Diagnostic Steps
Disable the Scaffolding add-on and confirm that the errors no longer occur.
If you do not have the Scaffolding add-on, enable Safe Mode and individually enable add-ons one at a time until the offending add-on is identified.
Cause
An incompatible version of a plugin is installed. The Scaffolding add-on has been identified as causing issues with the Macro Usage page in Confluence 5.10+. At this point, the Scaffolding add-on is the only one that has been identified. A Service Rocket discussion on this can be found here: https://community.servicerocket.com/servicerocket/topics/confluence-macro-usage-doesnt-work
Solution
Resolution
Disable the add-on until the issue has been addressed and the plugin can be updated.
