Trying to import issues using Jelly but receive an error..

[Gary Pinkham]

Trying to import some issues that I extracted from Redmine using a Jelly Script.. It fails with this exception..

Error: <JiraJelly xmlns:jira="jelly:com.atlassian.jira.jelly.JiraTagLib">
Exception: org.apache.commons.jelly.JellyTagException: file:/home/gpinkham/rubymine_workspace/migrate-redmine-to-jira/redmine_dump.jelly:23:0: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
java.io.PrintWriter@33d2953d

the line in question is:

<jira:CreateIssue summary="upsell tracking" priority="Minor" created="2010-06-09 09:40 PM" versions="" updated="2010-10-19 06:20 PM" fixVersions="" description="Imported from Redmine issue #1

Need to track upsell clicks in reports.

Since the upsell action happens much earlier than the add to cart, we need to:

1. Change upsell links to go through the upsell controller, which will record the (upsell_id, product_type, product_id) in the session then redirect to the
appropriate target url.

Best to do 

  sessions[[product_type, product_id]] = upsell_id

Yes, the key is an array.


2. Add column line_items.upsell_id, default null

3. When an item is added to the cart, set

   line_items.upsell_id = sessions[[product_type, product_id]]

4. Update any reports in db/reports that reference line_items to include the upsells_table and add the upsells.id and upsells.headline columns to the report." issueIdVar="issue_id" assignee="" issueKeyVar="issue_key_1" reporter="admin" issueType="New Feature" duplicateSummary="ignore" duedate=""/>

any thoughts on what might be wrong? the error message isn't really telling me much..

thanks!

<Edit to add some more details>

for the record my file is like this:

Hi Gary,

I see three issues that can possibly be the root cause:

1. The project-key attribute is a required field.Can you try to add it

2. Ensure that the closing tag ends with </jira:CreateIssue> NOT />

3. For the purpose of troubleshoot, can you please remove all the date tags and see if the issue is created?

I will try the project key.. as for issue_key.. I forked another project on github to get the initial redmine to jelly script. . they had that in there. I assumed it was a jelly/jira thing..

Hello Gary,
Im not entirely familiar with jelly, but I think I can point out some things that you can try:
1. You do not have a Project-Key tag. (You need it for issues to be created in that project)

2. For created and updated field, your date-time format should be the following: yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss.0

3. Also, can you tell us what issue_key_1 and issue_id represents? Maybe you made some errors here as well.

it was the project key.. I guess I thought by including the issue inside the create project tag that it didn't need the project key.. Thanks to you both!
