## Project services
Integration with services such as Campfire, Flowdock, Gemnasium, HipChat,
Pivotal Tracker, and Slack are available in the form of a [Project Service][].
-You can find these within GitLab in the Services page under Project Settings if
-you are at least a master on the project.
-Project Services are a bit like plugins in that they allow a lot of freedom in
-adding functionality to GitLab. For example there is also a service that can
-send an email every time someone pushes new commits.
-Because GitLab is open source we can ship with the code and tests for all
-plugins. This allows the community to keep the plugins up to date so that they
-always work in newer GitLab versions.
+[Project Service]: ../project_services/project_services.md
-For an overview of what projects services are available without logging in,
-please see the [project_services directory][projects-code].
+## SSL certificate errors
-[jenkins]: http://doc.gitlab.com/ee/integration/jenkins.html
-[Project Service]: ../project_services/project_services.md
-[projects-code]: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/tree/master/app/models/project_services
+When trying to integrate GitLab with services that are using self-signed certificates,
+it is very likely that SSL certificate errors will occur on different parts of the
+application, most likely Sidekiq. There are 2 approaches you can take to solve this:
+
+1. Add the root certificate to the trusted chain of the OS.
+1. If using Omnibus, you can add the certificate to GitLab's trusted certificates.
+
+**OS main trusted chain**
+
+This [resource](http://kb.kerio.com/product/kerio-connect/server-configuration/ssl-certificates/adding-trusted-root-certificates-to-the-server-1605.html)
+has all the information you need to add a certificate to the main trusted chain.
+
+This [answer](http://superuser.com/questions/437330/how-do-you-add-a-certificate-authority-ca-to-ubuntu)
+at SuperUser also has relevant information.
+
+**Omnibus Trusted Chain**
+
+It is enough to concatenate the certificate to the main trusted certificate:
+
+```bash
+cat jira.pem >> /opt/gitlab/embedded/ssl/certs/cacert.pem
+```
+
+After that restart GitLab with:
+
+```bash
+sudo gitlab-ctl restart
+```

-to GitLab Community Edition as well.
-
----
-
-GitLab can be configured to interact with [JIRA Core] either using an
-on-premises instance or the SaaS solution that Atlassian offers. Configuration
-happens via username and password on a per-project basis. Connecting to a JIRA
-server via CAS is not possible.
-
-Each project can be configured to connect to a different JIRA instance or, in
-case you have a single JIRA instance, you can pre-fill the JIRA service
-settings page in GitLab with a default template. To configure the JIRA template,
-see the [Services Templates documentation][services-templates].
-
-Once the GitLab project is connected to JIRA, you can reference and close the
-issues in JIRA directly from GitLab's merge requests.
-
-## Configuration

-
-- [JIRA configuration](#configuring-jira)
-- [GitLab configuration](#configuring-gitlab)
-
-### Configuring JIRA
-
-First things first, we need to create a user in JIRA which will have access to
-all projects that need to integrate with GitLab.
-
-We have split this stage in steps so it is easier to follow.
-
----
-
-1. Login to your JIRA instance as an administrator and under **Administration**
- go to **User Management** to create a new user.
-

-
- ---
-
-1. The next step is to create a new user (e.g., `gitlab`) who has write access
- to projects in JIRA. Enter the user's name and a _valid_ e-mail address
- since JIRA sends a verification e-mail to set-up the password.
- _**Note:** JIRA creates the username automatically by using the e-mail
- prefix. You can change it later if you want._
-

-
- ---
-
-1. Now, let's create a `gitlab-developers` group which will have write access
- to projects in JIRA. Go to the **Groups** tab and select **Create group**.
-
- ![JIRA create new user](img/jira_create_new_group.png)
-
- ---
-
- Give it an optional description and hit **Create group**.
-
- ![JIRA create new group](img/jira_create_new_group_name.png)
-
- ---
-
-1. Give the newly-created group write access by going to
- **Application access > View configuration** and adding the `gitlab-developers`
- group to JIRA Core.
-
- ![JIRA group access](img/jira_group_access.png)
-
- ---
-
-1. Add the `gitlab` user to the `gitlab-developers` group by going to
- **Users > GitLab user > Add group** and selecting the `gitlab-developers`
- group from the dropdown menu. Notice that the group says _Access_ which is
- what we aim for.
-
- ![JIRA add user to group](img/jira_add_user_to_group.png)
-
----
-
-The JIRA configuration is over. Write down the new JIRA username and its
-password as they will be needed when configuring GitLab in the next section.
-
-### Configuring GitLab
-
->**Note:**
-The currently supported JIRA versions are v6.x and v7.x. and GitLab
-7.8 or higher is required.
-
----
-
-Assuming you [have already configured JIRA](#configuring-jira), now it's time
-to configure GitLab.
-
-JIRA configuration in GitLab is done via a project's
-[**Services**](../project_services/project_services.md).
-
-To enable JIRA integration in a project, navigate to the project's
-**Settings > Services > JIRA**.
-
-Fill in the required details on the page, as described in the table below.
-
-| Setting | Description |
-| ------- | ----------- |
-| `Description` | A name for the issue tracker (to differentiate between instances, for example). |
-| `Project url` | The URL to the JIRA project which is being linked to this GitLab project. It is of the form: `https://<jira_host_url>/issues/?jql=project=<jira_project>`. |
-| `Issues url` | The URL to the JIRA project issues overview for the project that is linked to this GitLab project. It is of the form: `https://<jira_host_url>/browse/:id`. Leave `:id` as-is, it gets replaced by GitLab at runtime. |
-| `New issue url` | This is the URL to create a new issue in JIRA for the project linked to this GitLab project, and it is of the form: `https://<jira_host_url>/secure/CreateIssue.jspa` |
-| `Api url` | The base URL of the JIRA API. It may be omitted, in which case GitLab will automatically use API version `2` based on the `project url`. It is of the form: `https://<jira_host_url>/rest/api/2`. |
-| `Username` | The username of the user created in [configuring JIRA step](#configuring-jira). |
-| `Password` |The password of the user created in [configuring JIRA step](#configuring-jira). |
-| `JIRA issue transition` | This setting is very important to set up correctly. It is the ID of a transition that moves issues to a closed state. You can find this number under the JIRA workflow administration (**Administration > Issues > Workflows**) by selecting **View** under **Operations** of the desired workflow of your project. The ID of each state can be found inside the parenthesis of each transition name under the **Transitions (id)** column ([see screenshot][trans]). By default, this ID is set to `2`. |
-
-After saving the configuration, your GitLab project will be able to interact
-with the linked JIRA project.
-
-For example, given the settings below:
-
-- the JIRA URL is `https://jira.example.com`
-- the project is named `GITLAB`
-- the user is named `gitlab`
-- the JIRA issue transition is 151 (based on the [JIRA issue transition][trans])
-
-the following screenshot shows how the JIRA service settings should look like.

-## JIRA issues
-
-By now you should have [configured JIRA](#configuring-jira) and enabled the
-[JIRA service in GitLab](#configuring-gitlab). If everything is set up correctly
-you should be able to reference and close JIRA issues by just mentioning their
-ID in GitLab commits and merge requests.
-
-### Referencing JIRA Issues
-
-If you reference a JIRA issue, e.g., `GITLAB-1`, in a commit comment, a link
-which points back to JIRA is created.
-
-The same works for comments in merge requests as well.
-
-![JIRA add GitLab commit message](img/jira_add_gitlab_commit_message.png)
-
----
-
-The mentioning action is two-fold, so a comment with a JIRA issue in GitLab
-will automatically add a comment in that particular JIRA issue with the link
-back to GitLab.
-
-
-![JIRA reference commit message](img/jira_reference_commit_message_in_jira_issue.png)
-
----
-
-The comment on the JIRA issue is of the form:
-
-> USER mentioned this issue in LINK_TO_THE_MENTION
-
-Where:
-
-| Format | Description |
-| ------ | ----------- |
-| `USER` | A user that mentioned the issue. This is the link to the user profile in GitLab. |
-| `LINK_TO_THE_MENTION` | Link to the origin of mention with a name of the entity where JIRA issue was mentioned. Can be commit or merge request. |
-
-### Closing JIRA issues
-
-JIRA issues can be closed directly from GitLab by using trigger words in
-commits and merge requests. When a commit which contains the trigger word
-followed by the JIRA issue ID in the commit message is pushed, GitLab will
-add a comment in the mentioned JIRA issue and immediately close it (provided
-the transition ID was set up correctly).
-
-There are currently three trigger words, and you can use either one to achieve
-the same goal:
-
-- `Resolves GITLAB-1`
-- `Closes GITLAB-1`
-- `Fixes GITLAB-1`
-
-where `GITLAB-1` the issue ID of the JIRA project.
-
-### JIRA issue closing example
-
-Let's say for example that we submitted a bug fix and created a merge request
-in GitLab. The workflow would be something like this:
-
-1. Create a new branch
-1. Fix the bug
-1. Commit the changes and push branch to GitLab
-1. Open a new merge request and reference the JIRA issue including one of the
- trigger words, e.g.: `Fixes GITLAB-1`, in the description
-1. Submit the merge request
-1. Ask someone to review
-1. Merge the merge request
-1. The JIRA issue is automatically closed
-
----
-
-In the following screenshot you can see what the link references to the JIRA
-issue look like.
-
-![JIRA - submit a GitLab merge request](img/jira_submit_gitlab_merge_request.png)
-
----
-
-Once this merge request is merged, the JIRA issue will be automatically closed
-with a link to the commit that resolved the issue.
-
-![The GitLab integration user leaves a comment on JIRA](img/jira_issue_closed.png)
-
----
-
-You can see from the above image that there are four references to GitLab:
-
-- The first is from a comment in a specific commit
-- The second is from the JIRA issue reference in the merge request description
-- The third is from the actual commit that solved the issue
-- And the fourth is from the commit that the merge request created

-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### GitLab is unable to comment on a ticket
-
-Make sure that the user you set up for GitLab to communicate with JIRA has the
-correct access permission to post comments on a ticket and to also transition the
-ticket, if you'd like GitLab to also take care of closing them.
-
-### GitLab is unable to close a ticket
-
-Make sure the the `Transition ID` you set within the JIRA settings matches the
-one your project needs to close a ticket.
