I suspect you have missed something. My guess is based on you saying "Before I uncommented the the HTTPS section no connector was configured in the server.xml." That is incorrect. If there are no connectors configured in the server.xml, the Confluence/Tomcat will start, but it will not serve up anything. The fact you are…

Possible, yes. But don't. You must not skip 7.0, it will break in interesting ways later if you skip it.

The logs you have given us are typical of an ordered shutdown, there's nothing there that tells us that there is something wrong. But the culprit is quite obvious in your code - you are saying "terminate the current Java Virtual Machine", so the Jira and Tomcat get shut down as the JVM stops. Remove the System.exit() line,…

You will need to ask your admins. Whom created who is not recorded by Jira.

"Category" may mean two different things in "Jira speak", but neither of them seem to relate to how you have used it here. Could you explain what you are doing without using the word category? Is it about status or issue type?

Different software going in a different direction. Atlassian have no plan for priority schemes in Cloud

Nope, there's no change, Atlassian have no plans to bring priority schemes to Cloud.

No. Well, maybe. If the plugin provides content type things (most likely to be macros), then you can look for where those content items have been used, either with search or the admin's "macro usage" function. If it provides other functions, no, because those are not tied to pages.

To form useful queries in SQL from a Jira Software database, you need to understand the logical (done in code, not the database) relationships between these tables: AO_0201F0_KB_HELPFUL_AGGR AO_0201F0_KB_VIEW_AGGR AO_0201F0_STATS_EVENT AO_0201F0_STATS_EVENT_PARAM AO_0A5972_NOTIFICATION_SETTING AO_0A5972_PUSH_REGISTRATION…

Confluence, at its heart, is a wiki. The idea of a wiki is "write what you need to, and be instantly published" (then add a shed-load of other functions and clever stuff, but let's keep it simple for authors and readers) Forms are not a fit for that idea. But there are a lot of apps that do add forms in various ways. Some…

I would start by questioning why you think you want to do this. A well maintained computer system will run for months, stopping only for upgrades or other changes. I've seen a Confluence with an uptime approaching 18 months (Although I wouldn't recommend that, because the server running it really really should have been…

This will happen when you are a project admin who has been granted "enhanced project admin" permission. That grants limited access to edit the workflow when the workflow is only used by that single project. You can edit the transition to some extent, and you can do quite a lot about ordering and adding/removing steps, but…

No, it's not what I asked for, but it is still a very useful thing to see, and something I really would not expect a new Linux or new Jira admin to find so quickly! This bit is the most important one here: Existing PID file found during start A lot of Unix-like systems create PID files when a processes start, and a lot of…

No, the drag and drop re-ordering can only work when based on (a effectively unique) single data item. I do think there's some use for grouping then ranking, but that isn't intuitive for the users, and Jira doesn't support it. It's quite complex to explain, but if you imagine you had 5 issues in a list, 2 high priority, 2…

In the code given above, change it to write to a custom field instead of the assignee of the subtask.

Edit - apologies, completely misread the question. Jira systems are separate environments. If you want to see another system's issues in your own system, you will need some form of synchronisation - something that can read their system and copy the relevant data into your system.

No, that's what you gave us before, which is why I asked for the error message.

Yep. Edit the workflow and go to the step (status) that you want to block out. Add workflow properties to the step. See https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver/workflow-properties-938847526.html to get started with them. You'll need to be looking at the jira.permission.comment type properties, setting them to…

You'll need to ask the mail server about that. It's unlikely that Jira is "passing it wrong", as no-one has logged anything I can find that suggests they've found it doing it wrong in 8.x (well, there are a few, but they've all been resolved with "mail server mis configured, not Jira")

Impossible to tell without the full GC Allocation error message (I say full, I just mean the first few lines before it starts giving you line numbers in inscrutable bits of code)

Depends on what type of board. For some, you need to talk to the board admin, for some, you update the project config and the board follows it. That config may be partially determined by the workflow, which may be up to your Jira admins. Can you tell us what system you are on (Cloud or Server) and what the project and…

Yes, it does need a restart - the values from almost all .properties files are read at start time, not regularly while running (there are exceptions, but they're all properties outside the core of the application and the files are read on demand in those cases) You won't need to restart Crowd though. If you change the jira…

There's not a lot in it, but the order I recommend if given a free hand is Postgres, MySQL, Oracle and MS-SQL last. This is mostly because Atlassian run Postgres and build and test for it first. MS-SQL last because I've had so... many... problems with it, and a long time ago, it was so bad, we ended up with Atlassian…

Confluence is moving to a new editor. Existing pages made under the old editor are not compatible, so when you edit an existing page created with the old one, you get the old editor. New pages will use the new editor.

I'm sorry, but I do understand the need. The need is for people to understand that the software does not support doing something that is incorrect. My empathy is entirely with "I think I want, but I don't get it"

Jira does not have field level security. You would need to use separate issues to keep the estimates apart and then the issue security schemes in order to hide the ones you don't want them to see.

A multi-select field holds an array of options, not a single value. If you wrap your selected option(s) in a list of some sort, you should find it posts ok.

It's because the function you are using is for updating fields, not adding to them. If you were using a field that has multiple values, it would be adding to it, but you're using a text field, which is a single value, so it's updating.

Because it has an answer which is correct. On July 15th 2020, there was a problem with Community where a load of answers and comments disappeared (hidden or deleted, I don't know), so I suspect this was one of the affected questions. You asked on a day when you couldn't see the answer! So have another read ;-)

This depends on the file share, not Confluence. A Confluence page can link to any valid url, including file shares, but there's a couple of things that often go wrong: * People don't use shares on valid urls, they put them on url-like locations that are not understood by browsers because they're not valid * A lot of file…
