Nic Brough -Adaptavist- Expert

See https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver/upgrading-jira-applications-938846936.html for a supported method. The problem with binding these into RPMs is that they might not be suitable for your particular install. Your snippet of log also seems to point to something that the RPM seems to have missed, or…

As you have Jira Software, you already have Core - Software runs on top of it. I'd skip the second install, and have a look at the business project types available in your current Jira.

I would use ScriptRunner, because it can insert web-fragments that can run scripts (your button), it gives you a lot of flexibility and power, and I have access to lots of free SR resources because I work for Adaptavist (the vendor) - I can yell for help from the people who write and maintain it. There are others, and I…

Your question explicitly said you were using a custom rpm, which is not a supported upgrade method. What are you actually doing to upgrade here?

Not easily, as the sprints are entirely based on ranks. You can drag things into a sprint or directly edit them and change the sprint one at a time.

Depends on what you mean by "Jira account", but assuming you mean "access to a specific Jira system", you will need to either * Use the "sign up" option (which is only available on systems where the admins have enabled it) * Contact the admins or owners of the system and ask them

You've got a custom field called "original estimate", and you've added that to the screen. This is not the same as Jira's "original estimate". Please see the first sentence in the previous comment, this explains how the estimates work.

Components and versions are independent entities at a project level, there is no relationship or link between them, single or multiple.

An issue statistic gadget can only use list type fields - ones with fixed lists of options.

What is your RPM package doing differently to a supported upgrade method?

Jira needs those directories for the local node data. Shared storage is too slow and complex-to-negotiate for a lot of the data each node needs to hold, so you can't just slap everything into shared storage. A lot of data needs to remain local to each node.

The post-function runs at a certain point in the workflow. If you do not go through that transition again, the value in the field will not change.

"Jira" is "Jira Core". It was renamed at version 7.0. Jira Core is a platform you can add other applications to. Currently Jira Software and Jira Service Desk are the two applications available at the moment. What version of "Jira" have you already installed? Why are you trying to install another Jira? (Not that there's…

You'll need a hideous join between project, a load of tables with "scheme" in the name, some more tables with os_ as a prefix, a couple with workflow and then jiraissue. Please, don't try to read the database, it's the worst possible way to get information from Jira. Could you explain what you are trying to achieve, we can…

Very true, it is derived from original estimate and worklogs, it's not a "field" in its own right. It is offered to us in logging work by saying "adjust remaining estimate", but that doesn't write it back as a simple field, its part of the estimate.

I think assignee in (alice, bob, charlie) is the sort of thing you are looking for? 

This can be done with a standard custom field - go to custom fields, and add one, selecting "cascading select" as the field type.

99%+ of the things thrown into spam are done by the bots. They can be a little bit over-enthusiastic though, and chuck away false positives (and they're not great at spotting some of the other tricks spammers use). I think you tripped them up with three blocks of very cody stuff which tends to look more spammy than plain…

Ok, that's no problem, there's a lot in these applications and it's not easy to find. As a new admin, the admin search function is your friend. Go to the global configuration (any of them - cog to the top right and select one of applications, system, whatever), and near the top of the screen, you'll see an admin search…

Start with creating an application link between the two, this will give you some "federation" with activity streams and linking. Then, as @[deleted] says, define exactly what else you want, in human terms. You say "transmitted to the developer in the form of a ticket" - does that mean you want the SD to automatically…

It depends on the report you are using. Most of them ask for various parameters (including fields) in order to build their displays. It actually sounds like you need to build a custom report, but "show issues <field> wise" and "weekly" does not really tell me enough to work out quite what you want.

Jira does not have project level custom fields, we just get the project lead and description. You'll need an app to provide project fields, https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1210816/profields-jira-project-custom-fields?hosting=cloud&tab=overview is for server and Cloud and is the only one I have worked with (there may…

I assume this is during a transition that "closes" the issue? Check the transition in the workflow for "post-functions", I think you have one in there that says "set resolution to fixed" - this will override what your people are choosing on screen as it happens after their selection.

I think you have misunderstood a few things here. * A semantic point mostly, but it is categorically not a bug. A bug is an unwanted behaviour that the designers and builders of a system did not intend. Jira is behaving as intended here. So it cannot be a bug. People complaining about it does not make it a bug. * If you'd…

Yes, it is down to rank, the rank is not an order of process, it's a position in a list. I can't think of a way to make this sequence appear, other than doing something very complex with scripted fields, which would then remove ranking from the board.

I think this is a good pointer to the problem >Unable to create directory for deployment This usually means that you have got the wrong ownership and/or permissions on the directories for Jira. The most common way for this to happen is when you try to start it as the wrong user. That user takes ownership of parts of the…

I am a little bit stuck on what you have done in question 1. I think you might be misunderstanding how "localhost" works. It always means "the machine I am on now". Localhost on a server means "this server", localhost on your laptop means "this laptop", and so-on. dbconfig.xml is a file that configures the Jira server's…

I can't think of one that doesn't involve some form of scripting (allow it to create page in the wrong place, then try to move it) or a new "create from template" macro that has the "in another space" parameter.

Yes we do, and I've seen it in other places. As a consultant rather than a developer, the pattern of work is not well suited to doing Scrum properly, but daily standup is one thing that is really helpful. We're often not co-located and settled on Zoom as the way to do stand-ups a long time ago. We don't often work with…

This does not sound right to me, and is totally different from my experience Participants, watchers and @ mentions all stamp a list of accounts on to an issue. Your assessment of "don't be a participant and a watcher" is definitely incorrect. When an event triggers a notification, Jira looks at all the users on the issue…
