Plugin incompatibility with Bitbucket Server 3.0

Platform Notice: Data Center Only - This article only applies to Atlassian products on the Data Center platform.

Note that this KB was created for the Data Center version of the product. Data Center KBs for non-Data-Center-specific features may also work for Server versions of the product, however they have not been tested. Support for Server* products ended on February 15th 2024.

Summary

Symptoms

With the release of Bitbucket Server 3.0, all interfaces that were marked deprecated in Bitbucket Server 2.11 and earlier will be removed completely. As a result, existing plugins that use any deprecated interfaces will not be automatically compatible with Bitbucket Server 3.0.

Some plugins have already been identified as incompatible with Bitbucket Server 3.0:

Diagnosis

Plugins that use any of these interfaces (which would have generated deprecation warnings when built against Bitbucket Server 2.12) generally won't compile with Bitbucket Server 3.0.

Precompiled plugins that used any of the deprecated interfaces will fail to install or run in Bitbucket Server 3.0, typically with java.lang.NoSuchMethodError.

Cause

Plugins are using interfaces that have been removed in Bitbucket Server 3.0.1 release.

Solution

Resolution

Check on the plugin website for a more recent release compatible with Bitbucket Server 3.0 and update the add-on. When the add-on is not available for Bitbucket Server 3.0 and/or was archived, please remove the plugin from your instance.
- Instructions can be found on:
  - Updating apps
  - Uninstalling apps
In case the vendor is still active and this hasn't been reported, please report this issue to the plugin vendor. On the plugin page in Marketplace you'll be able to find a Support page for non-Atlassian plugins. You can also link them to the Bitbucket Server 3.0 - API Changelog
