Starting Jira in Linux Error, command not found

Question

Hi there,

I am trying to start Jira (it was previously up but needed to go down to do some maintenance on the box) and when I start up again using startup.sh, it returns these lines:

"jira: command not found"

Immediately afterwards it displays java usage.

I have verified that the user that runs Jira can see java by executing "java -version" and the version is 1.8.

A bit baffled about this.

Anyone else come across this?

That is Line 439 in catalina.sh

Hey.

Many thanks for responding.

Yes. This instance has been stopped and started many times. For some reason today, it just doesn't seem to want to work.

It finds catalina.sh and begins running Jira, I can see the splashscreen, Tomcat has started, but checking catalina.out, it states the "jira: command not found" after a second and fails on this line:

else

eval $_NOHUP "\"$_RUNJAVA\"" "\"$LOGGING_CONFIG\"" $LOGGING_MANAGER $JAVA_OPTS $CATALINA_OPTS

HI @Richard Karus

Welcome to the community!

Please confirm, to starting jira are you using the correct JIRA_Installation directory.
