Jira Plugin PostFunction cannot be built or installed in Jira

[ramzi]

I am using

Windows 10 Pro

Atlassian SDK version 8.0.16 with maven 3.5.4

Intellij idea standard edition 2020.3.2, i configured it to use maven from Atlassian

I created a jira plugin with a PostFunction module but when i try to build it with atlas-package or install it in Jira i get this error.

Output from Surefire dump:

Please help,

thanks in advance.

I don't know the reason why but after recreating the plugin i could build it successfully with atlas-package. however it still fails to get installed in the jira instance and the atlassian-jira.log shows the following error:

when i try to install the plugin atlassian-jia.log prints this error :

any idea why this happens or how to solve it ?

Hi @ramzi , 

Did you try it the build your app? 

atlas-mvn clean package

And if it's ok, please share your pom.xml

Because your error show exact error between classloader and your class.

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/company/jira/workflow/MyPostFunction

Hello @Gonchik Tsymzhitov 

thanks for your answer,

I added my pom.xml in my first post.

I could clean the plugin using atlas-clean but this did not solve the problem.

running atlas-mvn clean returns
