. Therefore very limited information is available in this error report.  
The SystemInformationService could not be retrieved due to the following error: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Spring Application context has not been set

body: There's a pile of things this could be. Start with [https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/confluence-does-not-start-due-to-spring-application-context-has-not-been-set-218278311.html](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/confluence-does-not-start-due-to-spring-application-context-has-not-been-set-218278311.html?) - it is missing one other resolution - if you're not using the bundled Java, then check that the Java you are using is valid for the version of Cofluence you are using.
