JIRA on FireBird
In order to run JIRA with the Firebird DB, the entitymodel.xml needs to be modified to adhere to the following Firebird constraints:
- TYPE, POSITION and PARAMETER are reserved keywords in Firebird
- Firebird index keys can not be greater than 250 in size
The attached entitymodel files have been modified to reflect these restrictions:
- JIRA 3.1.x entitymodel.xml
- JIRA 3.2.x entitymodel.xml
- JIRA 3.2.x entitymodel.xml
- JIRA 3.3.x entitymodel.xml
- JIRA 3.4.x entitymodel.xml
For other releases, here is a diff of the changes made:
 | Performance Note Due to the index key restriction, the performance of JIRA is greatly reduced as various elements cannot be indexed. |
Testing was conducted with Firebird 1.5.2.
