Confluence showing $username in certain places suddenly

dominicfinke

Hi community,

 

got an issue suddenly that Confluence is showing $username instead of the actual username in certain places (not everywhere...).

 

For example, the user profile macro now looks like this:

Page history is also useless at the moment, cause it looks like this:

Checking the underlying links... they look screwed up too:

https://*******/pages/$contextPath/display/~$htmlUtil.urlEncode($username)

(no... the *** are not in there :P)

Any idea where this is coming from? How can I fix this issue?
