Hello,
I am still pretty new at all this. I have XAMPP installed on the computer I wish to run JIRA on. I was reading that you can use Appache to allow external access to JIRA and I noticed that JIRA requires MySQL. If I wanted to run JIRA through those services (Using XAMPP), do I need to install JIRA to the htdocs folder in the XAMPP directory? Or am I fully misunderstanding everything?
Thanks in advance
Chris
Restart JIRA and try configuration one more time,
Thanks, that worked for getting the db set up. I still cannot access Jira publicly using my (pulic-ip:8080). I have added port forwarding on my gateway for port 8080. Is there something I need to do with Appache to get this working?

Hello Chris - I am not well versed in Apache HTTP so I cannot say much here with confidence.
But I can be of some assistance based on my style of configuration.
Have you done any setup on Apache HTTP ? started anywhere ?

After you've downloaded it - place it in /lib folder under your JIRA Installation directory.

You need to place just the .jar file not the whole folder :-)

Why not install JIRA separately and then point your Apache HTTP from your XAMPP to JIRA - with the XAMPP database behind JIRA.
You can certainly give it a try :-) .
I haven't tried it - just a thought.

I did think about that but I would have no clue on how to do that. I am really new to all this. Still at university and they wont teach us how to set JIRA up. If we want to use it, we need to figure it out. :)

You know Chris - If I had been you , I'd start with simple JIRA installation.
1) Try doing a standalone installation - JIRA has Application Server( Apache Tomcat) and Internal Database( H2) that comes bundled , so both get installed automatically with it,
2) Next - try using External DB that comes with XAMPP. I am assuming that if you have JIRA database created already in your XAMPP with corresponding schema - user. Try connecting your JIRA to this database now.
Connecting to external DB is pretty simple - just dbconfig.xml file and details of DB as its content. But do ensure that Database and Schema is ready before hand.
3) Apache HTTP Server can be done last :p

I have tried doing the basic installation and then linking it with a db that I created for it with the corresponding user. When I change it to use mysql in JIRA, it just says no sql driver found.
