Symptoms

The following appears in the fisheye-debug-<DATE>.log when trying to create a review using the Smart Commit functionality:

2012-10-30 09:36:04,031 WARN  - Unable to determine author for changeset 11428 in repository <REPO_NAME> - no review will be created or updated

Cause

There are two possible causes for this:

  1. This happens because the User who made the commit against the Repository is not the same as the FishEye/Crucible.
  2. Committer matches two users with the same mail address. 

Resolution

Resolution #1: Set up the User Mapping for the Repository:
  1. Go to User Settings > User Mapping

  2. Click on the {{Repository}} and click on Add Button

  3. Choose the Commiter Name and the FishEye/Crucible User that the commits belong to

  4. Try toCommit again using the +review command
Resolution #2: Apply the suggested workaround from the above bug report.
