Unable to comment on issue when URL includes extraneous comma

XMLWordPrintable

    • Severity 3 - Minor

      NOTE: This bug report is for JIRA Cloud. Using JIRA Server? See the corresponding bug report.

      I followed a link to an issue which had a trailing comma after the issue key in the URL. It displayed with no indication that there was a problem. On trying to add a comment, I got the Communications Breakdown error ("The JIRA server could not be contacted.").

      While this is clearly an edge case, it happened on a link that was detected in text, with the following comma being included in the URL.

      Steps to Reproduce:
      1. Open a issue and add "," (comma) to the end of the url. This could happen when user click on a link in a chatroom.
      2. Add a comment to the issue.

      Expected Result:
      Some earlier indication that there's a problem, or for all operations to work. An upfront 404, redirection to the correct URL or for commenting to work.

      Actual Result:
      Got the Communications Breakdown error ("The JIRA server could not be contacted.").
