YouTrack Standalone 2020.6 Help

Configure Network Interface Binding for JAR Distribution

By default, the Jetty servlet engine and HTTP server used in YouTrack bind on the 0.0.0.0 network interface. For security reasons, this action may be restricted in some environments.

You can use the configure command to change the listen-address property for your YouTrack server. Execute this command on behalf of the same OS user that runs the YouTrack service. This command creates configuration files and folders. The YouTrack service user must have permission to access the files and folders that are created by this command.

To customize the network interface binding for a JAR distribution:

  1. Stop the YouTrack service.

  2. Open the command-line interface that is supported by your operating system.

  3. In the command line, run YouTrack JAR with the following command:

    java -jar youtrack-2019.1.12345 --listen-address=<new network interface address>
