Hi,
I've just received the evaluation license key. Thanks.
However, when I click on the "Planning Board" menu item, I receive the following error msg:

Ok. Solved my own mistakes:
The action uses the base url as declared in the admin section.
And my test instance is copy of the production configuration working on the localhost (of course).
Simply changed Base url to localhost and it's working fine.

I just installed the greenhopper-plugin-1.0 in our JIRA 3.7.4 instance. The Planning Board and Task Board seem to work fine but when I click on the Chart Board, I get a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/jfree/chart/labels/XYItemLabelGenerator at com.pyxis.greenhopper.jira.actions.ChartBoardAction.getBurndownLocation(ChartBoardAction.java:35). Seems I'm missing a jfree charts package. Where can I get it and how do I install it?

Hi Holger,
You are right. Atlassian upgraded its jfreechart libraries since version 3.9.
One thing you can do is to upgrade the libraries in your JIRA_HOME/WEB-INF/lib
The version that GreenHopper (and JIRA-3.9 + ) uses is
jcommon-1.0.8 (tar.gz or zip) unzip it and replace jcommon-1.0.0-pre2 with jcommon-1.0.8
jfreechart-1.0.4 (tar.gz or zip) unzip it and replace jfreechart-1.0.0-pre2 with jfreechart-1.0.4
If you are using other chart plugins Backup your old libraries. just in case. This upgrade shouldn't break anything.
Sorry for the inconvenience, I will post something on the GreenHopper page.

Hi JC,
Thanks for the quick reply. Unfortunately I do use Charting & Reporting Plugin Version 1.3.4 and Laughing Panda 0.2-SNAPSHOT-2. The new libs seem to break one or both of these.

I did a quick fix to support jfreechart.1.0.0-pre2, now it will only be available in the next release some time next week. This way you wont have to upgrade your libs and therefore break your other chart-plugins.

JC,
Like Holger, we're using Jira 3.7.4 and evaluating GreenHopper. I upgraded jcommon and jfreechart and the charting in GreenHopper seems to work now.
The problem I'm having is that it doesn't always save the configuration settings (especially mapping our workflow states to task board states) that we make. The page says these changes will be saved automatically -- no button to submit changes to the configuration.
Is there something I'm missing that would cause GreenHopper to save these mappings reliably?

Hi Rich,
If you are evaluating GreenHopper, I strongly suggest you to try out the 1.2 that you can find here: http://www.greenpeppersoftware.com/confluence/display/GH
This release fixes the problem with the jfreechart's libraries so you don't have to override the existing ones, and it offers you a lot more features.

Just tried out the evaluation copy - one thing that has put me off straight away is it doesn't pick up my jira colour scheme or banner image. Instead it's all green and has a GreenHopper logo image. The change between greenhopper colour scheme and the jira one is very jarring, and while I appreciate your want your own greenhopper branding, if I pay for it I expect to have my own branding!
Is this a feature of the evaluation version or does it simply not honour the jira colours or logos?

Hi Colin,
You should find in the planning board configuration an option to switch from GreenHopper color scheme to your own configured JIRA color scheme. It's a Project configuration for now, so you will need to set it up for each project.
I hope this answers your concern.

Is there a feature in this plugin to plan, estimate, and track time against a defined period of time (Sprint)? If we were to have a 30-day sprint, there isn't necessarily a release, but work to be done that we would commit to over those 30 days. Is this functionality built in, or is there a way to imitate this kind of functionality?

Hi Daniel,
I am not sure that understand your question properly but the main goals of GreenHopper is to facilitate version planning (Versions, sprints, releases ...). GreenHopper gives you a global overview of your unreleased versions so you can manage, plan properly your versions. I encourage you to check the website documentation and even try it out. You will be up and running in less then 2 minutes and there is almost no learning curves.
If you have more questions or need me to assist you in your evaluation please feel free to contact me directly.
We also have a forum where you might find answers to your questions.

I just installed jira standard 3.12.1 standalone, and then downloaded greenhopper-plugin-2.0-jira310. I put the jira-greenhopper-plugin-2.0-jira310-complete.jar file into my atlassian-jira/WEB-INF/lib folder. after restarting JIRA, I see the "Planning Board" and "Task Board" menu items, but clicking them gives me:

HTTP Status 404 - Could not execute action [TaskBoard]:Action 'TaskBoard' not found or could not be initialized: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException

Actually I dont think your post functions are triggering this message.
I think it is more due to your workflow screens that ask for a required field to be entered.
Even tough you have a default value, GreenHopper cannot take for granted that the value is good so it will prompt you with this message. It should be able to handle these required fields very soon thought since the transition screens are planned in the next release. In the meantime if you dont want this message dont make your field as reuired
