JIRA startup failed, JIRA has been locked.

[Srinivas Patruni]

First time I am trying to configure JIRA from local workstation of windows environment. I copied linux distribution standalone folder to windows box and made necessary changes to home directory path etc. When I start I am getting "JIRA startup failed, JIRA has been locked." and no other information. Am I doing something wrong here?

More often I face this issue due to corrupted plugin cache. I could start JIRA without any issue after clearing plugin cache.

Hi it can be a lot of things. For starters have you checked this troubleshooting?

Are you behind a proxy? Could be something related to this https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/20079/plugin-sdk-does-not-use-http-proxy
