- We checked Logs and found these errors on the Splunk log: msg: An issue type with the name 'Story' exists already. stack: java.lang.IllegalStateException: An issue type with the name 'Story' exists already.
Cause
We found the log files of this error and found out that this is being caused by duplicate issue types:
msg: An issue type with the name 'Story' exists already. stack: java.lang.IllegalStateException: An issue type with the name 'Story' exists already.
