Thanks to Gavin and Sarah, I was able to acquire a $5 license for confluence a few days ago. Sarah was kind enough to point out the fact that two of the super hot plugins can actually be used for free.
The installation of confluence went smoothly but when it came down to the installtion of the plugins, i kept on getting the following error:
After some in depth research, i found out that this error was due to the fact that MySQL has a max_allowed_packet variable that controls the maximum size of its communication buffer. To set the max_allowed_packet variable for mysql to a value of for example 16MB, you can follow one of the two options:
Option1:
Login into the MySQL Administrator >>Startup Variables >> Advanced Networking(Tab) >> Data /Memory Size >> Max Packet Size and set it to 16MB
Option 2:
Use either of the following commands:
shell> mysql --max_allowed_packet=16777216
