If you have a runaway Adaptavist script, how do you kill it?

[Colin McDermott_GLiNTECH]

If you have an instance of jira and are running Adaptavist, and you have written a script that just keeps running. 

How do you kill that adaptavist script?

If you have any logs in the script that you want to kill then I have some workaround for you.

You can find the process name in the atlassian-jira.log file, in my case it was like

2022-11-17 16:30:50,229+0100 http-nio-8080-exec-40494 INFO ....

The "http-nio-8080-exec-40494" is the thread name. So, now you can do something like this in the Console:

Thread.getThreads().each {
   if (it.name == "http-nio-8080-exec-40456") {
      it.stop()
   } 
}

It should stop the script.

thanks, that saved my ass :-) (frankly spoken)

Hi Colin, 

Currently you would have to restart Jira to kill a ScriptRunner script. There is a feature request for this here you can vote/follow: https://productsupport.adaptavist.com/browse/SRJIRA-3685

Kind regards,

Katy
