Unable in inject MailServerManager with Spring annotations

Dear community,

I’m using MailServerManager in an older plugin successfully (the holding class is defined as component in atlassian-plugin.xml; constructor based injection of MailServerManager w/o Spring annotations).

In a newer plugin which is using Spring scanner annotations I’m unable to inject MailServerManager: No qualifying bean of type [com.atlassian.mail.server.MailServerManager] found for dependency: expected at least 1 bean which qualifies as autowire candidate for this dependency. I try injecting it like all other pieces (e.g. PageManager) which work quite well.

Any idea why only MailServerManager fails?

Thank you

Andreas

It is hard to describe a fix without seeing your class, pom, or plugin descriptor. MailServerManager appears to be exported by System Bundle plugin so it should be possible to inject it.

Are you using the @Named() annotation to declare the SimpleQAHelper bean? I can’t see the first line of the class.

Yes I do use @Named.

What is the full import statement for MailServerManager?

import com.atlassian.mail.server.MailServerManager;

In the pom.xm - in the Import-Package make sure to include ‘com.atlassian.mail.server.*’ (comma deliminated).

Hi Daniel. This does not not help unfortunately.

@andreas1 try to make

<Import-Package>
                        org.springframework.osgi.*;resolution:="optional",
                        org.eclipse.gemini.blueprint.*;resolution:="optional",
                        *;resolution:="optional" 
</Import-Package>

I guess you are trying build plugin with version 2, this Bitbucket will be helpful

Dear @nturchin. Thank you for your suggestion. However it does not help. Honestly I doubt that it is an import problem as all the other injects are working without any problems. In my case it is only the MailServerManager which causes trouble.

@andreas1 I’ll try to reproduce your problem today, and let you know.

Problem is not in MailServerManager, it’s in PluginLicenseManager, something going wrong with class loading when these dependencies declared together. I guess problem in nested dependencies, some conflicts.
At this moment I don’t have any ideas with solution.

Dear @nturchin. Thank you very much for trying.

Hi @andreas1 & @nturchin,

Did you manage to find a solution to this? I am also hitting into the same issue. The UPM and MailServerManager do not want to play well.

Hi @tchin, I found just only one solution, MailFactory.getServerManager().

Hi @nturchin,

Thank you very much for that. Code works using the MailFactory.

@tchin You’re welcome. Be careful, the mail server object can be null if it has not been configured.

Right. Not my fault if they did not configure a smtp server where the functionality and documentation clearly states and relies on one.

:joy:
