Why does Jenkins Credentials show "This ID is already in use"

I am doing a fresh install of Jenkins on an EC2 Ubuntu AMI. I install the default set of plugins (which includes the Credentials plugin). After logging in, I go to the Credentials link, select the default Global domain, and add a new credential. After I add a username with password credential (leaving the ID blank), I am able to add it. But then when I click on Update, I see "This ID is already in use" message under the ID field. I have tried this with Jenkins 2.23, 2.21, and 2.18 and I keep seeing the same message. Anyone know why this could be happening? Credentials Error Message

Should be fixed with (not released yet) v2.1.6: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-38861

EDIT: New version v2.1.6 was released and fixes the problem for me.

It turns out that the problem went away once I changed the version of one of the plugins. The Credentials Plugin version 2.1.5 was showing this problem. Once I changed the version of that particular plugin from 2.1.5 to 2.1.4, the problem went away and I haven't seen it since.
