Broken HTML on home_link

[jbingemer]

Hi,

I have a small question about a visible problem. The "Startseite" (HTML id home_link) link is showing escaped HTML and I'm unable to find the reason or a fix.

Jira is installed on Debian 9 behind an SSL enabled nginx working as a proxy (Jira listen config added an additional Port 8081 from some knowledge base articles). Everything else is working perfectly.

Any idea how I could fix this ?

My change from /opt/atlassian/jira/conf/server.xml (default connector changed to port 8081 and and additional connector using the right hostname and scheme on port 8080):

Hi Jorg, 

It looks like you modified the menu template. Normally there is no underline under the t in the menu text "Startseite".

Did you modify the template or translations text?

Hi Jeffrey,

I did not modify any template or translation. Where could one modify this, I thought this stuff is inside the jar files ?

Hi Jorg,

It is possible to modify the JAR files. 

However we don' t recommend doing so.

Does the issue occur when you are accessing JIRA without the proxy?

Hi Jeffrey,

unfortunately this does not make any difference, just tried using a SSH Tunnel and Port 8081 (see server.xml).

Using http://127.0.0.1:8081 (when forwarding the local port 8081 to the server):

But I talked to someone today that is also using Jira and he knew the problem. It also happens on his installation since the upgrad to 7.7.1. In fact with Jira 7.6 and the exact same nginx proxy config (old server) did not have this issue.

Hi Joerg,

If you are still having the issue with the proxy.

That means that the issue is not caused by the proxy.

Can you look in the logs for  "Modified Files": 

 Are there any .vm files listed there?
