Exception While Publishing Data: Issue Type Not Found in DQIT

Reported for version 10

A problem occurs with the DQIT issue importer. A plan is created to import and merge issue and a custom issue type is added as well. When attempting to run the plan, there is the following error:  Exception while publishing data: Issue type custom_type not found.

In order to fix the problem and verify whether everything was configured correctly, follow the steps described below.

Step-by-step guide

  1. When you change the configuration of the model or add a new issue, you need to generate the project files. In order to generate the files, right-click on the project in the IDE and choose Generate.... After generating the files, reload the metadata (right-click on the project > Reload Metadata).
  2. By default, DQIT loads configuration files from [DQIT]\tomcat\webapps\dqit\WEB-INF. You need to specify the path for the configuration files generated for the project in the setup.properties file located in [DQIT]\tomcat\webapps\dqit\WEB-INF\classes

    Specify the following parameter in the setup.properties file:

    data.folder=${catalina.home}/webapps/dqit/WEB-INF/

    Usually, generated configuration files for the project are located in

    [DQIT]\workspace\[project_name]\Files\etc

    Please note, either absolute or relative path is acceptable.

    However, if you prefer the absolute path, each backslash character must be duplicated, for example:

    C:\\[installation folder]\\workspace\\[project name]\\Files\\etc\
  3. After specifying the setup.properties file, restart the Tomcat server.
