Stash SQLServer Setup

Dave44

Hi,

I am trying to setup a new stash server with Sqlserver 2012 SP1

When getting up to the web based stash installer I put in my DB details I get

A database error has occurred.

I was wondering where I could find more details on what the error actually is?

Thanks,

dkaing,

Foremost, apologies for the difficulties here. It appears I regressed our error handling while I was making other changes. I've created STASH-3448 to track this issue. The fix will be included in our 2.4.2 release.

In the interim, since I know that doesn't benefit you much, there are two possible approaches for getting more useful messaging.

Option 1: Turn up debug logging

Modify stash-config.properties (in your STASH_HOME directory--you may need to create it if it doesn't already exist) to include the following:

logging.logger.ROOT=DEBUG
logging.logger.com.atlassian.stash=DEBUG

The exception that is preventing setup should appear in the debug logs.

Option 2: Directly configure the database

If you are trying to migrate, you cannot use this approach. For a clean setup, though, you can directly modify stash-config.properties to add the following 4 properties:

jdbc.driver=com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
jdbc.url=jdbc:sqlserver://HOST:PORT;databaseName=NAME;
jdbc.user=USER
jdbc.password=PASSWORD

Where "HOST" is the database host, "PORT" is the port (may be omitted if SQL Server is listening on 1433), and "NAME" is the database name.

If you're attempting to use some of the more interesting/exotic SQL Server options, you must modify stash-config.properties directly in this fashion. Attempting to tease non-standard settings into the JDBC URL via the UI is unsupported and almost certain to cause failures.

If there is an error with your configuration, Stash will fail to start and display an error page in the browser. In the logs you'll be able to see the exception thrown by the JDBC driver.

Again, my apologies for the ugliness of both possible approaches.

Best regards,

Hi dkaing,

You can find the logs in $STASH_HOME/log/atlassian-stash.log. Do they give you anything more useful?

Cheers,

Nothing really useful in there. See below:

Are there any logs found in the database server?

Is there a way to use windows auth instead of SQL auth?

Thanks,

Bryan Turner

dkaing,

Yes, it is possible. However, it is not supported (or even possible) via the Stash UI. See Connecting Stash to SQL Server, specifically the "Use Integrated Authentication (Optional)" section, at the bottom of the page, for a description of how to do it.

Bryan Turner,

In order to use 'Option 2' as given above - is there a preferred method to get past the Stash Installer screen that requires the user to select an Internal or External database?

Dave44

If you do option 2 that prompt will not happen.
