Please follow the steps

Stop the JIRA using ./stop-jira.sh command by changing directory to <JIRA-Install>/bin

Drop the Database.

For example database name is jiraDB
 
execute the following command
DROP DATABASE jiraDB;

Delete the JIRA-HOME using following command.

For example, if JIRA-HOME is under /var/atlassian/application-data/jira-home
1. cd /var/atlassian/application-data
2. rm -r -f jira-home

Similarly delete the JIRA-Installation directory using above command mentioned in 3

Hope this helps.

I don't know if the installer comes with the uninstall command but you'll just need to remove the /opt/atlassian/jira folder and the $JIRA_HOME folder.

Hi Scott,

Simply stopping the process and removing the folders (JIRA_HOME and JIRA_INSTALL), plus your database (if it's on the server and you'd like to get rid of it as well) should do the trick. JIRA Doesn't write any other files.
