How to change Current Working Directory?

Question

Hi,

I already changed on my configuration files the correct address to my jira home, but on JIRA it still appears the wrong address of my jira home.

Probably I miss some file, but I don't know wich file to search, the files that I made changes are:

/opt/atlassian/jira/atlassian-jira/WEB-INF/classes/jira-application.properties
/etc/inid.d/jira

opt/atlassian/jira/bin/config.sh

thank you!

If it just indicates where JIRA was started from , then I do not think it is needed to change it , right ?

Jira-home and jira install directory are already set right for me , so assuming there would be no changes needed.

@somethingblue  , Your thoughts ?

Hi Artur,

The value you are looking at (Current Working Directory) is a pointer to where JIRA was started from.  Here's how I verified this:

* Stopped JIRA
* Created /jira-second-install
* Copied the contents from /opt/jira_install to /jira-second-install
* Started JIRA from /jira-second-install

Once I performed the above steps I went back to the Settings screen and the location had changed as expected.  If you want to change the location of the home folder:

* Stop JIRA
* Move your home folder contents to the location you would like it to exist in
* Change the location using the directions in Setting your JIRA Application Home Directory or use the JIRA Configuration Tool.
* Restart JIRA

Cheers,
