Confluence server upgrade from 7.8.1 to 7.13 failed to upgrade

Stefan Nanescu

Hello

After Confluence upgrade from 7.8.1 to 7.13 it does not start and shows this error in web page:

Confluence had problems starting up

This page is for Confluence administrators. If you're seeing this page, your Confluence administrator is probably working to restore the service.

Description Time Level Exception
Upgrade failed. Please consult the system logs for details. You will need to fix these problems, restore your database and confluence home directory to the pre upgrade state. Then retry the upgrade. Upgrade error message: Upgrade task com.atlassian.confluence.upgrade.upgradetask.DenormalisedSpacePermissionsUpgradeTask@73aa9965 failed during the SCHEMA_UPGRADE phase due to: StatementCallback; bad SQL grammar [DROP TRIGGER IF EXISTS denormalised_space_permission_trigger]; nested exception is com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'IF'.
2021-09-06 17:58:49 error
If you're unable to fix the problems and need to contact support, we can respond faster if you provide the logs of your instance.

I am using SQL Express 2014.

I restored back to 7.8,1

Please assist.

Thank you!

Hi @Stefan Nanescu

Since these are Database schema related errors, it is best to get support from Atlassian for troubleshooting. Please raise a ticket with Atlassian support.

Hello,

This is the way I sent a ticket in https://support.atlassian.com/contact/#/ having my product SEN.

I did not find any different path to report the issue, except that Ask a question now link ( https://community.atlassian.com/t5/forums/postpage/choose-node/true/interaction-style/qanda?add-tags=confluence&from-gsac=true ).

Please send more info about how to report it.

Thanks!

Hi Stefen, yes the first link you mentioned is correct - where you can use "Technical issues and bugs" in "What can we help you with" dropdown and just fill in the rest of the details like your product, SEN , issue details and submit it.

Stefan Nanescu

I did it, but do not know how to continue after select the SEN.

There is nothing to allow me to send something, no option, after the field: What is your Confluence Support Entitlement Number (SEN) ...

Hi @Stefan Nanescu

seeing your initial post I believe the database you are using is unsupported - SQL Express 2014.

Compatible databases as of "Supported Platforms" (https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/supported-platforms-207488198.html) are:

SQL Server 2016
SQL Server 2017
Azure SQL

Please double check if you can switch/migrate to a supported database. The error you are seeing could be indeed caused by using an unsupported database.

Regards,
Daniel
