             Summary: JIRA session is not properly established using jiraUsername and jiraPassword
                 Key: MCHANGES-327
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCHANGES-327
             Project: Maven Changes Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: jira
    Affects Versions: 2.9
            Reporter: Diego Rivera


When using jiraUser and jiraPassword for authentication (in lieu of webUser and webPassword), the session cookie is not preserved in order to maintain the session authentication information for subsequent REST requests.

This means that although authentication succeeds, subsequent REST requests don't benefit from the long-running session that was established.

The JSESSIONID cookie value needs to be captured from the original auth request and preserved throughout all other REST invocations.

Using webUser and webPassword works, though, so at least that workaround is there.
