Why does JIRA crash after Greenhopper plugin install

[Ray Scott]

I'm running JIRA 4.3, and installed the Greenhopper plugin via the Plugin Admin interface. I restarted JIRA fine, but when I click on any of the Greenhopper links in the left-side menu bar, for example "License Details", JIRA crashes displaying a Java stack trace in my browser window. Looks like it's a Spring bean issue. Below is the top of the stack trace:

We had the same issue with a JIRA instance on Contegix. I think for some reason, either updating versions and totally removing all old caches of the plugin we ended up getting it to work. I will have a look through my notes to see if I can remember anything specific

We just found out that if there are duplicate webwork actions (In this case LicenseAction) between two or more V2 plugins then you get this error. (Sometimes at random)

I would suggest disabling any third party plugins one at a time to identify which one.

Hello,

This really sounds like one for the support team. The only thing that comes to mind is an incompatible version of GreenHopper has been installed and that should not happen as you used the Plugin Admin interface. You may like to check that the GreenHopper version is 5.6.x which is JIRA 4.3 compatible.

Thank you.
