JAVA and JIRA, Confluene and Crowd

DWedekind

Hi,

I am new to JIRA, Confluence an d Crowd and maybe this question has already beed answered.

I have to add Crowd to our environment for webbased SSO - no AD or LDAP. Database is a SQL2012 Standard Edition.

The setup for JIRA and Confluence was based on the installer which also provides a JRE. But Crowd needs a JDK. As these three applications has to run on a single server I am wondering how to configure this. Are there any best practices, tips,... someone could provide?

Thx for any help on this issue.....

Hi @DWedekind

Since all three applications run on the same server, I suggest that you actually install a JDK 8 on that server and that all three applications use that same JDK instead of the embedded JREs:

• For Jira, you will find instructions here: https://confluence.atlassian.com/jira/how-to-use-system-jre-instead-of-embedded-jre-303661422.html
• For Confluence, you will find instructions here: https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/how-to-use-system-java-instead-of-the-bundled-jre-302811269.html
