After upgrade to Jira 7.4.3 some calls calling localhost

Question

We have just upgraded our Jira installation to 7.4.3, all was good before the upgrade.

The site is mostly working on the assigned base URL however now some calls, often originating from batch.js, are calling back to localhost. In particular the Average Age Chart and Activity Stream Chart gadgets are broken although other gadgets on the system dashboard are working correctly.

Also the dismissNotification call is returning a 403 error.

Thanks Lars - I hadn't set up the proxy name and port in server.xml.

No, that's not what I said.  Your base url should be the url you want to access the system on.  It doesn't need "mapping".

Look at your hosts file on the server.  For Linux it will be /etc/hosts

You need to make sure that is correct.  Specifically, what does that say for any lines that contain "localhost"

Ssl, proxy?

Perhaps you forgot changes to server.xml.

Tried http://127.0.0.1 instead?
