Custom field not found

[Adam Wignall]

Hi,

I followed all the steps in the screenshots for the Merge plugin but when i try to merge 2 issues from the Merge screen that opens when that workflow step is selected I get an error that says "Custom field 'Merge into issue' not found"

JIRA version is 4.4.4

Please ensure that you named the custom field exactly "Merge into issue" case and space sensitive and it is on the merge screen. The field is selected by name as

CustomField customField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Merge into issue");

Later it may be enhanced. If the problem still exists please provide the exception from atlassian-jira.log.

Hi,

yes that has resolved it I had a capital I on issue.

Thanks looks like it will be a very useful plugin. Great work.

I'm actually having this issue with Issue Merger 1.0.2-JIRA5 on JIRA 5.0.

My custom field is the same as what the example says, "Merge into issue", but it fails to find it saying, "Custom field 'Merge into issue' not found"

[Verhás István]

On the shot you provided there is no 'Merge into issue' customfield at all, only the comment filed is displayed in the transition's view. Did you assign the same screen with the workflow transition as the custom field is configured on?

The customfield.png shot I provided DOES show "Merge into issue and it assigned to the "Merge Issue Screen". The "Merge Issue Screen" has been assigned in my active workflow as a transition step as well.
