Installing/Running ATlassian Jira on Mac OS under Tomcat 7

Daniel Mooney December 11, 2013

I'm trying to install/run Atlassian Jira on my MacBook(OSX 10.8.5) under Tomcat 7. I've downloaded the archive and expanded with the "embedded" version of Tomcat. When I try to connect my browser to localhost 8080, I get the "Welcome to Tomcat" page. If I change the port to 8280 and point the browse to localhost:8280, the same "Welcome to TomCat" page. I then wanted to build the Jira war file but build.sh is not available.

If you're trying to install JIRA for development purposes, I'd have to recommend launching it from the Atlassian SDK:

atlas-run-standalone --product jira

But to address your initial problem, have you tried going to localhost:8080/jira?
