XML export fails on embedded DB

Riedl-Taras

I am migrating evaluation Jira server to datacenter (self hosted, VM)

And I want to export data to XML according to manual

https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver073/migrating-jira-applications-to-another-server-861253107.html

However, this issue happens:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/bind/DatatypeConverter
	at com.atlassian.dbexporter.node.stax.StaxStreamWriter$1.setContentAsBinary(StaxStreamWriter.java:108) [?:?]
	at com.atlassian.dbexporter.node.NodeBackup$RowDataNode.append(NodeBackup.java:238) [?:?]
	at com.atlassian.dbexporter.exporter.DataExporter.exportRow(DataExporter.java:171) [?:?]

I have seen https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/jira-xml-backup-fails-throws-java-lang-noclassdeffounderror-javax-xml-bind-datatypeconverter-895910465.html 

but how to do it with embedded DB?

How can I fix it?

Hi Taras,

It is still possible to access the H2 embedded database.  We have a KB that details the steps needed to do so.  Please see Accessing JIRA's H2 embedded database for more details.

Once you follow that guide it should help provide you access to where you can then follow the steps in the second link you cited in order to delete the specific AO table with the BLOB data within it.

Try this and let me know if this helps.
