atlassian jira data center UPGRADE

Affected: >= 7.6.4 and <= 8.1.0

Fixed in: newer than 8.1.0

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 7.6.4

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy jira-data-center || rpm -q jira-data-center || jira-data-center --version

2. UPGRADE to newer than 8.1.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade jira-data-center

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade jira-data-center

Note

Distros often backport fixes without changing the version number. Confirm with the distro advisory or changelog.

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE to a release before 7.6.4 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison jira-data-center sudo apt install jira-data-center=<VERSION_BEFORE_7.6.4> sudo apt-mark hold jira-data-center

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

dnf --showduplicates list jira-data-center sudo dnf downgrade jira-data-center-<VERSION_BEFORE_7.6.4> sudo dnf versionlock add jira-data-center

Downgrade risk

Downgrading can break dependent software and may reopen older bugs. Read the distro advisory first and test on a non-production host.

After downgrade

Restart the service, and keep the package held until a fixed release ships.
