HP Procurve 2920 and Cisco 2960 Spanning-tree issue

I am working with a pair of stacked HP Procurve 2920-48G and I am attempting to connect a Cisco 2960G switch to port 1/28 on the HP side from port 0/32 on the cisco side.

When I connect the switches, the ports link up and according to the logs

Cisco 2920

I noticed that the Cisco port is configured is configured as shown below and the HP is configured with Spanning-tree on all ports. 

interface GigabitEthernet0/32
spanning-tree portfast disable

When I connect the two switches I am unable to pring from the cisco to the hp and vice-versa.

 

Any idea?

Hard to answer without configs.Make sure admin-edge bpdu guard port security is disabledon those ports
