Merge request merge does not create close comment on JIRA

When an MR closing a JIRA issue is merged it closes the issue correctly. However no comment is created although we try to create it. Also no commit is linked (that happens together)

https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/app/models/project_services/jira_service.rb#L133

The error says

Exception response: {"errorMessages":["It seems that you have tried to perform a workflow operation (Done) that is not valid for the current state of this issue (TEST-4). The likely cause is that somebody has changed the issue recently, please look at the issue history for details."],"errors":{}}
