After upgrading to v8. The windows service disappeared and I cant get Jira to start properly. We are dead in the water right now.
Gus,
you can always manually recreate a Windows service:
sc create JiraSoftware8 binPath= "F:\Atlassian\JIRA\bin\tomcat8.exe.x64 //RS//JiraSoftWare8"
Please note that it's an example, and the space between after binPath is required 🤫
There's also the NSSM utility
There's also the Jira service.bat tool that does the trick.
Running Jira applications as a Windows service
Hey Gus,
Sorry you ran into this problem with the 8.0.0 upgrader. This is a known issue and tracked in JRASERVER-68865. Hopefully Johan's answer was able to help you get the service manually reinstalled.
Going forward, this issue has been fixed in Jira 8.0.1 which was released this morning. If you are still having issues with the service not running, an upgrade from 8.0.0 to 8.0.1 should reinstall the service for you. The latest release is available at https://atlassian.com/software/jira/download
Cheers,Daniel
