Yes.

I'm afraid there is an easy answer to this - you have found a video that is out of date. This is not at all uncommon. With Jira server or DC, it's ok if you've searched for a specific version, but if you haven't gone for a version, it's likely to be out of date. On Cloud, if it's over 6 weeks old, it's obsolete. If it's…

No. Neither of them are designed to be file stores or shares. Both systems are intended to hold content that is immediately available (not buried in monolithic storage where documents go to die). Attachments are supplementary info or adjuncts, not the core content. They both use similar tech for attachments and it's not…

So, I'm going to avoid the main question there. SAFe defines Epic as being at a different level to Jira's Epic. Epics in SAFe are higher up. Jira does not (yet) really allow you to rename Epics (you can, technically, but it breaks some stuff. This is changing soon). To match SAFe, you want to rename them as Features. But.…

Jira isn't software that looks after "Resin Transfer Moulding" off-the-shelf. (It could, but you'd need to think about it) I suspect I've got the wrong acronym here. Could you explain what you mean without using jargon and acronyms?

If your script updates data outside the current issue, then scripts and calculations won't be updated outside it automatically. In many cases, it's fine, but you need to look at if your code affects other issues - Jira can't know if it needs to update the index if you don't tell it.

You should reuse where it makes sense to do so. Imagine trying to work out a report that could include 900 slightly different status for example? Or working in an organisation where the person next to you uses different words (in your shared language) for things that are in the same place in a process? Jira lets you work…

The simple answer is "because that's the model Atlassian have chosen". The main reason they've done this is simplicity. Many years ago, we could actually have apps (then "plugins") which you could licence for sub-sets of your users. This immediately made your job as an admin more complicated because you had to match up who…

People. It means 10 people. 99.999% of admins are also people who use Jira though, so they're "users", "developers", "agents", "testers", etc as well as admins. But the number is counted against "people who can log in", it does not look at how. If I am a developer and you are an admin and an agent, our two accounts still…

I'll plug Adaptavist a bit, as well as ALM-Works on the back of this, sort of! We at Adaptavist recommend Structure for a lot of people when they're looking at scaling Agile or even just looking better reporting at the layers above project/Epic/Story, or working across projects.

Log in as an admin, go to Admin and look for "content indexing". Your Confluence will remain usable while it runs.

Create the account, go into site admin, and add the account to the group that grants access.

Before restoration and rsync, did you stop Confluence? After restoration, and restart, do you then change the base url from production to staging, and run a fill re-index?

I'm afraid that document is about adding a custom field to an issue. Not a sprint screen.

If you remove this problem in the database, you're going to need to revert to the last backup you took and lose quite a lot of work. NEVER amend a Jira database while it is running. Even when it's offline, you probably shouldn't be touching it, as it's very unlikely you'll make a change that is right and does no damage to…

My apologies, this reply happened at a time when I was not being notified of updates by community and I missed quite a lot. The problem is not memory. There is a process behind it that is leaking memory and causing it to fall over with a memory error. I'm in the middle of an upgrade where this happened, and it was down to…

It's not a lack of memory - you can run Jira with 768m heap (just), the memory error is being caused by something else that is wrong.

See a similar question from yesterday: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-Software-questions/Add-field-on-Dialog-screen-quot-Edit-Sprint-quot/qaq-p/1425930

Perfectly, but why are you looking in the database? It's the worst possible way to look at anything in Jira and certainly never the way to amend anything.

I think I am not being clear here. There are two things you are mixing up when you say "access". Originally, you talked about "access" to your Jira environment. That suggests that you were not able to log in. I told you what might have changed to cause that. You then changed "access" to mean "I cannot see or do things in a…

The database contains the build number of the current data set. You'll want to go back to a Confluence version that matches the database and upgrade it.

Ok, that looks fine. You'll need to give the Tomcat more memory to work with. Increase the heap by amending the -Xmx setting in the setenv.sh file in <confluence install>/bin

Start at https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver/upgrading-jira-applications-938846936.html for the technical side But you are going to need to find the people who "own" the system and have access to it.

Do not try to do this in the database, you will almost certainly destroy your Jira installation. The document you are using is only about deleting boards that have failed to be created. Take a step back and look properly at what you are trying to achieve. Why are you doing this? Why have you jumped into doing it the wrong…

Correct.

In your video, Alexey's answer is why. Your issue types are configured differently.

With a question devoid of any context, the best we can do here is say "click on the link and log in"

You either should see the issue or not at all. This suggests your index is broken somewhere. Start by re-indexing the system and checking again.

Those documents give you the fastest and smoothest way to migrate between databases.

So you have not lost access, you've just had your project permissions changed. An admin (Jira admin or project admin) has removed your access to the project, either by changing the permission scheme for it, or removing you from groups or roles. You'll need to check the project permissions.
