URLhttp://\<host\>/pages/editpage.action?atl_token=\<tokenid\>\&pageId=\<pageid\>Then I see the Content Encoding Error. If the page is edited and then saved -- it seems to work. However when hitting the cancel button it gives the error.In order to see the actual error I set the Firefox "network.http.accept-encoding" to TRUE -- then I see the large stack trace below. It has something to do with getCancelResult and the Page ID data type. I'm looking into this but if anyone has more info it would be helpful.

We need to remove Scroll Base Plugin. Even enabling it is giving the same error.

body: What if you don't want Scroll versions on the space anymore?

comments: author: roman
body: Hi Noah,If you want to uninstall Scroll Versions completely, you wold need to delete all Scroll Verisons-related data. To do this, please follow this guide: <https://www.k15t.com/display/VSN/Delete+all+Scroll+Versions-Related+Data>. This guide requires a little knowledge of DB query language. Please do it first in your test instance!Cheers,Roman.

It worked for us when encoutering this type of error :-)
