      1. Set up Confluence Server (5.10 to latest) with a production (i.e. non-H2) database

      Attachments are broken.

      Images do not display. Attachments may give an error with

      `Attachment File Not Found`
      
      `The attachment you were trying to download could not be found in the attachment file store. Either the file has been deleted manually or there was an error in removing the record of the attachment from Confluence.`
      
      `If this attachment is no longer required you can delete it from Confluence on the attachments page. Otherwise, you will need to attach a new copy.`
      
      `<< Back to attachments page`
      

      The below exception is thrown in the log file:

         message: Requested attachments not found in Filestore, so serving it locally. attachmentId: xxxxxxxx 
      

      Workaround:

      1. Delete and reimport the space or
      2. Use POST REST API call
         /wiki/rest/api/content/\{id}/child/attachment/\{attachmentId}/data 

        as mentioned on Confluence Cloud resti api documentation

      For the second workaround, please contact our support team at https://support.atlassian.com/contact/ to export the broken attachments ID and name.
