Error retrieving attachments from Confluence. The server may be unavailable.

Question

When I go to the Insert files and images window in Confluence I get the next message:

'Error retrieving attachments from Confluence. The server may be unavailable.'

I have no problem uploading new files, but I don't know why this is happening and would like to solve it. I believe this may be the reason I am having a trouble with a plugin that works through attachments.

Unfortunately, one of my users just had this same problem.  35MB+ attachment could be attached to a page, but in edit mode he can no longer add the attachment into the page.

Problem still exists even in safe mode.

Confluence 6.4.0

Yes, it affects attachments with different file formats. It is curious as the attachments work and I can upload them, they just don't appear.

Hm,

it is so related this issue

Is it affected you for all attachments?

Could check with different attachments?
