Description Paul Collins

2011-11-02 14:37:22 EDT

For Bugzilla 4.0.2, using the xmlrpc.cgi interface for a custom workflow I get a "java.lang.Double cannot be cast to java.lang.String" when updating the repository config.
If uncheck the "Use xmlrpc.cgi" setting and update the repository config it works fine (but is obviously missing my customized workflow).

The related line that's causing the crash appears to be related to the defaultMilestone, which is disabled on my bugzilla server. Enabling "usetargetmilestone" in Bugzilla did not resolve the issue for Mylyn.

Frank, I think you had a fix for this already?

Yes I know this problem this is part of an other patch.

You get this if you have an milestone like 1.0 with the xmlrpc this is returned as an double and Not as an string

Try to extract this later today from the other patch

Great! We should backport this fix for 3.6.4.

Ah! So the quick workaround for now is just to take any milestone like that and convert it to something that doesn't look like a double. I updated my bugzilla settings refreshed mylyn with the xmlrpc.cgi enabled and I have my custom workflows now! Glad there's a patch for it but thanks for the workaround :)
