Link to open issue broken on user profile page

Andreas Pelzer

If a user opens his profile page and then selects any of the "Assigned Open Issues per Project" (on the numbers, not on the project names), then an 500 error is displayed and the log notes:

Jira version: 7.12.0

I tried to recreate this problem in my own Jira 7.12.1 version.  However when I click these links (the numbers), I do not get an error.   I did some additional research on this I came across this bug:

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-67891

While it seems to deal with a different but related location, I think it might actually also pertain to the user profiles as you have seen here.   If so, then it would stand to reason that this was related to that bug and in turn this is fixed in the 7.12.1 release.  

I hope this helps.
