=======================================================
Solution:
If you are not a root user, you are only authorized to run sudo command for start.sh, shutdown.sh, Jira-start.sh, Jira-shutdown.sh.
1. You need to ask your root user account to Grant 777 to folder /opt/atlassian/jira/work/ because you need to delete the file catalina.pid first before you run the shutdown.sh command.
Delete file catalina.pid under folder /opt/atlassian/jira/work/
go to folder /opt/atlassian/jira/bin/ to run command below:
>sudo ./shutdown.sh
shutdown again one more time to ensure all processes stop.
>sudo ./shutdown.sh
Check JAVA process to see if any process running or not
>ps -ef | grep java
2. Follow instruction below to increase the limit of number files to open. Root user account has to do this.

After finishing the above task, you need to start up JIRA process. Go to folder below:
/opt/atlassian/jira/bin/ to run the startup command.
>sudo ./startup.sh
Go to your browser http://hostname:(http port number) ; example http://123.234.1.344:8080
If it is not shutting down, try to force it
>sudo ./catalina.sh stop –force (this command is under /opt/atlassian/jira/bin/ )
