To be clear, you don't mean "Epic as issue field type", you mean you have added Epic as an issue type (issue type is not a field) The error you are getting is because the Epic issue type requires an Epic name to be entered, exactly as you suspect. So, yes, you do need to add the field to the create screen. You should be…

There are no plans to drop DC. It's unlikely to even be discussed until all the big clients have told Atlassian that they're moving off it for whatever reasons, and that's just not happening any time soon. There's been a lot of movement from Server to DC, as Cloud simply isn't suitable for a lot more people than you'd…

No, the story has its own estimate and work logging. If you then look at the "time tracking" stuff in your screenshots, you can see there is a tick-mark for "include subtasks", which toggles the display between "current issue" and "sum of current issue and subtasks" In your other two screenshots, you're seeing some…

There are two ways for a person to get access to a knowledge base space, and it is unclear which method you might be talking about here. 1. Jira service management customer users get access to the knowledge-base linked to the portal(s) they can use. These customers need not set up in Jira or Confluence with roles or…

There are a few things that can cause this, the most common one being that the server can reach the Atlassian marketplace, but the connection is slow or, more usually, incomplete - the server reaches out and finds the marketplace but something blocks the data coming back from it. You will need to read the logs to find out…

You can use issue.setOriginalEstimate() to set it on an issue instead of customfield.updatevalue() And that leads to the assumption for me that issue.getOriginalEstimate answers your first problem (An assumption that I did just look up too, it's right) The modified value is a pair of values, old and new, for the field…

I am a bit stuck on what the problem is here. Your first screenshot is showing the time tracking (original estimate, work logs and remaining estimate are all part of the time tracking field), and beneath it, the original estimate for the current issue of 0 The dash in the left-hand side looks like the sprint estimate,…

I thought you were referring to the selection when you said it "couldn't find the field". Sorry, totally wrong guess, ignore that! The other thing that it might be is if the user does not have permission to set the security level - who has that? 

Welcome to the Community! The licence for the app has expired. You'll need to buy a new one and apply it to the system.

String fields don't convert numbers to that format, they read everything as a string. Of course, if you copy and paste an E-formatted number in, it will retain the E as a string. But just putting plain characters into a string field won't convert (put some spaces in if you're unsure - 0207 123 4567 for example, can't ever…

Jira is a bit inconsistent in its naming sometimes - could you try looking for "level" instead of "security"?

What are you looking for from a link to Jira?

Confluence isn't a 3D modelling program, it's a wiki. But it is extensible, so it is possible to write something that could display your models (securely, whatever you mean by that). Have you looked for an app that can do this anywhere?

No, you don't need anything in there. But it can be useful. I don't actually know if it can do absolute dates, but it will accept relative ones - things like +3 or -5, for "three days in the future" and "five days ago". If you leave it blank, it simply assumes "now"!

You do not, that's the whole point, the page names are unique (within a space). They're supposed to be. In Confluence, you can do what Cesar has, you do it by making Product 1 and Product 2 different spaces.

Is this for certain pages within the space, or is it all pages? Does it occur for the space tools/config as well as pages? (It can be useful to know if the non-content screens are slow as well as content pages) Is group A spectacularly large (whilst not being the "can log into confluence" group)?

Yes, but we're not talking about labels, you can put whatever labels you want on a page. The id of a page is also a unique identifier, as is the unique name (within a space)

It's better because it is unique. That's the whole point of uniqueness - a single name refers to one single item.

Yes, that's working as intended. I think it might be easier if you think of there being two parts to most Jira reports: * There is a list of issues you want to report on * There is a report that extracts data from the list to be displayed Now, the pie chart here is simply displaying the labels on the issues you have…

Ah, excellent! Thanks for letting us know before we started the essay on options!

Because there's no need for yet another display (of something that isn't unique) when you've got a unique name.

You're spot on about Forge and Server. Server/DC and Cloud are very different beasties, and apps written for one will not work on the other. You might find you can reuse a bit of the logic, but the whole app framework is totally different. 

My apologies for the tone, I did not intend to be rude or anything bad. I was just trying to emphasise why it was designed this way and re-iterate the comparison with other wikis that also enforce uniqueness.

Could you explain what this has to do with Atlassian?

What do you mean by "removed this configuration"? Did you remove the field, the field context, the field configuration, screens, or something else?

It's not done this way for nice urls, it's done for uniqueness, search and ease of finding what you're looking for. This is not going to change. Have a look at, well, every other wiki...

What do the logs say the problem is, they should tell you where it is stuck!

Indeed, humans will find this utterly bewildering, which defeats the purpose of a service desk. Your SAP Service request list - that would be far better represented as SAP Support -> Service Request -> custom field for "area" with 12 options.

Lots. Start at https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/troubleshoot-a-jira-server-startup-failed-error-394464512.html - it's got a couple of the four you mention (I'd put the quick edit plugin.jar back where you found it), but there's a load more to work through.

Once a post function is in place, it knows what the logger and issue are, so it doesn't remind you again.
