Getting some unexpected & unidentified logs in catalina.out file

Question

Hello All,

We are getting some unexpected logs for Jira 4.3.2 that we are not able to identify.

Following are the logs :-

2012-08-20 05:17:33,462 TP-Processor7 ERROR wapt4 317x153x2 uazbxr 172.25.94.211 /secure/IssueNavigator.jspa [velocity] VM error : customControlFooter. Null AST

Can anyone please tell me why these error logs are coming & what is the workaround for it??

Thanks & Regards,

Renuka,

I am on JIRA 4.4.5 and encountering the same errors. Do you have a solution?

Hi Matt,

I will check after disabling custom plugin & update you what happens..

Thanks & Regards,

Perhaps some custom field type plugin that has problems in its edit .vm file? Try disabling custom plugins in a staging instance until it goes away perhaps.
