Description
Global actions were re-introduced into JIRA in the JIRA 6.4 release. See JRA-36498
When you attempt to import this workflow into any JIRA before this, you receive the following errors:
/rest/workflowDesigner/latest/workflows [plugins.workflowdesigner.layout.WorkflowLayoutsImpl] Error serializing workflow layout for workflow EXS Default Workflow, draft = false com.atlassian.jira.plugins.workflowdesigner.layout.LayoutSerializationException: org.codehaus.jackson.map.exc.UnrecognizedPropertyException: Unrecognized field "loopedTransitionContainer" (Class com.atlassian.jira.plugins.workflowdesigner.layout.Layout), not marked as ignorable at [Source: java.io.StringReader@525d0cab; line: 1, column: 2363] (through reference chain: com.atlassian.jira.plugins.workflowdesigner.layout.Layout["loopedTransitionContainer"]) at com.atlassian.jira.plugins.workflowdesigner.utilities.JsonSerializer.deserialize(JsonSerializer.java:37) at com.atlassian.jira.plugins.workflowdesigner.layout.LayoutSerializerImpl.deserializeFromJson(LayoutSerializerImpl.java:30) at com.sysbliss.jira.plugins.workflow.manager.WorkflowLayoutManagerImpl.getLayout(WorkflowLayoutManagerImpl.java:108) at com.sysbliss.jira.plugins.workflow.manager.WorkflowLayoutManagerImpl.getExistingLayoutOrCreate(WorkflowLayoutManagerImpl.java:72)
So on and so forth.
Workaround:
- Download a copy of the workflow-designer for 6.4.0 workflow-designer-plugin-6.4-D20150109T010200.jar
- Stop your currently running JIRA.
- Replace the workflow-designer plugin in $JIRA_INSTALL/atlassian-jira/WEB-INF/atlassian-bundled-plugins/ (It will be named workflow-designer-plugin-6.3.xx.jar where xx is the version number) with the copy you downloaded in step 1.
- Restart JIRA.
This has only been tested for JIRA 6.3.x
