      Some users report that searching fails, saying that a user which isn't the currently logged in JIRA user is not found:

      com.opensymphony.user.EntityNotFoundException: No user joe found
      at com.opensymphony.user.UserManager.getEntity(UserManager.java:302)
      at com.opensymphony.user.UserManager.getUser(UserManager.java:193)
      at com.atlassian.core.user.UserUtils.getUser(UserUtils.java:31)
      at com.atlassian.jira.util.ParameterStore.(ParameterStore.java:35)

      This happens when JIRA is running behind a web server like Apache, which requires its own BASIC authentication, and the web server username is not the same as the JIRA username.
