Accessing Atlassian in
CloudShare – HTTP
Recorded Classes
This Recorded class includes the same content as Atlassian in-person classes, and you have
the option do the same labs. You can revisit the recorded content as often as you'd like for
30 days (from your date of purchase), and you can access a lab machine within the same 30day time period for up to 24 consecutive hours. The 24-hour clock starts once you activate
the lab machine. The labs shouldn’t take more than 3-4 hours, so plan well. Lab time can’t
be extended.
Introduction
This document describes how to access the CloudShare lab environment to perform the
hands-on exercises, as described in the Atlassian lab workbook. These instructions are
specifically written for students accessing a Recorded Class.

•
You must be connected to high-speed Internet
•
Your network must be able to access to public websites like Yahoo.com or CNN.com
•
You must use a current version of one of these web browsers: Firefox, Chrome, or
Safari. Regardless of version, Internet Explorer may not work.

4. Troubleshoot the CloudShare Lab Environment
If you have problems accessing JIRA or Confluence, the issue may be on your end. Be sure your
network allows full access and that your browser is up to date. Your network may be blocking
access to CloudShare or you may be using an older or non-recommend browser. You should also
follow the tips below, but if none of them work, please contact us.
Troubleshooting tips
1. Disconnect from the VPN or Proxy server, since they could be blocking access
2. Connect to a different network, or connect to a different WiFi network (i.e., as guest)
3. Avoid using Internet Explorer; instead install a recent version of FireFox, Safari or Chrome
4. Reboot or Revert the CloudShare server – see the instructions below
5. If none of these suggestions work, please email us: training@atlassian.com
Typical HTTP web access error:
Reboot the server (pls wait at least 5 minutes after system is up):
