Confluence Setup

Hi, I've been trying to connect to my Confluence server, but no matter what I try, I get either a 403 Forbidden error, or a 404 Not Found.

Is there a specific interface that I need to use with ScreenSteps to get it to integrate with Confluence?

I've tried (result):

http://my.confluenceserver.com/ (403)

http://my.confluenceserver.com/confluence/ (403)

http://my.confluenceserver.com/confluence/login.action (404)

And included my username and password that work just fine at the above URLs.

Thanks!

Dave

I also get a 405 error (HTTP method POST not supported by this URL) on a URL such as:

http://my.confluenceserver.com/confluence/display/WOL/Home

Thanks again,

Dave

I'm getting the same problem. I verified that I have Remote APIs enabled but am getting a 404 error.

This option used to work for me. I recently upgraded to Confluence 3.0 and to the latest version of ScreenSteps and now it won't work. Perhaps Confluence's API changed with the new 3.0.0_01 release?

I just downloaded and ran Confluence 3.0 and wasn't able to recreate the 404 error using ScreenSteps 2.6. I was testing on my local machine.

The full url to the Remote API for Confluence is:

http://my.confluenceserver.com/rpc/xmlrpc

although ScreenSteps will add teh /rpc/xmlrpc part if you just specify

http://my.confluenceserver.com

Maybe try adding on the rpc/xmlrpc part and see if that helps? If not, is your server available at a location where I could try connecting to it?

That worked!

Thanks Trevor.

Appending "/rpc/xmlrpc" solved the problem on my setup too! Thanks very much!

I get

Which version of ScreenSteps are you using? A fix for https issues with Confluence was included in 2.5.0 build 138. Previous versions may have had issues connecting over https.
