Diagnosis

This issue happens when you add a Jira issue and you can't view it in Confluence.

Cause

It happens when the following parameters are in jira-config.properties or jpm.xml:

jira.search.views.max.limit = -1
jira.search.views.default.max = -1



Resolution

  • Shutdown Jira
  • Open the jira-config.properties file (located at the root of your JIRA Home Directory) in a text editor.
    (warning) This file may not exist if you are using a new Jira installation or an upgraded Jira installation where your previous Jira version(s) had never been customized.
  • If you don't have jira-config.properties file, you need to open JIRA jpm.xml file which is located at <jira-application-dir>/WEB-INF/classes/jpm.xml 
  • Find for the following parameter in the file

    jira.search.views.max.limit = -1
    jira.search.views.default.max = -1

    and change it to

    jira.search.views.max.limit = 1000
    jira.search.views.default.max = 1000
  • Save the file

  • Restart Jira
