Excel Connector for JIRA plugin error when login to JIRA

Sa Qiao April 14, 2014

I have a problem when using Excel Connector for JIRA plugin.

After completing the installation, when I log in, Excel displays the following error message:

2014/4/15 15:06:15 Connecting to JIRA at http://***.com as*** .
2014/4/15 15:06:20 Connected to JIRA successfully.
2014/4/15 15:06:22 ERROR: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
2014/4/15 15:06:22    at Excel2JIRA.ExcelPopulator.RefreshSheetNew()
   at Excel2JIRA.RefreshWindow.RefreshWindow_Shown(Object sender, EventArgs e)

I've tested two JIRA instances, and try to use Excel2007 and Excel2010, it always appears above error.

I have installed VSTOR 4 and set Accept remote API calls to ON, is there any clues to resolve my problem?

Did you generate Excel sheet from JIRA and open it before login?
