500 Error Code is thrown in the "Manage Application Link" page
Summary
When trying to push changes to Salesforce or pull changes to Jira through the "Manage Application Link", a 500 error code is thrown:
Environment
Jira Server
Diagnostics Steps
Users will not be able to create Jira issues from within Salesforce:
Cause
The Remote System Reference field is a field that the Connector uses to hold all the associations.
When launching the Wizard the user can configure it to automatically create and associate the field with all Jira screens. The user can also create the field manually and associate it with Jira screens by selecting No to the Would you like to automatically associate the field with all screens? option.
However if the user fails to create the Remote System Reference, a 500 error code would be thrown in the Manage Application Link page.
Workaround
N/A
Resolution
Configure the Connector to automatically create the Remote System Reference field by selecting Yes to the Would you like to automatically associate the field with all screens? option.
