Confluence 'Create JIRA Report - Change log' doesn't load - regression

      Summary

      The JIRA 'Change log' Report creator in Confluence no longer works.
      When attempting to create a report the screen the 'loading' icon is displayed indefinitely and the report never loads.

      This worked in 6.4.1, and broke in 6.5.0

      Environment

      • Confluence Version 6.5.0
      • Jira 7.5.3

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. In confluence click on the '...' next to the 'Create' button in the top menu bar
      2. Select 'JIRA Report' and click 'next'
      3. Select 'Change Log' and click 'next'
      4. Select a Project from the drop down menu, leave other fields as default and click 'create'

      Expected Results

      1. The report is created and the page is loaded

      Actual Results

      • The loading icon will be displayed indefinitely and nothing will happen, the report is not created
      • The below exception is thrown in the logs
        ERROR [http-nio-8090-exec-6] [common.error.jersey.ThrowableExceptionMapper] toResponse Uncaught exception thrown by REST service: com.atlassian.confluence.extra.jira.JiraIssuesManager.retrieveXMLAsChannel(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/util/List;Lcom/atlassian/applinks/api/ReadOnlyApplicationLink;ZZ)Lcom/atlassian/confluence/extra/jira/JiraIssuesManager$Channel;

        POST https://confluence/rest/create-dialog/1.0/content-blueprint/create-draft 500 (Internal Server Error)
        

      Workaround 1

      Workaround 2

      "switch to advanced" prior to hitting "create" works for some users

      • The error will occur if Automatically update issue status and summaries from Jira is checked in the Switched to Advance settings

      Workaround 3

      Manually create the page

            This kind of regression is precisely the kind of fix which Enterprise customers would expect to be back-ported as it impacts the whole 6.6.x stream and expecting an upgrade to a non-Enterprise release for a regression of functionality would not be acceptable.

            Workaround is not working in Confluence 6.6.5 as well ,

            none of the workaround works in Confluence 6.6.4

            Piotr Dziedziel added a comment - none of the workaround works in Confluence 6.6.4

            I couldn't find a regression issue for this problem.
            This is happening again in Confluence 6.6.2 + Jira 7.7.2.
            Workaround 1 isn't working.
            Workaround 2 works, still it's a workaround not a resolution.
            Workaround 3 isn't an acceptable workaround for the users.

            The blueprints plugin workaround allows the editor to load, but the page fails to publish on Confluence 6.6.2:

            We have the same problem saving static data (not dynamic Jira upd). Workaround 1 and 2 are not working for us. Need a solution ASAP.

             

            We also create the page manually using wiki markup but the  Jira issues macro wiki markup additional parameter cache=on is not working also.
