Hi @Pandiyan Muthuraman

I am wondering if the errors you see are only results from a superior error.

In log already at timestamp 06:39:17 a FATAL error is locked leading to "Jira is locked" state.

2021-07-21 06:39:17,784+0000 JIRA-Bootstrap FATAL [c.a.jira.startup.JiraStartupLogger] Startup check failed. Jira will be locked.

 The error messages (they are more prominent, longer and look critical by their own sense) are generated later.

The root cause is not clear - but have you had a look into atlassian-jira,log also?
Hopefully there is more detailed output.

Also, can you during the startup already open a browser and point it to Jira as a normal user would? Sometimes even in an early state of Jira starting useful hints are visible in browser as to why it comes locked.

Regards,
Daniel

Are you using a reverse-proxy such as apache or Nginx? It seems like the thread is being killed as it reaches the threshold. Try increasing the threshold in the reverseproxy/load balancer config file and restart the application again.

I did restart again, now seeing "memory leak" error
