      Atlassian Update – 16 November 2017

      Hi everyone,

      The issue has not collected enough votes, watches, comments or support cases during it's lifetime. In this sense overal interest in the reported problem is low.
      Jira team is focusing on bigger and more impactful issues at the moment and we are not likely to look at the current bug soon. Therefore I'm resolving the issue as Timed Out.

      Atlassian will continue to watch issue for the further updates, so please don't hesitate to share your feedback in the issue comments.

      Cheers,
      Ignat Alexeyenko
      Jira bugmaster.

      Steps to reproduce:

      1. Attach a file called "Something!default.jspa" to an issue
      2. From the View Issue screen, click the link of the attachment

      User is taken to the login.jsp screen with the redirect set to being the attachment. Also, once the user attempts to log in, they are redirected back to the login.jsp - i.e. they do not see the attachment.

      Trying to Save Link As simply downloads the login.jsp page instead of the attachment.

      There are two workarounds:

      1. Don't upload the file with that name;
      2. If you've already done that, then take the link to the attachment e.g. https://jira/secure/attachment/166123/EditTrustedApplication%21default.jspa and remove the portion of the URL from the bang onwards. The file will still download as the attachment is referenced by the id preceding the filename.
