If you’re using The Connector plugin to synchronize tasks between MS Project and Jira, you may experience the following error in the plugin log:
Initializing Synchronize with JIRA...
Running pre-process rules.

The cause of the error is very simple: one of the tasks you’re trying to synchronise is already closed in Jira. To resolve the problem, reopen the issue in Jira.
