Description

« Hide

The following line contained in the jira-client.pl returns a NULL result to variable result.
"$result = $s->call("commitacc.acceptCommit", $jiraLogin, $jiraPassword, $committer, $commitMessage)->result();"

The fn itself seems to be executed sucessfully as the calls inside the eval statement do not throw an exception. However the value of $result after the call is uninitialised.

The JIRA server logs give no indication of any error.
The .../logs/catalina.out doesn't record any errors or warnings.
The .../logs/access log simply record the http POST request ->
"192.168.25.10 - - [21/Jun/2007:15:09:53 +0100] "POST /rpc/xmlrpc HTTP/1.1" 200 429 0.002"

Can you give us more details on this? What are the values of the arguments you pass to the evaluator service?

We are also affected by the issue. It turns out that the issue was "unassigned" and we require the issue to be assigned to the developer. The server returned null in this case. No error was logged on the server.

I made the following changed to the perl script as a workaround till the server side is fixed.

This was caused by wrong exception handling in the serverside: a NullPointerException was caught, but not logged.
This has been fixed in 1.2.
