"System Error" when searching for ~username

I was trying to find my profile page. I tried ~username in the search field. It throws a "System Error" page up instead.

Cause:
org.apache.velocity.exception.MethodInvocationException: Invocation of method 'getExcludedMailCount' in class com.atlassian.confluence.search.actions.SearchSiteAction threw exception class bucket.search.lucene.LuceneException : Couldn't parse the query successfully:Encountered "~" at line 1, column 0. Was expecting one of: ... "+" ... "-" ... "(" ... ... ... ... ... "[" ... "{" ... ...
