Select List Filtering - Error occurred communicating with the server

Marc Fukuda

Every time I try to filter on Select List (single or multiple) custom field, I am getting this error:

Error occurred communicating with the server. Please reload the page and try.

 

It started a couple days ago.  It seems to coincide with when I created a few new Select List fields, but they were just some basic Yes/No fields.  I am seeing the error on all Select List fields, not just the new ones.

 

This is the start of the log I am seeing:

I have already restarted jira and re-indexed, but that did not help.

 

Anyone have an idea what I need to looks at?
