Problems installing JIRA7 with Oracle

Francisco Franc1

Hi.

 

I've a problem installing JIRA on Linux accesing to a Oracle Database.

This is the log of the error.

2016-03-31 15:57:13,787 JIRA-Bootstrap INFO [c.a.j.config.database.DatabaseConfigurationManagerImpl] The database is configured. Now running Database Checklist Launcher

The same JIRA was running perfectly from a local computer with Windows 7. After to change to the Linux accesing to the same database configuration the problem happens

It exits a problem and it's imposible to install JIRA 7.1.1 and 7.1.2 in Oracle database.

To solve it I've copied the class JiraDatabaseConfigChecklist from the 7.0.5 version.

Since 7.1.1 it seems it tries to update the field PARAMETERS from ClusteredJob entity to a BLOB (which is a BLOB) and the java.sql.SQLException: ORA-22858: invalid alteration of datatype appears.
