Can't locate the ApplicationLinkService component

[Damon Osgood]

I am working on a Jira Plugin (Java), which needs to communicate with a linked Confluence application. I am developing against the atlas-* toolset.

In my plugin, I have this code to get the ApplicationLinkService, and then the link to Confluence:

ApplicationLinkService service = ComponentLocator.getComponent(ApplicationLinkService.class);

ApplicationLink link = service.getPrimaryApplicationLink(ConfluenceApplicationType.class);

This was working fine until recently. Today, the ComponentLocator.getComponent() call is returning null.

The applications are still linked correctly as far as I can tell from the Admin GUI. I've tried deleting and recreating the link, to no avail.

I've tried rolling back changes I've made recently, also to no avail. But it's possible I'm missing something.

It seems bizarre to me that it's the ApplicationLinkService itself that I can't find! How is that even possible?

Anyone have any idea how I could have gotten into this mess?
