Why are you reading a forum as "documentation"? It's not for documentation, it's for discussion and help. (Although I would love to have a banner for "old conversation" splatted across the older discussions to discourage people from reading outdated stuff. I don't want them deleted, I know of sites still using versions of…

@Chris P - absolutely the opposite. I work for a company that doesn't do "blame". We get stuff wrong, yes. We don't blame people for getting it wrong, because we don't need to - when we get it wrong, we say so, not wait for others to say so. For the "need" to assign more than one person to a task, the answer is still "this…

The "ivory tower" is thinking that multiple assignees works. Outside the Ivory tower, in the real world, it does not.

Progress is about the issue you are looking at. Σ Progress is about the issue you are looking at, and its sub-tasks.

Nothing wrong with not being able to identify an all-time favourite. Ask a vegetarian what their favourite protein source is. Weekly. Because it is not really something we think that much about and it varies a lot.

No. You have no access to the database behind Cloud installations. For Cloud, you will need to create a new field for the data and then use bulk edit to duplicate all the values you want into it. And then kill off the old field after you've migrated

It's usable on a Pi4, but I'm with Jurgen, have a look at some other boards. https://dietpi.com/ is worth a look - originally it was for a minimal Debian install for a Pi, but it's expanded rapidly to a minimal Debian install for a shed-load of SBCs. But I mention it for a different reason. Not the OS itself, but the…

The overview of the process is Install a new clean Confluence 6.1.0, pointed at an empty database. Get it working to the point where the admin user (created during installation) can log in and see an empty Confluence. Compare all the settings files from your backup with the clean install, absorbing any changes you've made…

What do you expect from 8 year old conversations? In a place where a new release comes out every 3-6 weeks? To give you a solid answer (for 2020) though - Cloud is on "latest" with at most a 6 week lag - some Cloud installs could be up to 6 weeks out of date and still on "latest -1" If you're currently on Cloud, forget…

Have you checked the "change reporter" permission?

Have you read to the end of the upgrade checklist?

The sprint gadgets and reports will tell you how your sprint is going.

It does sound like you've bought Server, which means you will have to download and install it for yourself. If you want Cloud instead, then you will need to sign up for that separately and pay again, but then raise a support request with Atlassian about the server licence - as it was bought in error and (I assume) within…

Ok, so my guess is that you are setting the number in the field with a script, but your script does not re-index the issue after making the change to the field.

An integration account like this should be granted only the permissions it needs to do its job. There are only really two "types" of accounts in Jira - customers (very limited access, only to the portal) and Jira users. If your integration only needs portal access, give it a customer account. If it needs to do more, then…

What type of field have you created?

To start using Confluence, log into it, create a space and then create pages within that space with your content in it. There's not a lot more we can tell you about getting started. There's a "first use" wizard which gives you a brief intro, but after that, using it really is just "put your content in it"

No problem, your question was exactly the sort of thing we're here for. I could have left you with just the first line of my answer because it answers the question, technically. But you gave me an invitation to talk about how it could be done better, so I did., because I like to. And I apologise for waffling. We welcome…

I was going to say that I can't imagine a chat with Stephen Fry not being entertaining, but he does have some demons. They frighten me, not entertain, but I'm also curious and I'd like to hear how he's dealing with them. I'd guess one way is to talk of inconsequential things, of shoes and ships and sealing-wax, of cabbages…

Pair programming is the exception where it works fine. But it's also a case where you don't need to worry about it. You've worked so closely together as part of the pair, it doesn't matter which one of you is named and hence asked about it. Jira lets pair-programmers down because there's only one assignee, but it's really…

Sorry, I was trying to avoid spoiling the books for anyone who might stumble across it. Iain M Banks, (not to be confused with Iain Banks. Same person, but very very different types of book)

How have you tried to send a severity?

Yes, for now, you will. I'd like to see something a bit more clever - it's not hard to write a "phone home" system. An obvious example is Steam, which has done it since day 1. Their servers know what games I've got with them so which ones will run. Atlassian licencing has to be different and I completely understand "put…

I'm not sure I'd call it a "limitation" - I've never heard anyone ask for anything remotely like that before. Everyone working with Jira likes that the issue navigator can sort by whatever field they find relevant at the time, and that boards and backlogs can be ranked. I think you have a clumsy way of trying to prioritise…

One of my favourite authors wrote a series of books set in a fictional universe. Most of the books were stand-alone, but there were a couple that did need the reader to have a basic grounding in the way the universe was set up before you read them. The various civilisations involved, and a rough idea of the timeline if…

Yes, that's correct. You would need to hack the code that is showing the breadcrumbs. This is not possible on Cloud systems, you've no access to the code.

You should set the base url to the url that people will be using to access it. It sounds like you need that to be the external address and port, so set the base url to 101.231.20.12:10010

There is an option for agents to create issues in other projects that are automatically linked to the request. It is not possible to automatically link in other cases. Not because Jira can't do it, but because Jira cannot know whether it is the right thing to do, or what to create and/or link to. It needs an agent to make…

I am really sorry, but this usually means that your h2 database has failed. h2 is not intended to be used as a real database, it's just for dev/test/play and should never be used for any system you want to keep as a working system (even UAT or longer-term test systems). It does not scale, and is know to fail…

Jira is an issue tracker. It is most likely that Roblox are using it for tracking development tasks and possibly support calls and even other things (I've seen Jira used for tracking all sorts of things it was not really built for). If public sign-up is not enabled, you'd need to talk to one of the Roblox Jira admins to…
