Error updating Jira issues

[Chanda Unmack]

Hello all,

 

Having a bit of trouble with the Release Helper Plugin with trying to update Jira issues. I had this working briefly, but then it seemed to go sideways when we changed the Jenkins server. The version of Jenkins is the same, 2.46.1, as is the plugin v 1.3, the only main difference is the underlying OS of the server, Ubuntu -> RHEL.

 

We’re trying to update the issue using the “Extract ticket keys from the commit messages of the pull request” with the following regex:

'(?<key>[A-Z0-9]{1,10}-[0-9]+)'

 

This had worked previously, but now it fails the build with this:

 

ERROR: Build step failed with exception

RestClientException{statusCode=Optional.of(400), errorCollections=[ErrorCollection{status=400, errors={}, errorMessages=[Error in the JQL Query: Expecting a field name but got 'null'. You must surround 'null' in quotation marks to use it as a field name. (line 1, character 2)]}]}

…

 

Any pointers would be appreciated as the page for the plugin is nice, but this section is a bit light. Our builds are triggered by the GitHub Pull Request Builder Plugin (v 1.35.0) and we have a hook which requires the commit message to have the Jira id as the first line of the message.

 

Thanks,
