Database error after Confluence upgrade

Question

Upgraded Confluence server from 6.1.14 (MySQL 5.6) to 7.5.1 (MySQL 5.7).

Error when starting Confluence: "MySQL sesson isolation level "REPEATABLE-READ" is no longer supported. Session isolation level must be "READ-COMMITTED." [Words capitalized in the error]

MySQL Session isolation level is set to "read-committed"

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

The same thing happens even after restarting the server.

No that should be it.  If that is setup properly and you bounced the service are you still seeing the same issue in the logs?   Is there anything else coming up?

Thank you for the suggestion. We had seen that link. The MySQL Session isolation level is set to "read-committed" through the my.ini file.

Is there something else that needs to be done?
