Make JIRA SOAP port, protocol configurable

[tysonstewart]

I'm trying to set this up and I keep getting command="jirasoap", <urlopen error [Errno 111] Connection refused>. I can log in using curl from that Splunk machine, so the only thing I can think of is that this app is not compatible with Jira 6.0.

Have you looked at your python.log? I was able to see the request it was making and could see it was not correct.

I noticed in my jira_soap.py the line: url = "http://%s:8080/rpc/soap/jirasoapservice-v2?wsdl" % hostname

was not going to work for my install. I made the change and I was able to get it to work.

Enthusiast, what's wrong with the URL, and what's the correct URL for you?

Thanks!

I had a couple of problems out of the "box". I think they can be attributed to my environment. I was getting the refusal constantly. I had to make the following changes for my environment. There seems to be a disconnect from jira_soap to the jira script in the way the configurations are loaded.

For jira_soap.py I had to change port to 8081 for my installation: url = "http://%s:8080/rpc/soap/jirasoapservice-v2?wsdl" % hostname

For jira.py I had to add the port 8081 in the call. url = "https://%s/sr/jira.issueviews:searchrequest-xml/temp/SearchRequest.xml?%s" % (hostname, query)

I should preface this all by that I do not own the JIRA environment. :)

Thanks enthusiast, I've changed the title of this issue, and I'll add some configuration for the port number. tysonstewart, let me know if this fix doesn't work for you!

@enthusiast Thanks for that! Our Jira server is internal and we don't use HTTPS, so I changed the scheme in jira.py, so the request is at least going through.

Now, however, when I try a JQL query, I get an "invalid expression" error. Stack trace:

I forgot about that one. I figured out that if you do not set time_keys it gets a empty list. Even when I added some it did not work.

I added a negating if statement and mine worked.

next line added

     if not time_keys:
        for k in time_keys:
           logger.info(k)
           v = elem.xpath(k)
           if len(v) == 1:
              row[k] = v[0].get("seconds")

@enthusiast Yep, that did it. Thanks!

I'm also looking into the JIRA 6.0 issue and I'll open a new issue for it
