What's wrong in my "Clones an issue and links" script post function?

[Tsol]

Hi everybody,

i'm using "Clones an issue and links" post function of Groovyrunner plugin for an HR project. When i'm creating an issue i want at the same to create a number of related issues in different projects. A sample of the code i'm using is

issue.assigneeId = "vkri"
def cf = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName('Starting Date')
val = issue.getCustomFieldValue(cf) - 1
issue.setDueDate(val)
def job = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName('Job Title')
def nen = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName('New Employee name')
jt = 'Set up workstation for new employee (' + issue.getCustomFieldValue(nen) + '). The workstation must suit the needs of the jod title which is: ' + issue.getCustomFieldValue(job)
sm = 'Set up workstation for new employee: ' + issue.getCustomFieldValue(nen)
issue.setSummary(sm)
issue.setDescription(jt)

The problem is that i'm getting the following error:

I'm sure that i'm giving all the necessary values.

Is there any mistake on the code?

Thanx in advance

[Igor Loskutov · Accepted solution]

I faced with this issue myself today. Problem was in this part of exception :

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
    at com.atlassian.jira.issue.customfields.impl.AbstractSingleFieldType.getDefaultValue(AbstractSingleFieldType.java:149)
    at com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomFieldImpl.getDefaultValue(CustomFieldImpl.java:1048)

Inside rank Jira API bowels it trying to fetch customfield configuration by issue type but fails because custom issue configuration scheme restrictions. Making correct config in custom field configuration scheme work for me.

[Tsol]

Hey Igor,

you were right. ;)

The custom fields that i was getting the value of, weren't configured to apply to the target projects. I have changed the field configuration and now works.

Thanks,

Kostas

[Luca Andreatta]

Try first in the script runner under Plugins > Other - Script Runner.

Try this:

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager

issue = ComponentManager.getInstance().getIssueManager().getIssueObject("ISSUE_KEY") // issue di test

def cf = ComponentManager.getInstance().getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("Starting Date")
def value = issue.getCustomFieldValue(cf)
log.error(value) // to print it in catalina.out

[Tsol]

Hi Luca,

i have run the script you have posted.

The result is: no return value.

From catalina.out i have the following:

2012-07-24 15:08:29,941 http-8080-3 ERROR tsol 908x93031x1 178ej1v 10.0.8.115,10.0.8.55 /secure/admin/groovy/GroovyRunner.jspa [onresolve.jira.groovy.GroovyRunner] 2012-07-31 00:00:00.0

[JamieA]

So that shows you that the script is working at least up to line 7, if 2012-07-31 00:00:00.0 is actually the value of the Starting Date custom field. Continue onwards adding debug lines.

It looks to be the same problem you had before, ie: CustomFieldImpl.getDefaultValue(...) (which is near the end of your stack trace). Can you check if there is a default value for any of your date field? Perhaps some bogus string or something.

[Tsol]

Hi,

i tried the following code in the script runner:

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager 
issue = ComponentManager.getInstance().getIssueManager().getIssueObject("TST-1475") // issue di test
log.error(issue) 
def cf = ComponentManager.getInstance().getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("Starting Date")
log.error(cf)
def value = issue.getCustomFieldValue(cf)
log.error(value) // to print it in catalina.out

and i got the following results in catalina.out:

2012-07-25 14:24:44,845 http-8080-2 ERROR tsol 864x108866x1 1r19tb1 10.0.8.115,10.0.8.55 /secure/admin/groovy/GroovyRunner.jspa [onresolve.jira.groovy.GroovyRunner] TST-1475

I have checked that the date custom field doesn't have a default value, but when i'm using it in the post function i'm still getting a null pointer exception.

I've also created a unique context for the custon field, but the problem is stil there.

[Luca Andreatta]

Hi,

have you tried to print some log?

I think the problem could be getting the custom field, try this sample:

issue.assigneeId = "vkri"
def cf = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName('Starting Date')
val = issue.getCustomFieldValue(cf)
log.error(val)

[Tsol]

I've tried that but seems that the code breaks at line 3. Everything under line 2 is not executed. I have also use the custom field initializing validator indeed custom field is not initialized. Do u have any idea hot to initialize the cf.

Thanx in advance for the help,

Kostas

[Luca Andreatta]

You haven't instantiated the object customfieldManager, try to replace it with ComponentManager.getInstance().getCustomFieldManager() If you get an error sayng that it could not find ComponentManager, add it in the first line with this: import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager

[Luca Andreatta]

Hi Kostas,

where are you putting that script?

The script 'Clones an issue and links' has two input field, one for the condition, where I think you have to return a boolean, and one called 'Additional issue actions'.

I never used that script, but you have to find what objects can be used, to do this you can use log for the suspected items like, for example issue and customFieldManager.

Try to put this:

log.error(issue)
log.error(customFieldManager)

[Tsol]

Hi Luca,

I'm using the script in 'Additional Issue Actions'

when i use the

log.error(issue) i got the following:

2012-08-08 18:36:22,654 http-8080-4 ERROR tsol 1116x255948x1 g4x17q 10.0.8.115,10.0.8.55 /secure/admin/groovy/GroovyRunner.jspa [onresolve.jira.groovy.GroovyRunner] TST-1487

when i use the

log.error(customFieldManager) i got the following error:

[Luca Andreatta]

Hi Kostas,

of what custom field are you talking?

I assume that it isn't 'Starting Date', try to use the script that I gave you with the field that is causing the problem to circumscribe it and look at the log.

[Tsol]

Hi Luca,

i'm talking about the 'Starting Date' custom field.

Honestly i don't know what's up.

In script runner when i use your code, returns me the real value.

So far so good.

After that i'm using the following code in clone and issue post function

issue.assigneeId = "testuser"
def cf = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName('Starting Date')
val = issue.getCustomFieldValue(cf)
issue.setDueDate(val)

And i'm getting a Null pointer Exception

[Luca Andreatta]

Are you sure that the nullpointer is in that field?

Try to rebuild your original script in script runner and log every object that could be null to discover what is the problem.

[Tsol]

Hi,

i've used the custom field isn't initialized validator. And the result is that this custom field isn't initialized although i'm giving a value.

The problem is that i can't find a way to initilize the field.

Cheers,

Kostas
