I created a script runner post-function to create a sub-task on a looped transition that goes from status a and returns to status a. The firt sub-task created fine. When I hit the button a second time, it just showed an eternal thinking wheel and now I can't load the project issue screen.
The post-function is simple, it creates a sub-task without any condition. I have one action scripted which is to set the summary to a set statement:
issue.summary = 'Incident Report for ' + sourceIssue.key
I did not set any action for what should occur if the sub-task already existed.
Initially I thought that by setting the summary to the same statement for two sub-tasks, it put JIRA into a state where it could not resolve the index of issues, but after I was thinking about it, the sub-task should have a different issue number, so the duplicate summary shouldn't matter. I don't know how to fix this. I went to the DB to see if I could pull up the issue I created and just delete the second sub-task, but the DB query won't load for that issue or its parent either.
I have used the sub-task create post-function many times with the same setup as above when moving from one status to a completely different status, so I am enticed to think that it might have something to do with the looping? Any help is welcomed.
