There's a - Confluence is a pure Java application and should run on this platform provided the JRE or JDK requirement is satisfied.
- While some of our customers run Confluence on SPARC-based hardware, Atlassian only officially supports Confluence running on x86 hardware and 64-bit derivatives of x86 hardware.
- Ensure that you configure your Confluence MySQL database to use the InnoDB storage engine as the MyISAM storage engine could lead to data corruption.
- Confluence includes an embedded H2 database. This database is fine for evaluation purposes, but for production environments, we only support running Confluence with one of the supported external database listed on this page.
- Drag and drop in Confluence works as expected with Internet Explorer 10 in 'desktop' mode. The 'modern' mode of Internet Explorer 10 does not support drag-and-drop.
- Confluence is tested with these versions of Internet Explorer in standards-compliant rendering mode, not compatibility mode. Enabling compatibility mode may cause problems because it emulates older, unsupported rendering modes.
- Chrome does not have WEBDAV / plugin support so features such as Edit in Word for attachments will not work. Please refer to CONF-23322 for more information.
- Confluence does not support editing in Mobile Safari on iOS devices (such as iPhone and iPad). Please refer to CONF-19523 for information on the progress of this issue.
- Confluence does not support editing on Android devices.
- NFS mounts are not supported on Linux operating systems due to Lucene requirements.
- We don't currently support MariaDB or Percona Server. See CONF-36471 - Getting issue details... STATUS and CONF-29060 - Getting issue details... STATUS for more information.
- We only support the Tomcat version that is bundled with your specific Confluence version.
- You need to have Javascript enabled to install Confluence. Setting your Internet Explorer security level as 'High' will disable Javascript and prevent you from installing Confluence. See this knowledge base article for more information.
