Stash + JIRA On demand = disaster

Question

I cant seem to have these two work together. When i click the tab "Source" an a JIRA item i get

"Server Stash  requires authentication. Login and approve to view source."

and when i click there i get:

"Authentication failed! An error occurred while trying to obtain an access token. For application link "Stash (2f2233a8-5c4d-3a9c-a008-29050b2bc2fb) https://stash.thousandeyes.com com.atlassian.applinks.application.stash.StashApplicationTypeImpl@b36308"

I set up all the app links. This is really bad.

Hi Ricardo,

I'll follow up with support to work this out. Can you point me at the support request for this? Although we haven't announced official support for Stash in OnDemand yet, it should be working already.

Feel free to forward me the details directly to jens at atlassian.com.

Cheers,
Jens

Hi Ricardo,

Yes - you will need to create an application link (with OAuth authentication enabled) from Stash to JIRA as well.

To create the link in both directions, it may be simplest to delete the existing application link from JIRA to Stash and create a new one, making sure to check the Also create a link from '<name of your JIRA server>' back to this server checkbox on the second page of the wizard. Finally (on the third page of the wizard) make sure you specify that you have separate userbases. This will ensure that OAuth authentication is set up between the two servers.

Provided you have your proxy correctly configured it should pose no problem to integration. See https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/STASH/Integrating+Stash+with+Apache+HTTP+Server for more details.

Our troubleshooting guide may also be of assistance: https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/STASHKB/Troubleshooting+JIRA+Integration

That said, I'm sure our support engineers have been in touch already and sorted this out :)  but this may help future readers.

cheers,

Tim
