JIRA issues and Bamboo builds

Question

We are in the process of integrating Bamboo with our JIRA instance.

As we are still working on getting Bamboo up and running and with a stable build process sometimes builds fail and require re-running the failed jobs.

I noticed that issues that are linked to a build that needed retries in order to pass still show in the Development section an indication that the issue has a failed build. This also shows up as a warning in the version summary page.

How can we resolve this?

Hi @David,

You should be able to click on the warning label and a pop-up will display what failed builds it is referencing.

I imagine that it probably is still referencing the previous build if it's still showing an error.

Hi Jimmy,

Thanks for your answer.

That's what I thought so at first but after I was able to rerun both the trunk and branch builds successfully it still shows the indication that there were failed builds.

Could it still be referencing previous builds that failed, even though the latest build passes?

Hi @David,

Based on the screenshots it looks like you have two different build plans.  One that is passing, and one that has failed.  If you want those errors to go away you will need to run a build of the plan that has failed to make it successful.

Based on what it looks like it appears as if the main plan branch (possibly master) has a failure which is linked to Jira issue ids and you have another branch that is passing.  If that is true you probably need to merge the changes in the passing branch to the main/master branch so a new build will run and show successful results for both branches.

I hope that helps!
