frequently asked Jira Interview Questions and Answers !!
1. See the Supported Platforms page to learn which version of Jira you are installing. It will provide you information about the supported operating systems, browsers and databases.
Note:
2. If you install Jira on a 32-bit system, you must reduce the maximum amount of heap available for Jira. 2GB is the default size 64bit system which is very high for a system with 32 bit and may be unsuitable for available memory.
Follow these steps once you have extracted files from the archive, but even before you start Jira.
Go to the Jira-install-directory/bin directory and remove the setenv.bat/.sh file (edit its name).
Label setenv32.bat/. sh as setenv.bat/.sh. Jira will use that file during startup.
Go to the home directory of Jira, and change the jira-config.properties file. In case there is no file, you may create it.
Add the properties below:
jira.index.batch.maxrambuffermb=256
jira.index.interactive.maxrambuffermb=256
3. Executing Jira as a service on Windows indicates that your Jira application will start automatically once Windows is started. You need to use the Windows installer if you wish to execute Jira as a Service.
In the event that you decide not to use Jira as a service: You need to start and stop Jira by executing the file start-jira.bat in your Jira installation folder.
Jira will be executed as the Windows user account which is used to install Jira, or you may choose to operate it as a dedicated user. (This user requires complete read and write access for the installation folder and the base folder). Jira requires a manual restart when your server is restarted.
4. In order to start Jira in production, you must have an external database. Refer to the Supported Platforms page for the version you are installing for a list of currently supported databases. If you do not have a database, then PostgreSQL is the best choice. It is free, easy to configure, and has gone through many tests with Jira.
5. You require a valid Jira software server, Jira service desk server or Jira Core server license to operate JIRA.
6. Before installing Jira, make sure that you are using a supported Java version and that the JAVA_HOME environment variable is set properly.
Jira applications will work with Oracle JDK, OpenJDK, or JRE. To verify the JAVA_HOME variable:
