Where do scripts go?

Michael Johnston April 14, 2023

Complete Jira newbie here.  I'm trying to migrate from a Jira Server (running on Windows Server) over to a Jira Datacenter (running on Linux), but I'm having some issues with groovy script locations.   Both are running v8.2

 

On Linux, I put them in "/var/atlassian/application-data/jira/scripts/" and they're recognized. On the Windows installation, however, I have them in c:\Program Files\Atlassian\Jira\scripts and they are not showing up.  Am I putting them in the right location?  

 

Thanks!

Thank you for the reply, Bonniec.  

We learned that the sweet spot for these groovy scripts is actually in C:\Program Files\Atlassian\Application\Jira\scripts.  

We'd checked permissions (they were inherited), and the files were named correctly with the .groovy.  Apparently, groovy files are like real estate...location, location, location...

Hi @Michael Johnston 

Is c:\Program Files\Atlassian\Jira the JIRA Home folder ?

Also are file in .groovy ?

Are permissions on the file correct ?

Did you restart the service ?
