Upgrade an old version of the Jira Server integration

Use this procedure only if you are upgrading to the latest version of the Veracode Integration for Jira from a version earlier than 3.5.0.

Before you begin:

You must have Jira administrator permissions.

To complete this task:

Sign in to Jira as administrator and uninstall any previous versions of the Veracode Link plugin.
note
Do not remove the Veracode Link custom field that the integration created during the installation.
Run this SQL query in the Jira database to confirm that there is only one record for the Veracode Link custom field:
```
SELECT
    ID, CUSTOMFIELDTYPEKEY, CUSTOMFIELDSEARCHERKEY
FROM
    customfield
WHERE
    cfname = 'Veracode Link';
```
If the SQL query returns multiple records for the Veracode Link custom field, before continuing to the next step, you must remove the duplicate Jira issues.
Stop the Jira server.
Create a backup of your current Jira database, including triggers, stored procedures, functions, and events.
Delete these files from directory {jira-directory}/atlassian-jira/WEB-INF/lib:
- Any previous versions of the Veracode Jira import plugin file veracode-jira-flaws-synchronizer*.jar
- vosp-api-wrapper-java{version}.jar
- esapi.jar
- ESAPI.properties

Run this SQL query in the Jira database to remove any unnecessary Veracode Link custom field definitions:

DELETE FROM customfield
WHERE CUSTOMFIELDTYPEKEY='com.veracode.jira.plugin.synchronize.veracode-jira-flaws-synchronizer:veracode-link-field' 
AND CUSTOMFIELDSEARCHERKEY='com.veracode.jira.plugin.synchronize.veracode-jira-flaws-synchronizer:veracode-link-searcher';

Run this SQL query in the Jira database to update the Veracode Link custom field definition:

UPDATE customfield
SET CUSTOMFIELDTYPEKEY='com.veracode.jira.plugin.synchronize.veracode-jira-flaws-synchronizer:veracode-link-field',
CUSTOMFIELDSEARCHERKEY='com.veracode.jira.plugin.synchronize.veracode-jira-flaws-synchronizer:veracode-link-searcher'
WHERE CUSTOMFIELDTYPEKEY='com.veracode.jira.plugin.link.VeracodeLink:veracode-link-field'
    AND CUSTOMFIELDSEARCHERKEY='com.veracode.jira.plugin.link.VeracodeLink:veracode-link-searcher';

Commit the changes to the Jira database.
Start and re-index the Jira server.
