JIRA SuggestImate throwing exception | java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to load User class.

[Gavad Khan (PS)]

Our JIRA instance is continuously throwing below Suggestimate exception. There is no impact on Suggestimate functionalities, all are working fine but in parallel we are facing intermittent login issue in JIRA application. It might be a case that this exception has relation with JIRA login issue. Instance details are as below:

JIRA Version: 5.0.3 (Commercial License)

Suggestimate plug-in version: 2.1.0 (Commercial License)

Please answer my following queries:

1. Why this exception is coming? Is there are any plug-in compatibility issue? How we can resolve this exception issue?

2. Is Suggestimate plugin has any dependency on JIRA user management? If yes then why?

Hi Gavad,

There was a bug in SuggestiMate 2.1.0 on JIRA 5 which was later fixed in version 2.1.1.

Could you please download and install the latest version (which is now 2.1.2) via UPM or from our website

(http://www.plugenta.com/suggestimate/jira/download.html) which will resolve the issue?

Please let me know if everything is OK once you do it.

Sorry for the inconveniences.
