error while updating universal plugin manager for jira 5.2.1

[chrisi]

when trying to update the UPM i get the error:

An error was encountered while updating the UPM. Please see the logs for more details.

In the logs there is the following error:

There was an error loading the descriptor 'null' of plugin 'com.atlassian.upm.atlassian-universal-plugin-manager-selfupdate-plugin'. Disabling.

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.springframework.beans.factory.DisposableBean

the currently installed version of the upm is 2.7.8.

There is a bug in UPM 2.7.8 and 2.7.9 which causes the UPM update to fail. Please take a look at the following Knowledge Base article for a workaround.

Cheers,

This has been fixed in Confuence 2.7.10

[BenW]

CORRECTION - It has been fixed in the *Universal Plugin Manager* version 2.7.10 (not Confluence), which will be released later today.

This seems to be a bug in the latest version of the UPM. More infor and a workaround in https://ecosystem.atlassian.net/browse/UPM-2960

Same thing here.

The error log contains this kind of lines:

I am getting the same on this, voted up for you!

[C_ Faysal]

Yup same here. Check you installed-plugins dir. I got selfupdate twice in there. After removing it and clearing .bundeled&.osgi-plugins and resrarting jira still broken upm update. Also uploading manually is no work arround. I think this version is damaged Im pretty sure atlassian is goin to fix it soon
