I’m encountering a specific challenge while attempting to configure the JIRA Dashboard within my Eclipse IDE. When I try to add a server connection, I’m consistently receiving javax.mail.internet.MimeMultipart error messages. Has anyone else experienced similar issues during plugin installation?
Specific Details:
- Eclipse Version: [Your Version]
- JIRA Plugin Version: [Plugin Version]
- Error Message:
javax.mail.internet.MimeMultipart
Any guidance or troubleshooting steps would be greatly appreciated.

I've dealt with similar plugin configuration headaches in Eclipse before. From my experience, the `javax.mail.internet.MimeMultipart` error often indicates a deeper connection or dependency problem. First, verify your Java Build Path and ensure all JIRA plugin dependencies are correctly configured. I recommend checking your Eclipse's Window > Preferences > Java > Build Path settings and confirming that the required JAR files are properly linked.
Another critical step is examining your network proxy settings, as these can sometimes interfere with plugin communication. Go to Window > Preferences > General > Network Connections and confirm your connection details. If you're behind a corporate firewall, this might be disrupting the plugin's server communication. Also, try running Eclipse as an administrator and performing a clean reinstall of the JIRA plugin to eliminate any potential configuration conflicts.
