Application link - Uncaught exception thrown by REST service: null

[Nico Mueller]

Confluence version: 5.6.5
JIRA version: v6.3.13

I setup confluence and JIRA locally and since days I cant figure out how to get the applications linked. 

When I create an application link for JIRA in confluence, this works. It is shown in confluence under applications links and in JIRA. In JIRA I can see the last confluence actions on the startsite but sadly when i try to create a JIRA issue via Insert when creating a confluence page the following happens:

I see "Received the following HTTP error code from the server:500".
and the error below in the confluence log. I tried the solution of https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CONFKB/NullPointerException+When+Trying+to+Configure+Application+links 

and even reinstalling both, confluence and JIRa does not solve the problem. I tried it with a new postgresql database but i just cant get it working. What am I doing wrong?

Many thanks for your help
Nico

The remote API must be enabled in JIRA (Accept remote API calls parameter in General Configuration) in order to link applications with JIRA

Did you enable this?

That was it!  

I cant thank you enough, this cost me several nights! Somehow I seem to have overlooked that setting

Just hit by this issue in my new confluence.  Working with support guy who is staying at surface and won't escalate or get some help internally.  Any help in resolving will be appreciated.

Hello,

I have the same issue in JIRA 7.2. however Accept remote API calls is by default enabled in JIRA 7.x version and the option is also not available.

What could be the reason for this ?

Did you find any solution?

Is there any other way i can report this beside opening a bug report?

I am sure this is an easy thing to fix - should I raise a ticket? Thought this could have been a common problem.
