Issue/Introduction

When trying to move a Jira item from one project to another through ConnectALL, Jira throws an error as follows:

ERROR YYYY-MM-dd hh:mm:ss,zzz [########## | <automationName> | <pollId> | ############ | {<groupName>}][(connectall-flows) thread #### - JmsConsumer[writeQ]] com.go2group.connectall.model.transformer.model.api.UpdateDestinationTransformer: [Create/Update] Error while connecting to server https://jira.example.com
org.json.JSONException: A JSONObject text must begin with '{' at 1 [character 2 line 1]

Cause

If the following ConnectALL properties are configured but the Jira plugin itself is not installed it will cause this error

Name
Value
jira.customized.rest.url
/rest/jirarestservice/1.0
jira.handshake.enabled
true
jira.comment.plugin.enabled
true

 

Resolution
