Team,
I have purchased JIRA Software Server 8.12.2 version for 25 users and installed in my Azure VM connecting to Azure SQL Single Database.
I have setup the JIRA by manually setting it up configuring the database. The JIRA is up and running.
But, it uses tomcat to spin up the web server and when someone restarts the VM, we have to manually start the JIRA again.
What are are trying to accomplish is,
1) Currently, when we run the start-jira.bat it spins up the Tomcat host in the command prompt. Can we just add the start-jira.bat to the start-up list as part of the VM starting? or Do we have to install the tomcat server and then host JIRA?
2) We wanted to do a HTTP redirect from HTTP to HTTPS.
3) We wanted to configure HTTPS for JIRA.
How can we accomplish this?
Thanks,
Prasenna
Hi @prasenna.kannan ,
if you install Jira as root, you can even add it as a service, then it can be automatically be started and stopped out of the box.
If you install it as a normal user, you can create a start/stop script like here https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/start-jira-applications-automatically-in-linux-828796713.html
For port redirection and HTTPS I would prefer to set up an reverse proxy (Apache or nginx) that does the port redirect and the SSL endpoint and Jira runs behind that reverse proxy.
This is an example using nginx https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/configure-jira-server-to-run-behind-a-nginx-reverse-proxy-426115340.html
