[hudson-dev] Job failure for Jira

[Vishal chugh <er.chughvishal@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Steve,

Sorry to disturb you .

We have upgraded Hudson from 2.2.1 to 3.0.0 and upgrade has gone fine with new plugins released by you . 

Jobs have been quite stable from 4-5 days but suddenly 2-3 jobs have started breaking for Jira  , as below :

Can you please advise for above error .

When i checked our installed plugins for Jira : We have
a) Hudson JIRA plugin (1.36-h-1) : Integrates Hudson to JIRA 
b) Hudson Jira Plugin ( 3.2.0) : This plugin features a Job property, Issue indexer and a new REST API to integration Hudson with Portlets and Tab
	Panels of Atlassian Jira.

Not sure , if plugin (b) above is causing above issue . Seems this plugin is not supported anymore ( specially for Hudson 3.0.0 )  from quite a long time .

Thanks,
Vishal Chugh
