Symptoms

While upgrading JIRA and using JAVA 7, the following appears in the atlassian-jira.log:

2013-08-02 14:42:34,319 localhost-startStop-1 WARN      [factory.transform.stage.ScanDescriptorForHostClassesStage] The plugin 'jira-gadgets-plugin-6.0.5.jar' uses a package 'com.atlassian.jira.dashboard' that is also exported by the application.  It is highly recommended that the plugin use its own packages.

Cause

It's a bug with Felix framework, the argument  -XX:+AggressiveOpts doesn't working with JAVA version 7.

Resolution

  1. Shutdown JIRA;
  2. Remove the argument  -XX:+AggressiveOpts from the start up options;

  3. Restart JIRA;
