Summary

Problem

When trying to view the 'Manage Boards' page, an error will pop up in the UI, stating 'Internal Server Error'. The list of boards are not visible.

The following appears in the atlassian-greenhopper.log

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 java.lang.reflect.UndeclaredThrowableException at com.sun.proxy.$Proxy2588.findRapidViewsByName(Unknown Source) at com.atlassian.greenhopper.web.rapid.view.RapidViewListHelper.buildListAndConfigModel(RapidViewListHelper.java:87) at com.atlassian.greenhopper.web.rapid.view.RapidViewListResource$2.call(RapidViewListResource.java:82) at com.atlassian.greenhopper.web.rapid.view.RapidViewListResource$2.call(RapidViewListResource.java:78) at com.atlassian.greenhopper.web.util.RestCall.response(RestCall.java:42) at com.atlassian.greenhopper.web.AbstractResource.createResponse(AbstractResource.java:100)

Diagnosis

To check whether or not the instance is facing the same problem that we are facing here, perform the following query :

1 select * from AO_60DB71_RAPIDVIEW

From the results, check if there are any entries that either does not have any values for the 'SAVED_FILTER_ID' column, or if the value is 0.

Cause

The value of the 'SAVED_FILTER_ID' is invalid (NULL or 0). As an Agile board needs to be based on a filter to retrieve information, when the filter that it is configured to use is invalid, problems arise.

Solution

Resolution

  1. Perform the following SQL query :

    1 select * from AO_60DB71_RAPIDVIEW
  2. Check to see if there are any invalid values in the 'SAVED_FILTER_ID' column

  3. Delete the entries from the AO_60DB71_RAPIDVIEW where the 'SAVED_FILTER_ID' has an invalid value

  4. Restart the instance

    Always back up your data before making any database modifications. If possible, test any alter, insert, update, or delete SQL commands on a staging server first.
