I have a user with the global search permissions, "browse users and groups", yet he can't search?

As stated I have a user who is in the permission group to browse users and groups. However, he is unable to search for names, even his own, when inside a project. I have tried adding a secondary permission group he is also apart of, I have changed his project role to see if that worked (it didn't I changed it back). He is the only user with this issue and I am not sure what else to do.

Hello @Moriah Clement 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

What version of the product are you using?

In what field is the user trying to search for users?

Hello!

 

He is trying to search in the affected user field, and we are using database version 12.00.601 and JSM: 5.12.20
