Description
NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Server. Using JIRA Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.
Currently we have this page in our documentation with a thorough explanation with steps on how to use JIRA over SSL.
We also have inside the $JIRA_INSTALL/conf/server.xml file a commented text with 4 steps on how to do that that seems much simpler/faster than the steps in the page.
To run JIRA via HTTPS:
- Uncomment the Connector below
- Execute:
%JAVA_HOME%\bin\keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA (Windows)
$JAVA_HOME/bin/keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA (Unix)
with a password value of "changeit" for both the certificate and the keystore itself.- If you are on JDK1.3 or earlier, download and install JSSE 1.0.2 or later, and put the JAR files into
"$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext"- Restart and visit https://localhost:8443/
Is there any difference in using the documentation page method or the commented method?
If the method in the server.xml file is somehow not recommended, should we keep it there?
