Minyaa's Installation Procedures

The installation procedure of Minyaa Suite is, in each release, always improved.



Our main goal is to see Minyaa become more and more simple to install. The objective is hard to reach, since Minyaa is not only a plugin providing new features of JIRA, but it comes also with some alteration in existing JIRA behavior.

Installing Minyaa still requires some changes in JIRA, but all are now done automatically and do not require a restart of JIRA.

Different steps have to be followed depending on the way you deployed your JIRA.

The main installation scenarios are :

  • Installation in 5 Steps (Ideal for evaluation).
  • Installation with an already deployed WAR JIRA (Tomcat or JIRA Standalone).
  • Installation using a self-built WAR file.
  • Installation using a XML Backup with Kaamelot Data.
