Seems not to work with Neon (Eclipse 4.6)
Submitted by Robert Meyer on Tue, 08/16/2016 - 12:01
I tried this in Neon. I'm able to to add a mantis task repository, but:
Creating a "New Query..." starts with "Refreshing configuration" for all my projects in mantis, but afterwards the "Create Mantis Query" window remains empty, e.g. there are no projects oder filters to select.
The eclipse log includes a NullPointerException:

Is this a bug or an "stupid error error" at my side? Is there a bug tracking tool (like mantis ;) ) where I could / should create a new issue for this?

Hi and thanks for the report. Yes, we do have a Mantis-based bugtracker - https://www.mantisbt.org/bugs/ , project Mylyn Connector.
Your report looks a lot like https://www.mantisbt.org/bugs/view.php?id=20264, which is fixed in 3.10.1 . Are you running the latest version?

In reply to Hi and thanks for the report. by Robert Munteanu
Hi,
thanks for the support ;)
I've installed the plugin from marketplace. When searching there, it tells me that I've installed "Mylyn Mantis Connector 3.11.0". Nevertheless, at my plugin folder, I see two jars "com.itsolut.mantis.ui_3.10.1.201407122122.jar" and "com.itsolut.mantis.core_3.10.1.201407122122.jar". I don't know which version may be more correct, but it seems to be the current version ;)
Unfortunately, it's not possible to register for a mantis account, so I'm not able to comment the issue directly.
Regards

I just pushed the "real" version 3.11.0 - previously there was some confusion and indeed only 3.10.1 was out. If you still have issues after updating please let me know.
Thanks,

Submitted by Burhan KILINC on Mon, 06/30/2014 - 08:12
I have been using this plugin for several years. However I was unable to install it on eclipse luna. I am getting the following error. Tried nearly everthing. Install eclipse again, install mylyn-commons bundle. Nothing worked for me. I get the following error.

Hi Daniel,
It looks like you're running an old Mylyn version . For the current ( 3.9.0 ) connector version you need Mylyn Version >= 3.7.0 .

Problem installing with eclipse luna

Hi,
I face exactly the same issue :

It looks like org.eclipse.mylyn.commons.soap doesn't exists anymore in the last version of mylyn (3.12.0 see : http://www.eclipse.org/mylyn/).

Hi Pascal,
Sorry for noticing so late, your comment was nested under an older one. This should now be fixed with version 3.10.1, please upgrade and let me know if things don't work as expected.
For the future, I suggest you use the user forum on MantisBT.org, as I can watch it using RSS feeds and respond faster.
Thanks,
Robert

Are you by any chance using the 3.1.0 version of the connector and Mylyn 3.2 ? You need to update to Mylyn 3.3 or downgrade to the 3.0.6 version of the connector.
