Question about migrating database/configuration from Windows Server to Linux (Ubuntu)

Bill Dykstra

Greetings,

We're currently running Jira (10 user) and Confluence (50 user) on Windows Server 2003 R2, with SQL Server 2005 R2.

We're interesting in moving our Jira/Confluence installation to a Linux server (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS), and I'm wondering if you have any documentation on moving the configuration/databases over from one to the other. We will run MySQL on the Ubuntu server.

Thanks,

Bill

Hi Bill,

Check it out this documentations about how to migrate content from a server to another:

https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CONF43/Migrating+Confluence+Between+Servers

https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA052/Migrating+JIRA+to+Another+Server

About migrating the content from MS SQL to MySQL, I recommend using the MySQL Migration Toolkit:

Hope it helps!!
