Unexpected status code during login: 500 in Eclipse

[Michael Gatto]

I'm setting up the latest Atlassian Connector for Eclipse. When I click "Validate Settings" I get "Unexpected status code during login: 500 in Eclipse". I've enabled follow redirects and disabled it; it doesn't help. The Jira installation is up and running fine for web browsers.

We're running Jira 4.3.4

Hi Michael, we updated to JIRA 5.1.4, enabled "Accept remote API calls" and I was successfully able to pull JIRA issues into eclipse using the mylyn plugin.

Thanks. I saw this in my error log:

I read in a post somewhere (I can't find the link off-hand) that this may be resolved in JIRA 5.x. I'm planning to upgrade to 5.x anyway so I'll check if the Atlassian plugin for eclipse works with this version of JIRA.

No, I dropped it due to lack of time in having to deal with it for now.

Michael, I'm experiencing the same issue. Did you happen to resolve this issue offline?

I'm running JIRA 4.4.3
