The installation docs are for anyone wanting to install the software, they can't be more simple, because they have to cover a lot of situations.

You need to follow those guides to get it installed, but they do have to try to cover a lot of variations, so they have a lot more information than most of us really need.

However, if you really need a hard no-fuss instruction:

Install a supported operating system
Install the software to handle tar.gz files (if the OS does not do it for you)
Download the tar.gz
Uncompress it into the install directory you want
Create a home directory (to hold a load of working info, as well as attachments and plugins)
Edit the properties file to point to "home"
Run the start-jira.sh/bat
Go to the Jira UI and set the rest of it up
Get your network DNS to point your desired URL to the server you installed Jira on
Change Jira's base-url to match

Hi Nic,

Thank you. I was able to change the port using the server.xml file.
