Backup and Restore changing OS and DB

[Robert Egan]

We are currently in the process of migrating our Atlassian products from a Linux/Postgres environment to a Windows/MSSQL environment.

Given the complexity of transforming SQL between engines, and the different way paths are handled, it was decided to the the XML generated by export to perform the migration. Jira worked, with a few minor issues that were recorded in the logs and therefore be addressed immediately.

Confluence did not work, and there was nothing generated in the logs.

Any ideas are welcome. Let me know if you need more details.

Not mentioned in the original question, but very important as it turns out, we are using an Apache httpd server for reverse proxy. I had to increase the timeout setting on the ProxyPass above the default.

ProxyPass / ajp://127.0.0.1:8009/ retry=0 secret=**** timeout=600

Did either the JVM or the server run out of memory? XML dump is a pretty expensive operation for the application. If you have memory headroom on the server, try increasing the JVM heap space values
