Confluence
Vorbereitungen
Es muss ein Postgresql-Server ab Version 14 mit folgender Datenbank installiert sein:
Database-Name:
confluenceDatabase-User:
confluence-app
Siehe auch
Sicherstellen, dass im Confluence Data Verzeichnis (default: /opt/atlassian/confluence) genug Platz ist. Durch die Verwendung von Bildern und Anhängen kann das Wiki schnell sehr gross werden. Daher sollte das entsprechende Volume nicht kleiner als 100GB sein.
Installation
Das Installations-Binary kann von https://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/download-archives heruntergeladen werden.
Datei ausführbar machen:
chmod +x ./atlassian-confluence-8.2.1-x64.bin
Installer ausführen:
./atlassian-confluence-8.2.1-x64.bin

This will install Confluence 8.2.1 on your computer.
OK [o, Enter], Cancel [c]
Click Next to continue, or Cancel to exit Setup.
Choose the appropriate installation or upgrade option.
Please choose one of the following:
Express Install (uses default settings) [1],
Custom Install (recommended for advanced users) [2, Enter],
Upgrade an existing Confluence installation [3]
Select the folder where you would like Confluence 8.2.1 to be installed,
then click Next.
Where should Confluence 8.2.1 be installed?
[/opt/atlassian/confluence]
Default location for Confluence data
[/var/atlassian/application-data/confluence]
Configure which ports Confluence will use.
Confluence requires two TCP ports that are not being used by any other
applications on this machine. The HTTP port is where you will access
Confluence through your browser. The Control port is used to Startup and
Shutdown Confluence.
Use default ports (HTTP: 8090, Control: 8000) - Recommended [1, Enter], Set custom value for HTTP and Control ports [2]
Confluence can be run in the background.
You may choose to run Confluence as a service, which means it will start
automatically whenever the computer restarts.
Install Confluence as Service?

Your installation of Confluence 8.2.1 is now ready and can be accessed via

Der Installer fragt während der Installation, ob Confluence automatisch starten soll:

Ablehnen - ein Systemd-Dienst wird später manuell erstellt.

Trial-Lizenz beziehen

Database type: PostgreSQL
Setup type: Simple
Hostname: localhost
Port: 5432
Database name: confluence
Username: confluence-app
Falls vorhanden, Lizenz unter http://example.com:8090/admin/license.action hinzufügen.
Bemerkung
Wenn Confluence einmal läuft, erstellt es standardmässig jede Nacht um 02:00 Uhr ein Backup in Form einer ZIP-Datei unter /var/atlassian/application-data/confluence/backups. Möchte man Backups löschen, die z.B. älter als 10 Tage sind, funktioniert dies auf Basis von Logrotating nicht, da die Dateinamen der Backup-ZIPs einen Zeitstempel enthalten. Ein geeigneter Cronjob wäre:
00 01 * * * cd /var/atlassian/application-data/confluence/backups; find -name '*zip' -ctime +10 -exec rm {} \;
Reverse Proxy
Confluence muss vom Reverse Proxy wissen, daher im Tomcat den entsprechenden Connector aktivieren: (https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/after-upgrading-confluence-you-are-unable-to-create-new-pages-or-spaces-785457379.html)
<Connector port="8090" connectionTimeout="20000" redirectPort="8443"
maxThreads="200" minSpareThreads="10"
enableLookups="false" acceptCount="10" debug="0" URIEncoding="UTF-8"
protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"
proxyName="wiki.linuxfabrik.ch" proxyPort="443" scheme="https" />

Upgrade
Achtung
Confluence 8.5.x ist die letzte Version, die mit der „Server“-Lizenz betrieben werden kann.
Bei einem Upgrade ist das Vorgehen ähnlich wie bei einer Erstinstallation.
Die möglichen Upgrade-Pfade findet man unter https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Upgrading+Confluence (oben rechts die entsprechende Confluence-Version auswählen).
Die aktuelle Version von Confluence findet man unter https://wiki.example.com/admin/systeminfo.action oder unten in der Fusszeile der Seite.
https://wiki.example.com/plugins/servlet/troubleshooting/pre-upgrade/
Vor Beginn des Upgrades muss die Datenbank gesichert werden. Backups von /var/atlassian/application-data/confluence und /opt/atlassian/confluence werden vom Upgrader erstellt. Ausserdem wird empfohlen, vor dem Upgrade einige Configs zu kopieren:
cp /opt/atlassian/confluence/conf/server.xml /tmp/server.xml-pre-upgrade
cp /opt/atlassian/confluence/confluence/WEB-INF/classes/confluence-init.properties /tmp/confluence-init.properties-pre-upgrade
cp /opt/atlassian/confluence/bin/setenv.sh /tmp/setenv.sh-pre-upgrade
Nun kann man Downtimes festlegen und mit dem Upgrade beginnen:
systemctl stop confluence
ver=8.5.3
chmod +x atlassian-confluence-$ver-x64.bin
./atlassian-confluence-$ver-x64.bin

Existing installation directory:
[/opt/atlassian/confluence]
The upgrade process will automatically back up your Confluence Installation
Directory. You can also choose to back up your existing Confluence Home
Directory. Both directories are backed up as zip archive files in their
respective parent directory locations.
We strongly recommend choosing this option in the unlikely event that you
experience problems with the upgrade and may require these backups to
restore your existing Confluence installation.
If you have many attachments in your Confluence Home Directory, the zip
archive of this directory may consume a significant amount of disk space.

Back up your external database
We strongly recommend you back up your Confluence database if you have not
already done so.
Please refer to the following URL for back up guidelines:
https://docs.atlassian.com/confluence/docs-85/Production+Backup+Strategy
Check app compatibility
Check that your non-bundled apps are compatible with Confluence 8.5.3.
For more information see our documentation at the following URL:
https://docs.atlassian.com/confluence/docs-85/Installing+and+Configuring+Plugins+using+the+Universal+Plugin+Manager
