Description
NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Server. Using JIRA Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.
Summary
Due to JIRA not being able to handle 4 byte characters when using MySQL (JRA-36135), emails which contains 4 byte characters will fail to be created. However JIRA keeps on trying to process the email and each time it does, issuenum will increase by 1 although a ticket is never really created
Suggestion
Avoid this from happening. Some suggestions are
- Either stop processing kind of mail the moment it fails once to avoid issue number from increasing OR
- Change the process such that it will only increment issuenum when an issue is successfully created
Temporary Workaround
Remove the email containing the 4 byte character by either moving it to another folder or deleting it.
Permanent Workaround
See JRA-36135 - upgrade to Jira 8 or modify the database
