Steps to reproduce the issue

Not sure. This site started as 3.7.0.beta3 and followed the upgrade path up to current 3.7.0.rc1
I created a few fields and a field group back at beta3. (not certain if this is relevant)
I created an empty field group (not certain if this is relevant).
I go to Content >> Fields

Expected result

Custom fields list view.

Actual result

Raising error 500: Unknown column 'a.name' in 'field list'

System information (as much as possible)
