Custom Field Ids longer than 5 characters aren't allowed

[Former user]

I am trying to check the value of a custom field by id: %{100831} != null, in a "Boolean validator with math, date-time or text-string terms".

It seems that you cannot have id's longer than 5 chars. I get the following exception.

Only if the following boolean expression is true: %{100831} != null, :: LEXICAL ERROR : Lexical error at line 1, column 8. Encountered: "1" (49), after : "%{10083"

When I check the same thing on a field id that is 5 chars long, it works fine.

Hi,

Currently, the plugin's parser only expects field codes exactly 5 digits long. I didn't expect that being a problem, since JIRA begins creating field codes at 10000, and increase the code one by one.

Are you sure you have a custom field with that 6 digits long code? Is it of any special type or created by a plugin? Which version of JIRA are you using?
