TeamCity Plugin - not able to connect to TeamCity server from Intellij IDE
Hello,
I am trying to integrate my Intellij IDE with TeamCity server. I have downloaded the plugin from the TeamCity Server from "My Settings & Tools" section. After installing the plugin from Settings->Plugins->Install plugin from Disk and restating the IDE when I entered the login details - URL - https://MyTeamCityServer.com, Ueer Name - myusername and Password - mypassword, I was presented with this pop-up message - "TeamCity plugin version is not compatible with the server "https://MyTeamCityServer.com". Server version is null, plugin version is 61678, download updated version of plugin?" If I click "Update Now" on the pop-up, the update process fails with following error message in the EventLog bottom of the IDE - "Cannot update TeamCity plugin: error opening the zip file, Retry"
MyTeamCityServer.com (name changed) is an enterprise version - 2018.2.4 (build 61678) managed by my Company. As a developer I don't have full access to the TeamCity server, except creating project, configuring build and running build. I came to know about the TeamCity plugin while browsing through the online documentation and thought worth giving a try. But couldn't pull it through, I appreciate any help to salvage me from this.
Thanks much.

Unfortunately, the TeamCity version your company is using is no longer supported, and I would suggest to consider upgrading it.
Regarding the message during the plugin installation, it looks like the TeamCity version could not be retrieved. Could you try to fetch a plugin from this page?
Hello Fedor,
Thanks much sparing your time to look into this and respond. I have downloaded the plugin from the page you suggested, installed it. But, now getting a different error message - "Specified server was not recognised as a TeamCity server. Check the url". I have attempted login with the same url as with previous attempt. Looks like issue with older TeamCity server version as you opined?
Hello Kamalesh,
Yes, it appears the plugin version retrieval does not match endpoint on the server side. Just to confirm, have you tried 2018.2.60977 version? It is listed as compatible with IntelliJ IDEA 15.0.4+ and, release date-wise, should be closest to the TeamCity version you are using.
Other than that, upgrading would be the best approach. Please feel free to reach out should there be anything upgrade-wise we could assist with.
