Cause
The file atlassian-bundled-plugins.zip is either not present in <CONFLUENCE-INSTALL>/confluence/WEB-INF/classes/com/atlassian/confluence/setup, or is not readable by the user running Confluence. This has been reported to occur when using Solaris's tar to extract the Confluence tarball.
Resolution
- If you used Solaris's tar to extract Confluence, try using GNU tar instead.
- If the file is not readable by the user running Confluence, grant read permissions for
atlassian-bundled-plugins.zip, and execute permissions for all directories up to and includingconfluence/WEB-INF/classes/com/atlassian/confluence/setup If the file is missing, re-extract
confluence/WEB-INF/classes/com/atlassian/confluence/setup/atlassian-bundled-plugins.zipfrom the tarball (atlassian-confluence-version.tar.gz) or zip file (atlassian-confluence-version.zip)
