Not really a bug, but an annoyance:
Rebel Vortex missions, Tier 4, mission 1 from Brother what's-his-name (the first non-duty mission in Tier 4)... it would be nice if he'd advised me to take a group along BEFORE I accepted the mission. Long story short, I failed the mission having had to jump out. Now I need to make Rebel friends...

Your link is not valid but I think the same thing happened to me
Imperial Inquisition Tier 4, 1st mission
I just had to go to random wp to complete the first mission in Tier 4. However, I did this mission as the second one so I finally got my reward.
I can tell I am one mission behind and one box early as I am levelling up with two guildies who did not encounter this issue.
ugh.. that's right.. i posted in the 'issues thread' which gets deleted nearly daily.. *sigh

CorSec, Tier 2
Inspect Nym Canon ship.
Get the mission from the trainer on Corellia. Go to Lok system and locate Nym Canon Ship. Inspect and find the information you were sent to retrieve. Return to Corellia. Mission failed.
I had completed this one a week or so ago, but now my friend cannot complete it because of the above.

It will go through some automated stuff and then hit 'U' again to undock. That's it.It didn't work unfortunately. I tried several Nym freighters in the area, various sizes, etc. After disabling their engines, I tried inspecting them, which turned up nothing. Any attempt to dock was refused (so I blew them up :madAre the devs verifying these reported buggy missions? I know they probably have quite a lot on their plates right now, but many of us can't progress until these missions are completed.
Hmm, that sucks. The one in question shows up w/ a tan box around it (goes red once you open fire). I'd abort the mission and go back and get it re-assigned. Usually the one you're after shows up at the first waypoint in the system a few minutes after you hyperspace into the system. It's usually a ways away and takes awhile to get to... a few booster runs makes it go quicker.
I screwed up the first time by undocking too early. It will actually undock you once it's done w/ the automated 'capture' part.

Smuggler Alliance Tier 3 mission 4
After a patrol, you are suppose to join with hutt allies to fight against rancor clan forces.
When I arrive at the waypoint, hutt are outlined white, rancor clan are outlined yellow, neither of them move or fight until i start to fire on one of the rancor clan ships. Then all rancor clan attack me (they all turn to red) but the hutt ships still stay in space without moving, not helping me as they are supposed.
Managed to defeat the rancor clan at the first waypoint (tough fight, my rear armor will remember it), then I had to go to a second WP with the same orders, and same problem (yellow rancor and white hutt stay still in space until i shot one of the rancor)
After I don't know, the 2 Rancor Tier5 blow me in pieces before i could even jump in hyperspace.
Will try with some friends later

It'd be funny to try the PirateTrap stuff on the Hutts to see if you could stir them up. Most likely then EVERYONE including the called pirates would attack you! Yay!
I've read somewhere that if you hyperspace jump w/in the same system that the mission stays active. Maybe attack the Rancors (then run like hell w/boostes) and then immediately jump to a different part of the same planet. Give 'em awhile to 'get to know each other' then come back?

Rebel Tier 3, Mission 2
Tyrena --> Yavin IV
I'm given 3 waypoints, each withinfinitely spawning Hutt fighters. I'msupposed to inspect the Hutt fighters around the waypoints and find the one with the info on the Endor System, then dock with it to get the data.After finallydisabling the ship's engines (I killed it well over 20 times), and trying to dock, I get the message "The ship denies your request to dock". I eventually gave up, after being at it for an hour at least.

Rebel Master Pilot Corvette Mission
Ahazi Server
Imperial Corvette will not spawn after it has been destroyed once. After the first successful destruction of the day, the corvette will not spawn until after server reset.

Black Eplison Misions Teir 3 Mission 4
I dont know if this is mission specific but this is when I noticed it. I am in a tie bomber which I have two missile launchers installed. I take battle damage and the missile lauchers (ordance) is eventually damaged. I go to a space station and everthing is repaired according the the NPC. However I am unable to fire my either of the missile lauchers after getting a lock. I get a message that "weapon diabled" I check the ordance and still says 100%. (yes they do have ammo in it) The only fix that I have been able to do is land (lose mission) un-install the missiles and put them back in and they work again. The other weapons get repaired fine and work as expected. Seems to onlay affect the lauchers. This is a repeat problem for me.
Okay, this probably stems from your use of your Droid abilities. (if you don't use them, just say so, but I think is most likely the issue) When you Overload you Engines or Weapons, you are drawing more power from your Reactor. If you begin to draw more power from it than it can supply you will shut down other systems in your ship usually starting with your Missile Launchers, then creeping up the chain of weapons until all of them are disabled. On your Components Screen you can sometimes see little Icons next to your components and they are status indicators. A Triangle means it is functioning at less than peak efficiency and a Circle with a Line strikethrough means it is Disabled. A third symbol I can't recall right now means it is destroyed and needs repairing before it will be functional again. Somebody oughta write a Piloting mini-faq on Power Management...(okay, I will in a few hours, for now...sleep!)
On another note, I have occasionally had components disabled during a fight that did not re-enabled after repairs and I had already reset all my components to normal levels. And there is nothing quite like having your Droid Interface disabled so you can't reset your levels to re-enable your Droid Interface...(nothing for it but to land, hopefully after completeing the mission)

We finally got her through it. She stumbled upon one closer to the waypoint than all the others she had tried and it magically worked that time. My guess is that there are several canon ships in the area, you can only inspect once, and you don't know which one will give you the success of your mission.

Rebel, Tier 3, mission 2 (Naboo --> Dantooine track)
At the end of the mission, you're supposed to scan a "Blacklighter pirate" for the location of the base. Couple issues with this one:
1. Tier 5 Wing Commanders spawn there. Good exp if you're in a group trying to do this mission; a sure eventual emergency hyperspace trip if you're alone.
2. I tried this mission twice today, the second time, blowing stuff up in a group for over two hours, but no ship named "Blacklighter pirate" spawned. (as was reported by one of the group members as being the ship to look for in beta)
3. I'm stuck here at 348k starfighter combat exp, unable to spend it because the pirate wouldn't spawn. What's the cap, anyway?
Same bug on me

Sorry if this have been repeated:
Rebel Tier 2 ; mission 1:
There is no waypoint to begin the mission. And the mission says to you to arrive at one waypoint.
