Confluence - No longer can create pages - spins....
Asked by Justin Bleich:

All of a sudden with confluence when i go to create a page it just spins and spins and then eventually pops up and says "Something went wrong after loading the editor. Copy your unsaved changes and refresh the page to keep editing."

I have shut off all the AV stuff and that did not help.

- Did you check application [logs](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/working-with-confluence-logs-108364721.html) for any errors?   
- When did you start seeing this issue, did you see this on other spaces and is any other user facing this issue.   

Usually a page refresh should fix this issue. I also remember facing a similar issue and to resolve my issue I restarted [Synchrony](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/unable-to-edit-any-pages-in-confluence-due-to-collaborative-editing-867362716.html), you can give that a try if you would like to. If not then you need to check your application logs ( `<confluence-home>/logs/atlassian-confluence.log) `to find the error. I would be happy to take a look at your logs.  

Best,  
Sachin.

body: Ah, that's catalina.out log files under installation dir, can you check the logs under confluence-home (c:/confluence/data/logs/atlassian-confluence.log) and open the atlassian-confluence.log file from todays timestamp when you faced the issue.

body: It does appear to have something to do w/ that Syncrhony you were talking about? When you say you restarted it, i have done a server reboot....i dont see a service called that either...

author: Sachin
body: Yeah, sometimes a server reboot or confluence restart would not kill the synchrony process, so try to follow below steps and see if it helps

### Restart Synchrony {#toc-hId-1167531224}

Navigate to Confluence Administration \> General Configuration \> Collaborative Editing and click on "Restart Synchrony".

Afterward, try to create a new page or edit an existing one and see if the issue is resolved. If not, proceed to the next step.

Is this on the server or in the UI?


author: Sachin
body: This is on the UI, you need confluence Admin rights to goto the admin section.
