TFS check-ins synchronization (TFS4JIRA JIRA Plugin)

Error in JIRA UPM that says "The JIRA server was contacted but has returned an error response."

This error sometimes happens after updating UPM. Please try the following:

  • Stop JIRA
  • Make sure the JAR file with TFS4JIRA plugin has been removed from $JIRA_HOME/plugins/installed-plugins
  • Start JIRA
  • Install TFS4JIRA plugin again

I don't have "TFS Check-ins" tab at all on issue view

...

  • View collection-level information for the selected collection. Lack of this permission usually manifests as error message when running TFS connection test, although sometimes it's not the case (the test passes, but TFS quietly returns no results). How to set the permission:

    • Visual Studio 2010/2012: Team -> Team Project Collection Settings -> Security

  • Read permission for the selected folder. How to set the permission:
    • Visual Studio 2010: View -> Other Windows -> Source Control Explorer -> Right click on the folder -> Properties ->  Security
    • Visual Studio 2012: View -> Other Windows -> Source Control Explorer -> Right click on the folder -> Advanced -> Security

Also, please verify that your TFS4JIRA plugin version is 1.7.5 or newer as previous versions contained a critical bug.

TFS4JIRA Synchronizer installation

...

You need to run following command in console: %windir%\system32\inetsrv\appcmd unlock config -section:system.webServer/modules

TFS4JIRA Synchronizer installer finished without any complaints but I get "HTTP 500" error on static files (*.js, *.css) when I navigate to the application site.

...

Not all of the values from TFS are visible on the mappings screen (for example only subset of State fields can be chosen).

Remove folder <synchronizer_path>\App_Data\TFSClientCache and check again if all of the TFS values are on the list now.

I want to synchronize only JIRA Issues/TFS Work Items of some types and ignore other items.
