This page lists the supported platforms for JIRA 7.0 only. If a particular platform or a particular platform's version is not noted on this page, then we do not support it for JIRA 7.0.

Further information:

  • Please ensure you have read JIRA requirements, since not all the platforms listed below may be required for your specific JIRA setup.

Supported platforms for JIRA 7.0

 Supported platform(s)Supported version(s)Notes
Java platformsOracle JDK / JRE (formerly Sun JDK / JRE)
  • 1.8
 
Operating systemsMicrosoft Windows 
  • JIRA is a pure Java-based application and should run on any supported operating system, provided that the JDK / JRE requirements are satisfied.
  • Please see Anti-Virus in JIRA for more information.
Linux / Solaris 
  • JIRA is a pure Java-based application and should run on any supported operating system, provided that the JDK / JRE requirements are satisfied.
  • Atlassian only officially supports JIRA running on x86 hardware and 64-bit derivatives of x86 hardware. If you are installing JIRA from an archive, you should create a dedicated user account on the operating system to run JIRA, since JIRA runs as the user it is invoked under, and therefore can potentially be abused.
  • Although the JIRA Linux Installer is designed to install successfully on all 'flavors' of Linux, we only test the JIRA Linux Installer on CentOS Linux.If you encounter problems with the JIRA Linux Installer on your particular flavor of Linux, we recommend installing JIRA on Linux from an archive file.
  • NFS mounts are not supported due to Lucene requirements. Please see the IndexWriter docs for more information.
VirtualizationVMware  
  • Please read our Virtualizing JIRA (JIRA on VMware) guide for information on the required configuration of VMWare.
  • We are unable to provide any support for VMWare itself.
  • All of the operating systems listed in the 'Operating systems' rows above are supported for VMware.
Application serversApache Tomcat
  • 8.0.x*
  • Deploying multiple Atlassian applications in a single Tomcat container is not supported.
Mail servers  
  • SMTP servers must be able to support the multipart content type.
Databases
(additional notes)		Oracle
  • Using Advanced Compression Option (ACO) is not supported.
MySQL
  • We support 5 series GA releases from 5.1 to 5.6.x.
  • The MySQL driver is no longer bundled with JIRA, as of JIRA 5.2. Please see the JIRA 5.2 Upgrade Notes for reasons why we do not bundle this driver.
  • Neither MariaDB nor PerconaDB are supported. Both are proven to cause problems with JIRA applications.
  • MySQL 5.0.x is not supported, as it is essentially EOL and only covered under Oracle Sustaining Support.
  • We recommend running MySQL in strict mode.
  • JIRA does not support 4 byte characters, regardless of MySQL version.
    • If you must use 4 byte characters, we recommend you use PostgreSQL.
PostgreSQL
  • 9.3
  • 9.2
  • 9.1
  • 9.0

JIRA is tested and bundled with the 9.1 JDBC driver. You can also use the latest JDBC driver for your PostgreSQL version listed here, though we can't guarantee that it will work with your version of JIRA. To use a different JDBC driver:

  1. Stop your JIRA instance.
  2. Remove the bundled driver from <JIRA_INST>/lib/.
  3. Download the new driver and place it in <JIRA_INST>/lib/.
  4. Restart your JIRA instance.
Microsoft SQL Server
  • Express Editions are not supported.
H2
