JIRA Software is unable to start

[Priyasloka Arya]

JIRA VERSION: 8.5.1

JJRE/JDK: jdk1.8.0_231

It is a new installation and  the error message is confusing. JAVA_HOME is set to 

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_231

----------------------------------

C:\Program Files\Atlassian\JIRA\bin>config.bat

find: 'JDK_JAVA_OPTIONS': No such file or directory

I was getting this error as I had Cygwin tools in my PATH.

Remove in a .bat with:

set PATH=%PATH:C:\cygwin\bin;=%

Hi @Priyasloka Arya 

Check This This is Already Solved 

Like Jamie said making below changes in the config.bat will solve the problem.

 Step -1:  verify if JDK is installed

               in my case it in installed at -> C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_181    (64-bit)

Step-2: Edit the config.bat located at -> C:\Program Files\Atlassian\Jira\bin

    once you edit you will find some text..  browse until you see :

      :gotJreHome
REM Use the java from (1) JRE_HOME or (2) JAVA_HOME; supports spaces in these paths
set _EXECJAVA="%JRE_HOME%\bin\java"

Replace set _EXECJAVA="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_181\bin\java.exe"     

                                         // If your java is pointing a different version give that path here.

Note - save a copy of the Config file before you make any changes.
