Problem
When you navigate to the All Projects page and attempt to search the list of projects, nothing happens.
Diagnosis
Check the JavaScript console of your browser. If you see an error similar to item.lead = null then this is the same issue.
Cause
One of your projects has an invalid Project Lead assigned to it. This may be because a user was improperly set at one point, or a user was removed from the system.
Resolution
Run this query:
select p.pkey
from project p
join app_user au on (p.lead = au.user_key)
left join cwd_user cu on (au.lower_user_name = cu.lower_user_name)
where cu.id is null;
Any project which is affected must have their project lead reset. Just go into the Administration portion of the given project, then go to Roles, and update the value from there.
