Subtasks are not created for new fix version

[Georgiy Senenkov]

Hello,

We run groovy post function script which should create sub-task when new fix version is created or new bus is cretaed. It worked fine on JIRA4.3 installation and now JIRA is updated to 5.0. Script was modified a little bit and now subtask is created when new issue is created (even some errors can be found in the log), but adding new fix version does not create new sub task. The errors in the log are (the full log is attached (fixversion_added.log) )

        }
        ImportUtils.indexIssues = wasIndexing
    }

}

creator = new createBranchFixSubTasks()
creator.processIssue(issue)

could you please tell what might be wrong here?

Thank you in advance.

Cheers, Georgiy

It's telling you what's wrong I think... "log" is not defined. That variable should be available in the script, but it won't be in the class that you defined in the script.

So you can pass it in in a constructor for the "createBranch..." class, or add to the inner class:

Category log = Category.getInstance(createBranchFixSubTasks.class)

(import import org.apache.log4j.Category).

BTW I'm not aware of anything in this area that would have broken between 4 and 5 - are you sure you didn't refactor the script?

[Georgiy Senenkov]

Thank you for pointing me that "log" causes the problem.

As the "log" is used for debuging purpose only then I solved this problem by removing all lines with "log.warn" and problem disappeared.

The script was refactored because original one stopped working since we switched form JIRA4.3 to JIRA5.0

[JamieA]

Yes, I guess it was "com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User user".

If you had just used "def user", ie dynamic not static typing it would have worked in 4.3 and 5.0.
