Run JIRA in port 80 as root

Question

i want to access my JIRA installation on Port 80. System: CentOS7 Jira-Version: 7.0.0

I edited the server.xml from

Connector port="8080"

to

Connector port="80"

and set the jira-user into the root-group with

usermod -a -G root jira

But if i want to open the server-url, there is no connection

ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

Afet restarting the service JIRA

There is a logfile-view

You might want to check this link:

https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRAKB/Unable+to+Access+JIRA+due+to+BindException+Permission+Denied

Anyway the solution they recommend is to reroute port 80:

iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8080
