Why we are unable to create a tickets in jira?

[Santhosh Gosula]

Hello,

Good day!!

We are getting "unsupported content" error message while creating a ticket in jra. And in the re indexing page it showing "some files are missing or corrupted". Please find the attached screenshots for the same. 

Please suggest on this issue.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks,

Hi @Santhosh Gosula 

It appears that the system is encountering issues when attempting to write to the index files.

I recommend reviewing the logs for the system around the time it attempts to index, as this may provide insight into the specific errors occurring.

Regardless of what the logs indicate, you will likely end up with a similar set of troubleshooting steps:

1. Verify that the permissions on the index directories are configured correctly.
2. Ensure that there is sufficient disk space available (ideally, at least twice the size of the current index should be free).
3. If the errors logged are related to any add-ons, it may be necessary to either remove or address the problematic add-on.
4. Stop JIRA.
5. Move the entire index directory to a secure location.
6. Start JIRA again.
7. Although some aspects may appear broken, administrative links should still function - proceed with a full indexing process.

That will recreate a clean set of indices without any blocking errors hopefully.

Best regards

Hi @Santhosh Gosula 

You have two options for a full reindex:

1. Using the UI, please refer to the doc Search indexing section Full re-index
2. Removing the previous index from the server.
   1. Stop JIRA.
   2. Move the entire index directory (<localhome>/caches/indexesV2) to a secure location.
   3. Start JIRA again.
   4. The application will trigger the full reindex automatically.

Best regards

Sam
