Question

Using RallyConnectorforJira-Ruby-2.7.4 I’m trying to configure the connector to sync comments between Rally and JIRA as documented at http://www.rallydev.com/help/Jira-config-RallyJiraCommentLinker.pxml , but when I add the following to my jira_config.xml:

<RelatedObjectLinkers>
  <RallyJiraCommentLinker />
</RelatedObjectLinkers>

the connector dies immediately after startup with a “Related Object Linker could not find a class for RallyJiraCommentLinker” error (log contents below).

Is there something I’m doing wrong or is the RallyJiraCommentLinker no longer supported?

Thanks,

Andrew.

Answer 1

we actually introduced that very recently in the 2.8.1 version of the connector so it’s just not in the version you have. hope that helps.
