Problem creating subtask within a script

[Andreas Sumper]

Hi all!

I also posted this on stackoverflow, but did not get any answer. Hopefully someone here can help me with my problem. I had this script running, but tried to remove deprecated functions. I removed almost all of them, but I am stuck on this code.

I am working on some groovy-scripts in jira. The script get´s triggered as a postfunction using the scriptrunner plugin. The code, that produces the error is this one:

ComponentAccessor CompAcc = new ComponentAccessor() 
SubTaskManager subTaskManager = CompAcc.getSubTaskManager() 
... 
def subTask = issueManager.createIssue(CompAcc.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getLoggedInUser(), issueObject) 
subTaskManager.createSubTaskIssueLink(issue, subTask, usera)

where issue is the issue, on which the postfunction was triggered. The subtask get´s created but not linked to the calling task.

And this is the error:

2016-01-11 11:39:39,925 http-bio-8063-exec-19 ERROR asu 699x3972x1 16m4yz4 10.1.21.129 /secure/CommentAssignIssue.jspa [scriptrunner.jira.workflow.ScriptWorkflowFunction] ************************************************************************************* 
2016-01-11 11:39:39,926 http-bio-8063-exec-19 ERROR asu 699x3972x1 16m4yz4 10.1.21.129 /secure/CommentAssignIssue.jspa [scriptrunner.jira.workflow.ScriptWorkflowFunction] Script function failed on issue: RQA-7338, actionId: 81, file: /home/qa/Tools/Jira/scripts/CreateDevTestExecutionSubtask.groovy groovy.lang.MissingMethodException: No signature of method: com.atlassian.jira.config.DefaultSubTaskManager.createSubTaskIssueLink() is applicable for argument types: (com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueImpl, com.atlassian.jira.ofbiz.IssueGenericValue, com.atlassian.jira.user.DelegatingApplicationUser) values: [RQA-7338, [timespent:null, timeoriginalestimate:7200, project:11400, ...], ...] Possible solutions: createSubTaskIssueLink(com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue, com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue, com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User), createSubTaskIssueLink(org.ofbiz.core.entity.GenericValue, org.ofbiz.core.entity.GenericValue, com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.User) at CreateDevTestExecutionSubtask.run(CreateDevTestExecutionSubtask.groovy:212)

So what I need to know, is how I can convert com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueImpl andcom.atlassian.jira.ofbiz.IssueGenericValue to com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue so that the linking of the subtask works again. Or someone can help me to explain, how I have to use the missing function.

Thanks for any help!

I've read about the limit of projects in: https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA063/Database+limitations+on+number+of+projects

Yes, I think so. Not this year but in the next 2 years could be

Interesting, I've not run into that before.   It looks like the issue has been fixed though.  Do you think you'll get to 1,000 projects?

You'll never reach the technical limit before your admins tell you "we can't cope with the number of projects". 

I'm curious as to where you read this.
