Symptoms

The Bamboo installation with MySQL gets stuck at the 'Choose a Database Configuration' screen either with an error similar to the following or by showing a frozen spinner, claiming to be installing the database, that returns to the same page after refreshing the browser with no errors in the UI.

Cause

This problem is caused by an incorrect or missing JAVA_HOME or incompatible JDK and Java version.

Workaround

  1. Try to finish the installation with the embedded HSQL database, if it works, you are not experiencing the problem explained here since this issue happens regardless of the database type.
  2. Double check the database URL and make sure it's entered correctly ( Example: jdbc:mysql://localhost/bamboo444latest?autoReconnect=true). There is an issue with Bamboo that if the URL is incorrect it doesn't show any errors in the UI: Display an error message in the UI if the database URL is incorrect.
  3. Check the java version by running java -version and make sure it's compatible with the version of Bamboo that is installed: Bamboo supported platforms
  4. Run echo %JAVA_HOME% and check if it's pointing to the correct JDK. (Ex.: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_10) if it's not or the variable doesn't exist add it with the correct value, restart Bamboo and continue with the installation.
