From time to time, JIRA's nodeassociation table has abandoned references between schemes and projects. This is suspected to occur if a project was deleted, but for some reason these references remain.
The integrity checker should help detect when a non-valid project ID is referenced in nodeassociation and remove the reference.
As of JIRA 7.x, for example, if there is a reference to a non-existent project, the UI will result in an error and prevent admins from modifying the schemes. The logs show:

A method to look for these bad references is via SQL:
- For example, when looking for a permission scheme that refers to be non-existent project:
select * from nodeassociation where sink_node_entity = 'PermissionScheme' and sink_node_id = 0 and source_node_id not in (select id from project); - This will return references that have an invalid project ID
- This row should then be removed
