Adding new labels to an attachment with versions duplicates the labels.

    • None

      Steps to reproduce on clean confluence instance

      1. Go to demonstration space
      2. Click Tools - Attachments
      3. Add attachment - any format (csv and ppt have been tested)
      4. Label attachment with a label - any label
      5. Use edit in office or attach file again to give two revisions.
      6. Add another label
      7. Refresh the page
        • You will now find that the initial label is duplicated, one for each revision, yet the new label only appears once.
      8. Adding another label after this does not duplicate any of the existing labels.

      NB: This issue no longer occurs for new labels created in Confluence 4.3.

      However, any duplicated labels will still remain after upgrading. To remove them please follow the below steps:

      1. Click the pen icon to edit the labels
      2. Click on the X of one of the duplicated labels
        • This will make all labels of that word disappear, however it has only removed one. This is being tracked in CONF-26727
      3. Close the label editor
      4. Refresh the page
      5. Repeat with all duplicated labels.

            [CONFSERVER-26588] Adding new labels to an attachment with versions duplicates the labels.

            I should note, that duplicated labels that were created as a result in 4.2.13 do not get removed when upgrading to 4.3. Also strange behaviour is exhibited when trying to remove the duplicate. Clicking the x on the label actually removes all of the labels with the same name, clicking close looks like the attachment then has no labels. However, a refresh and they appear again.

            This still occurs in 4.3.1.
