Troubleshooting
The guidelines below cover general cases where an Issue Tracker integration is not working and what may help to remedy it. For help with a specific tool, please refer to its documentation, or reach out to the SD Elements support team.
Cannot connect to the Issue Tracker server
- 
SD Elements can only connect to the Issue Tracker server through a proxy: - 
Configure the server to support the proxy. 
 
- 
- 
The Issue Tracker server is installed in a custom location - 
Configure the Context Root setting for the correct value. 
 
- 
HTTPS certificate validation fails
- 
Uncheck the Enforce Certificate Validation option. - 
This option should not be unchecked in production contexts. 
 
- 
- 
Install the signing certificate on the SD Elements server. 
- 
The organization rewrites the certificates used in SSL/TLS connections. - 
Add the organization signing CA certificate to the SD Elements server. 
 
- 
There is no access to the Issue Tracker server
- 
"No route to host" is a typical indication. - 
Work with support teams to facilitate a solution. 
- 
It may indicate a DNS or connectivity issue. 
 
- 
- 
A firewall or IPS may be blocking the traffic - 
Request an exemption for the traffic from the SD Elements server to the Issue Tracker server. 
- 
The connection is typically HTTPS, which uses TCP and port 443. 
 
- 
- 
Consider using the Remote Integration Agent if SD Elements cannot directly access the Issue Tracker server. 
Cannot create issue/task in Issue Tracker project
- 
The user doesn’t have sufficient permission to create issues - 
Update the permission of the user in the Issue Tracker. 
- 
Update the connector with a new username/password or token that has the needed permissions. 
 
- 
- 
Required fields are missing values - 
Update the Custom Field Mapping configuration with the required fields. 
 
- 
- 
The priority value is not set correctly - 
Update the Custom Priority Mapping configuration to match the project’s requirements. 
 
- 
- 
The Issue Type is incorrect - 
Confirm the type of issue in the sync configuration is valid for the Issue Tracker project. 
 
- 
Timeout
- 
The latency between SD Elements and the Issue Tracker server is too high - 
Investigate whether a proxy is slowing down the connection. 
- 
Extend the integration timeout from 10 minutes (default) to a larger amount. 
- 
Modify the Tasks to synchronize configuration so that fewer tasks are in scope for synchronization. 
 
- 
HTTP Errors
- 
Error 5xx (for example: "HTTP Error 500") - 
An unexpected error occured on the Issue Tracker server. Contact the Issue Tracker server support team for help. 
- 
An unexpected error may have occured on an upstream proxy (if applicable). Contact the proxy support team for help. 
 
- 
-

"HTTP Error 400": The version of the Issue Tracker may not be compatible. Reach out to SD Elements support about this issue. 
- 
"HTTP Error 401": The connection user is not valid or has an incorrect password.
