Error Upgrading Confluence from 7.4.17 to 7.13.0

Michael Cromer_yvm2pc

Hello,

I am trying to upgrade my on-prem Confluence Data Center environment from v7.4.17 to v7.13.0. I want to go here instead of directly to the latest version because our Postgres database version is v9.6, and I want to also upgrade that to the latest available version.

I have a testing environment where I've stood up another v7.4.17 environment, identically deployed via automated Helm charts into a Rancher Kubernetes cluster. When I attempt to deploy a v7.13.0 Helm chart, the upgrade seems to work, but then it receives an error at some point. After the error, the deployment is in a stuck state and I cannot access the application. This same error occurs when attempting to upgrade either a new deployment, or a deployment with an imported copy of our production data. The error is below.

Any assistance that could be shared in helping me resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I've done several successful deployments now with multiple Helm chart versions of Confluence and Postgresql, and my challenge was actually not waiting long enough for Postgres to fully initialize and be ready before launching my Confluence Helm chart. New browser had nothing to do with it.

Hi @Michael Cromer Did you check https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/unable-to-start-confluence-or-enable-the-usage-stats-plugin-due-to-cannot-forcefully-unlock-a-nativefslock-error-688884516.html? Looks like exactly the error you see. Permissions issues?

Michael Cromer_yvm2pc

Hello Yevhen,

Thank you for your response. I apologize for the delay in my reply. I ended up redeploying my kubernetes environment as it was in an unusable state when trying to resolve this challenge.

I did check permissions on this staging 7.13.0 directory and compared it against our production 7.4.17 directory, and the permissions (drwxr-x---) line up between the deployments.

I also monitored the directory where the write.lock file appears, and deleted it as soon as it appeared to see if that would resolve the issue, and it didn't.

One thing to note: my directory that contains the write.lock file was in a different location than stated in the link, and I "stop" the application by reducing the number of Confluence replicas in kubernetes to 0, and then bringing it back up to 1.

Any further assistance is appreciated.

Thank you.

Yevhen_5guu4k

Hey Michael! Do I get it right? You scaled sts to 0, deleted lock file, scaled to 1 then to 2 and the issue persists?

Can both replicas use a shared volume for example?

/var/atlassian/application-data/

is a local home which is persisted individually for each statefulset replica. Perhaps the two pods share it somehow?

Michael Cromer_yvm2pc

Good Morning Yevhen,

No, the process you listed isn't what I was doing during my comment. I was logged into the container directly and actively monitoring the directory where the write.lock file was appearing, and I deleted it as soon as I saw it, thinking/hoping that that would resolve the issue.

After reviewing your comment, I gave that a shot: I deployed the helm chart, added a trial license key, and then when the error appeared, I scaled down to 0, removed the write.locl file, and then scaled back up to 1. I now get what appears to be a general system error, pasted below. Scaling up to 2 does not change the end result.

For what it's worth, we generally only run Confluence with one active replica, so I don't know that this would necessarily be the issue.

Thank you for your response, and I look forward to your next reply.

System Error

A system error has occurred — our apologies!

For immediate troubleshooting, consult our knowledge base for a solution.

If you would like to receive support from Atlassian's support team, ask your Confluence administrator to create a support issue on Atlassian's support system with the following information:

a description of your problem and what you were doing at the time it occurred
a copy of the error and system information found below
a copy of the application logs (if possible).

Your Confluence administrator can use the support request form to create a support ticket which will include this information.

We will respond as promptly as possible.
Thank you!
