java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to create a new instance of class MutableObjectBean
Cause
The application index of Assets has been corrupted
Solution
Please use following steps to clear the cache.
(Note that although no Data loss is expected, it is always recommended to backup Jira before proceeding):
Shut down Jira
Clear plugin and tomcat caches by removing the contents of these directories:
JIRA_HOME/plugins/.osgi-plugins/
JIRA_HOME/plugins/.bundled-plugins/
JIRA_INSTALL/work/
If your Assets is configured to "Restore Assets index from file" - please remove this file, so Assets will re-index upon start (the file should be located in the path /var/atlassian/application-data/jira/caches/insight_indexes) OR $JIRA_HOME/caches/insight_indexes
Restart Jira.
Wait for Assets Re-Index to finish
Try to filter/search again
