Component Diagram - keywords "node", "database", etc. don't work on Confluence plugin

Question

I am trying out plantUML Confluence plugin. I tried to build a component diagram using the following syntax:

database "MySql" {
[comp 1]
[comp 2]
}

the diagram returned error.

When changing "database" into "package" the diagram was parsed fine.

Any idea?

You are probably using an outdated version of PlantUML.

You can check your version with:

@startuml
version
@enduml

Could you check this and upgrade to the last version ?
