Upgrade Jira

Jérôme Brandt

Hi,

I'am using JIRA 6.0 on Ubuntu Server. When I launch the ./atlassian-jira-6.1.1-x64.bin I've got this :

Where should JIRA 6.1.1 be installed?

[/opt/atlassian/jira]

It appears that JIRA is already installed in the directory you selected. Please choose a different directory.

I really need to change the directory ?

Thanks,

Have you chosen the install instead of the upgrade option? You should choose to upgrade...

Upgrading JIRA on Linux

Download the appropriate 'JIRA 'Linux 64-bit / 32-bit Installer' (.bin) file that suits your operating system (for the new version of JIRA) from theJIRA Download page.
Open a Linux console and change directory (cd) to the '.bin' file's directory.
If the '.bin' file is not executable after downloading it, make it executable, for example:
chmod a+x atlassian-jira-X.Y.bin
(where X.Y represents your version of JIRA)
Execute the '.bin' file to start the upgrade wizard.
When prompted to choose between creating a new JIRA installation or upgrading an existing installation, choose theUpgrade an existing JIRA installationoption.

This will install JIRA 6.1.1 on your computer.
OK [o, Enter], Cancel [c]

Choose the appropriate installation or upgrade option.
Please choose one of the following:

You have to choose 3!!!

1= express install

2= custom install

3=upgrade

;-)

Jérôme Brandt

Ahhhh! I will try asap!! Thanks... and sorry

Yeah that screwed me up few times too. Atlassian should really change the install so the bracketed number or letter(s) comes first.

Norman Abramovitz

If you just hit the enter(return) key, it will default to upgrade since the install noticed you had an installation already.

+1 I read description then assumed I had to hit 2 to upgrade, got confused, Ctrl+C, repeated the process without reading properly (dofus), googled, face palmed... Something not so user friendly about the layout of the option text.

Had same issue! OMG 3 it is!
