How to configure jira external issue tracker on gitlab

I can't find any information about how to configure jira as external issue tracker on gitlab.

I've tried writing the following on /etc/gitlab/gitlab-rc but is seems that it does nothing. I execute the "gitlab-ctl reconfigure" but then gitlab.yml have no changes, and I don't see any Jira option on project settings.

etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb:

gitlab-rails['issues_tracker'] = "jira"
gitlab-rails['issues_tracker_jira_title'] = " Atlassian Jira"
gitlab-rails['issues_tracker_jira_project_url'] = "http://myjiraserver/issues/?jql=project=:issues_tracker_id"
gitlab-rails['issues_tracker_jira_issues_url'] = "http://myjiraserver/browse/:id"
gitlab-rails['issues_tracker_jira_new_issue_url'] = "http://myjiraserver/secure/CreateIssue.jspa"

Have your tried what is explained in docs? doc.gitlab.com/ee/integration/jira.html - jruizaranguren
What kind of GitLab install did you choose ? Omnibus or the manual install ? I don't know all the version of GitLab, but isn't the correct file name for these properties /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb ? - PierreF
I wrote wrong file name on the question, it is gitlab.rb - Saioa Perurena
In the docs, tells that you have to uncomment de jira lines directory into the gitlab.yml, but I haven't such lines, and when you run gitlab-ctl reconfigure this file is rewritten. - Saioa Perurena
I've installed gitlab with omnibus. - Saioa Perurena

If you use the following:

gitlab_rails['issues_tracker_jira'] = true
gitlab_rails['issues_tracker_jira_title'] = " Atlassian Jira"
gitlab_rails['issues_tracker_jira_project_url'] = "http://myjiraserver/jira/issues/?jql=project=:issues_tracker_id"
gitlab_rails['issues_tracker_jira_issues_url'] = "http://myjiraserver/jira/browse/:id"
gitlab_rails['issues_tracker_jira_new_issue_url'] = "http://myjiraserver/jira/secure/CreateIssue.jspa"

It should work; your first rule isn't formatted as gitlab expects it to be :) (add the rules and then 'gitlab-ctl reconfigure')
