      In a job configuration screen pushing Apply brings up an empty error window; pushing Save brings the below error 500 stack trace.

      I mentioned build 1.463 because this it is mentioned in the plugin wiki page, not because I validated that the problem doesn't exist on pre 1.463 versions.

      A possible workaround may be found in this comment: https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Build+Failure+Analyzer?focusedCommentId=65668033#comment-65668033
