Web Resource : Could not find a file in configured directories.

[nisargmunjpara]

Hi,

I am trying to install web resource using script runner in my jira-core instance. However I am getting an error saying 'You need to configure at least one alternate resource directory before using a web-resource, see the documentation' & 'Could not find <tt>jsfile.js</tt> in configured resource directories:'.

I created one file 'script.js' and put it under 'C:\Program Files\Atlassian\Application Data\JIRA\scripts' location. 

-> script.js contains only an alert statement : alert("click"); 

I have put this line 'JVM_REQUIRED_ARGS='-Dplugin.resource.directories=C:\Program Files\Atlassian\Application Data\JIRA\scripts' in setenv.sh file as suggested in web resource documentation. I restarted jira instance several times but this seems taking no effect. I am still getting the same error as mentioned above.

I have entered below details in web resource : 

Note : some note

Context : atl.general

Key : script-key

Resources : scripts/priority.js      

   also tried, priority.js

So how can I configure resource directory so my script file can be found?

Did you ever figure this out, Nisarg?

Some of the things to check on

1. If you're using Windows, check on setenv.bat. If Linux/Unix then setenv.sh 

2. The JVM_REQUIRED_ARGS is already set in the default setenv, so you need to add add to the start/end of the existing JVM_REQUIRED_ARGS in the file instead of making a new one

From the above, I see that the path is a Windows path but the OP updated setenv.sh which is for Linux/Unix and it seems like he/she could be setting the JVM_REQUIRED_ARGS instead of adding the option to the existing JVM_REQUIRED_ARGS
