Configuring Connectors in Bamboo Data Center Docker for Jira Cloud Tunneling

Summary

The Bamboo Data Center Docker container is designed to automatically generate a new server.xml file from the template server.xml.j2 using environment variables. This process implies that any configurations made in the server.xml file of the currently running application will be reset to default settings upon restart.

Product version The following steps have been validated in Bamboo Data Center 9.6.3 but may be applicable to other versions.

Solution

Steps to configure the template

1. Create a mount point for the server.xml.j2 file. This ensures that the file persists through any changes, allowing updates or modifications to the image without the risk of losing changes.

2. To the Docker creation command, you will need to add the following line:

   -v /your-path/server.xml.j2:/opt/atlassian/etc/server.xml.j2 \

3. Modify the server.xml.j2 file to include the connector. It should look like this:

   <Connector port="{{ atl_tomcat_port | default('8085') }}" maxThreads="{{ atl_tomcat_maxthreads | default('150') }}" minSpareThreads="{{ atl_tomcat_minsparethreads | default('25') }}" connectionTimeout="{{ atl_tomcat_connectiontimeout | default('20000') }}" enableLookups="{{ atl_tomcat_enablelookups | default('false') }}" protocol="{{ atl_tomcat_protocol | default('HTTP/1.1') }}" acceptCount="{{ atl_tomcat_acceptcount | default('100') }}" secure="{{ atl_tomcat_secure | default(catalina_connector_secure) | default('false') }}" scheme="{{ atl_tomcat_scheme | default(catalina_connector_scheme) | default('http') }}" proxyName="{{ atl_proxy_name | default(catalina_connector_proxyname) | default('') }}" proxyPort="{{ atl_proxy_port | default(catalina_connector_proxyport) | default('') }}" {%- if atl_tomcat_address %} address="{{ atl_tomcat_address }}" {%- endif %} {%- if atl_tomcat_secret %} secret="{{ atl_tomcat_secret }}" {%- endif %} {%- if atl_tomcat_secret_required %} secretRequired="{{ atl_tomcat_secret_required }}" {%- endif %} {%- if atl_tomcat_bamboo_encryption_key %} {% set bamboo_version_parts = bamboo_version.split('.') %} {%- if bamboo_version_parts[0]|int == 9 and bamboo_version_parts[1]|int >= 5 %} productEncryptionKey="{{ atl_tomcat_bamboo_encryption_key }}" {% elif bamboo_version_parts[0]|int >= 10 %} productEncryptionKey="{{ atl_tomcat_bamboo_encryption_key }}" {%- else %} bambooEncryptionKey="{{ atl_tomcat_bamboo_encryption_key }}" {%- endif %} {%- endif %} {%- if atl_tomcat_ssl_enabled %} SSLEnabled="{{ atl_tomcat_ssl_enabled }}" {%- endif %} {%- if atl_tomcat_ssl_protocol %} sslProtocol="{{ atl_tomcat_ssl_protocol }}" {%- endif %} {%- if atl_tomcat_ssl_certificate_file %} SSLCertificateFile="{{ atl_tomcat_ssl_certificate_file }}" {%- endif %} {%- if atl_tomcat_ssl_certificate_key_file %} SSLCertificateKeyFile="{{ atl_tomcat_ssl_certificate_key_file }}" {%- endif %} {%- if atl_tomcat_ssl_pass %} SSLPassword="{{ atl_tomcat_ssl_pass }}" {%- endif %} {%- if atl_tomcat_keystore_file %} keystoreFile="{{ atl_tomcat_keystore_file }}" {%- endif %} {%- if atl_tomcat_keystore_pass %} keystorePass="{{ atl_tomcat_keystore_pass }}" {%- endif %} {%- if atl_tomcat_key_pass %} keyPass="{{ atl_tomcat_key_pass }}" {%- endif %} {%- if atl_tomcat_client_auth %} clientAuth="{{ atl_tomcat_client_auth }}" {%- endif %} {%- if atl_tomcat_truststore_file %} truststoreFile="{{ atl_tomcat_truststore_file }}" {%- endif %} {%- if atl_tomcat_truststore_pass %} truststorePass="{{ atl_tomcat_truststore_pass }}" {%- endif %} relaxedPathChars="[]|" relaxedQueryChars="[]|{}^\`&quot;&lt;&gt;" bindOnInit="false" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192" useBodyEncodingForURI="true" {%- set compression = atl_tomcat_compression | default('off') %} {%- if compression in ['on', 'force'] or (compression.isdigit() and compression | int >= 1) %} compression="{{ atl_tomcat_compression }}" compressibleMimeType="{{ atl_tomcat_compressiblemimetype | default('text/html,text/xml,text/plain,text/css,text/javascript,application/javascript,application/json,application/xml') }}" compressionMinSize="{{ atl_tomcat_compressionminsize | default('2048') }}" {%- endif %} disableUploadTimeout="true"> <UpgradeProtocol className="org.apache.coyote.http2.Http2Protocol" /> </Connector> <Connector port="8093" connectionTimeout="20000" maxThreads="200" minSpareThreads="10" enableLookups="false" acceptCount="10" URIEnconding="UTF-8" />
   After establishing the initial connector with the variables, we will hardcode the necessary values for the second connector required for the application tunnel.
