Summary
Per Developer Escalation creating this defect for a problem that occurs when a Page Properties report on a grandchild Page contains an embedded JIRA macro. The ultimate parent page will be thrown into a continuously refreshing loop, and we are unable to stop the loop from occurring without forcing the browser to stop.
Steps to Reproduce
- Create a new Confluence 6.0.6 instance
- Add the demo site content and a local admin account
- Import the attached Space Export se2.zip
into the newly created Confluence 6.0.6 site - Perform a Content Indexing administration for the site
- Navigate to <yourConfleunceURL>/display/TS2/Page+Properties+testing
- Observe the page in a continuous loop as the Page Properties report in a grandchild page has a JIRA issues gadget in the report
- Observe that you can not stop the page from looping by clicking links, the back button or other methods
- Quit your browser
- Reopen your browser
- Go to <yourConfluenceURL>/display/TS2/Summary+of+BLUE+Child+Pages
- Remove the JIRA Gadget in the report for Blue page 1, with JIRA Gadget
- Navigate back to <yourConfleunceURL>/display/TS2/Page+Properties+testing
- Observe that the page looping is no longer present
Expected Results
Page Properties reports would display without issue and the page would render normally.
Actual Results
Page becomes stuck in a loop, and continues to attempt to render the reports - refreshing the page continuously and appending to the page URL with each attempt. The only way to stop the rendering is to force the browser to stop the attempt by manual intervention.
Workaround
The only workaround at present is to insure that JIRA macros are only embedded at the Child Page level and no deeper than the child level, or the looping will occur.

[CONFSERVER-51985] Embedded JIRA macro in Page Properties Grandchild Page causes Continuous Loop of Page
Hi romain.coury,
In this case, I don't think it's the same issue. Would you contact support here so that our support engineers can help you investigate your issue?
Bug is still existing in Confluence Server 6.3.4 without any Grandchildren Page. A single Child Page is enough
Need reopen?
A fix for this issue is now available for Confluence Server customers.
Upgrade now or check out the Release Notes to see what other issues are resolved.
