Cause
The Tomcat work directory is corrupted and should be cleared. Once the /work directory for JIRA has been cleared, Tomcat will re-generate the files upon startup.
Resolution
Some cases were fixed by performing a "FULL Reindex", hence before executing the below steps, a FULL Reindex should be performed.
- Shutdown Tomcat
- Clear <tomcat>/work/jira directory
- Start Tomcat
