Hi,

I installed 8.5 Pro and installed Mylyn with JIRA connector. However, when I tried to add task repository in Task Repository view, there is not any connectors that I can select from. Clicking on button of “Install More Connectors…” and select JIRA, the installation failed and generated this message in Error Log:

Message: Problems occurred while performing installation: null

jimidom,

Sorry to hear you are running into this issue. Let me clarify that MyEclipse doesn’t provide any intrinsic support for Mylyn with Jira connector. Please refer – http://myeclipseide.com/module-htmlpages-display-pid-1.html
Can you answer few queries for me to get to the root cause –
1. How did you install ME 8.5? Using all-in-one installer / pulse / archived update site on top of eclipse classic 3.5.2?
2. Can you copy and paste your installation details here? Open MyEclipse IDE, from menu options click on MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation Details.
3. How did you add Mylyn? Can you share the weblink with me?
4. Can you open your .log file located at [your workspace dir]/.metadata/.log and copy and paste any relevant issues, if logged

1. How did you install ME 8.5? Using all-in-one installer / pulse / archived update site on top of eclipse classic 3.5.2?

I first installed 8.5 through Pulse and then from all-in-one. Both of them have the same issue.

2. Can you copy and paste your installation details here? Open MyEclipse IDE, from menu options click on MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation Details.

Mylyn was added from: MyEcllpse Configuration Center -> Quick-Add Popular Plug-ins -> Mylyn (w/related) -> Mylyn Bridge:Eclipse IDE, Java Development, Plug-in Development, Team Support, and MylynConnector: JIRA -> Apply Changes

jimidom,

Thank you for the details. I have verified with the dev team members, MyEclipse currently doesn’t support MyLyn. Please remove the said plugin from your ME profile.
I would recommend you to add a feature request to add mylyn to MyEclipse here – https://www.genuitec.com/forums/topics/myeclipse/feature-requests/
Sorry for the inconvenience.

I previously loaded Eclipse 3.5.1 “Classic” and used the MyEclipse 8.0 Archived Update Site zip file to setup my installation. To this I added the Mylyn 3.3 plugin because I rely on Mylyn for my daily tasks, both for a local repository and for Mantis.

I was considering upgrading, using Eclipse 3.5.2 “Classic” and using the 8.5 Archived Update Site zip file. Are you stating that I cannot use Mylyn at all with this 8.5 setup, as well as any of the ME 8.5 installations?

jimidom,

Thank you for the detailed explanation. I am able to reproduce this. I have filed a PR for the dev team members to investigate this issue. I shall get back to you on this.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

ernestz,

Sorry, I might have jumped the gun when I said that mylyn is not supported. MyEclipse doesn’t provide any intrinsic support for mylyn, having said that I was able to install mylyn on top of ME 8.5. As reported by jimidom, I could replicate the issue with mylyn jira connector. I have filed a PR and shall get back to you when I have more on this.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

jimidom,

There is an issue in Pulse which prevents installations via the Mylyn wizard. A Pulse fix is being pushed out, once applied you should be able to add the connector without issue. I will update this thread once the update goes live, that should be later today. Thanks for reporting this.

ernestz,

Should be no problem installing using the archived update site already. You can use the 8.5 update site and add Mylyn as before already with no issues.
