Issue Summary

Jira fetches incorrect application link and displays "No Confluence page found with the given URL" when attempting link any confluence web page in scenerio where there are two application link having similar base url as shown below

confluence#1 Base URL https://linux-106972.prod.atl-cd.net/confluence
confluence#2 Base URL https://linux-106972.prod.atl-cd.net/confluence2

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create 2 confluence instance having same base url except the context path as shown above
2. Create two application links in jira connecting to above confluence instances
3. Attempt to link the page by searching the pages from confluence#2 application link.
4. As a result, the pages are fetched/searched from correct confleunce#2 instance however when linked, Jira attempts to link it via confluence#1 application link.
5. In some case, it may link but to actually links to confluence#1 if the page id also exists as shown below in screenshot2
6. In some case, it may fail, with below error screenshot1 as it cannot find the page id on confluence#1.

Workaround

• Change the context path of secondary confluence instance from confluence2 to testconfluence and recreate the application link
  • You can use any context paths as long as one does not start with the other. For example, if one path is confluence, then a path like confluence2 will not work, but testconfluence will work.
