Attachment file name is not showing in stored location

Question

We are not getting the same file name in the location we have specified the path for storing the attachments in HTS Jira, during creation of ticket (issue) under any project and attaching file into that ticket . But we are getting the same file with same size but in different name starting with number.

So could you please tell us know how to resolve this issue so that we can get the file with same name in the stored location what we have attached during ticket creation.

Thanks in advance for getting your reply as early as possible.

No, you're missing the point.

There is no "alternate solution" on the file names other than "use Jira as it is intended".  Your expectations are incorrect and you are NOT going to get this changed.

The only way to change this behaviour is to hack Jira core code, which is a really bad idea.

This, of course, leads to the question of why do you want this?  You shouldn't care about the names of the files in the storage system, as they are reported correctly by Jira and that's where you should be using them.

Also I want to mention that Jira was in Linux earlier and attachments were getting stored properly but after migration to Windows it is not saving with file name we attaching. So if possible could you please respond back with alternate solution as the response I got till now didn't worked out to resolve the issue. Thanks in advance to expect your quick response.

Thank you for your information. But it didn't help us to solve the issue. So could you please respond with new solution.
