jira.path.attachments should be removed from propertyentry table

Details

    Description

      Migrating/upgrading JIRA from one server to another may cause conflicting attachment paths between the jira.path.attachments from the application propertyentry table and the default attachment file path.

      This can cause confusion especially if the JIRA instance is moved between two different operating systems.

      For example:

      ___ Application Properties _________________
          jira.path.attachments                         : E:\Program Files   (x86)\Atlassian\Application Data\JIRA\data\attachments
      
      ___ File Paths _____________________________
      
           JIRA Home                                     : /opt/app/JIRA/Data
           Location of atlassian-jira.log                : /opt/app/JIRA/Data/log/atlassian-jira.log
           Index Path                                    : /opt/app/JIRA/Data/caches/indexes
           Attachment Path                               : /opt/app/JIRA/Data/data/attachments
      

      It is understood that this "jira.path.attachment" property is not used once the new default "Attachment Path" gets used from that point in. We would recommend possibly removing this old entry entirely from the database once the change to default occurs as to not confuse customers when looking through the logs.

      There is no functionality error

      The "jira.path.attachment" property is not used once the new default "Attachment Path" is used. This information in the System Information and jira log files can be ignored.
