software can not launch

Fei Chen_njr7a7

I am deploying JIRA in a docker container. It works fine for months. However it stops working few days ago. I am not sure whether it has relationship with the license expired problem. So I renew my license yesterday. Now I get my new license, while I still don’t know how to launch the JIRA so that I have the opportunity to input the new license. Following are some output of the JIRA when I try to access JIRA in chrome.

Hi,

Sorry to hear that there are problems with getting Jira running here. I understand you have recently renewed a license, but are so far unable to apply this new license to Jira. I can see that the log snippet you included is indicative of trying to access Jira using HTTPS on an endpoint that is not yet HTTPS enabled.

So I'd be interested to learn more about the address and port number you are trying to use to access this Jira site. I understand if you do not wish to post such data here directly. But the work-around to that specific error might be as simple as trying to make a request to the Jira site using http instead of https here.

If that doesn't help, I'd be interested to know more about your configuration to better understand what might be causing your problems with accessing Jira. In this case, I would be interested to see the contents of your

• $JIRAINSTALL/logs/catalina.out
• $JIRAINSTALL/conf/server.xml file.

The catalina.out file is created by the Tomcat webserver Jira is using. It contains startup logs for Jira that could be helpful here.  This xml file tells us what ports/addresses Jira will listen to when it starts up.  By default it has port 8080 for a single connector, but if you're using Jira in conjunction with a reverse proxy, then you might have different connector settings here so that Jira can understand how its traffic is expected to be managed here. 

If you could zip these files up, and then you could upload these files to a service like dropbox, google drive, or alike, and then share with us the link to these files.  I would be interested to take a closer look at your environment here to see what can learn to help troubleshoot this problem.

Regards,

Andy
