How do I debug Bamboo/Bitbucket Cloud connection problems?

Dan Rumney_qed3hg

I'm trying to create a Bitbucket Cloud repository in my Bamboo instance, but I keep getting connection errors (specifically, 403s, when I try to load repos).

I know that the username and password is correct, because I have scrupulously tested this aspect of it.

I do see that I'm getting `XSRF check failed` back from the Bitbucket Cloud... why?

Is there a way to get any deep insight into the problem at hand so that i can resolve it?

Hi Dan,

 

Thank you for reaching out to us. I understand that you are getting an XSRF error when adding a Bitbucket Cloud repository.

When Bamboo retrieves the repositories on Bitbucket Cloud, it calls an endpoint on the Bamboo API first. In general, the source of the XSRF errors is Bamboo's Tomcat server not being configured for the correct URLs.

This can often be related to reverse proxies. Please check

<bamboo-install>/conf/server.xml

and add the following (replacing the placeholders as needed) to the first (uncommented) Connector in that file:

<!-- add this if the port you access Bamboo on is not 8085 -->
proxyPort=yyyy
<!-- add this if the URL you access Bamboo on is not its hostname -->
proxyName=mydomain.com
<!-- add the following if using https -->
secure=true
scheme=https

Once that has been added, please restart Bamboo for the changes to take effect.

Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any other questions.

Cheers,
Elias | Bamboo Support
