Upgrade Error

Parvaneh Zand

Hi everyone,

Upgrading Jira 8.17 to 9.8, we encounter this error:

2023-11-12 JIRA-Bootstrap ERROR [c.a.jira.startup.ComponentContainerLauncher] A fatal error occurred during initialisation. JIRA has been locked.

All of the plugins are disabled. How to fix this error?

Hi @Parvaneh Zand ,

Welcome to Atlassian community!

Could you please confirm, Which data base you are using ..?

Have you tried to start the jira after clearing the plugin cache ..?

.bundled-plugins
.osgi-plugins

Hi @Parvaneh Zand have you checked the logs? If there is nothing obvious there then you should probably follow the suggestion of logging a support ticket.

Hi I am having the same issue from 9.4.0 to 9.12.1. What was your solution please?

Ivan Belis

We encountered the same problem when upgrading from 8 to 9.12.2.

Tried a number of different things, disabling plugins , reverting plugins to older versions, clearing plugin cache ...but none of those helped.

After rolling back and upgrading to the 9.0.0 we do not have the problem.
We do want to go to the latest LTS (9.12) but this is preventing us.

Hi,

It's some sort of data error that Atlassian are not about to look at with Server version. This is only a small Jira database so goodness knows what is causing it, no non standard functionality. I was on 9.4.0 upgrading to 9.12.1 when I had this. As it was on the same Server, after all my backups, including a Jira export, like you getting nowhere, in the end I uninstalled Jira 9.4.0. I then installed a new 9.12.1 and then imported in the Jira export data and moved in the attachments etc. That sorted it. However, as I use this DB as a test bed for upgrades, I was not left with a warm feeling for my main next upgrade.

My other Jira database, also on 9.4.0 and much busier, interestingly upgraded just fine to 9.12.2 though (selected that release as it had just come out). BTW I don't usually go for the latest release (last time I could not upgrade to the latest 9.4.2 due to some error so I chose 9.4.0 which worked...).

I HATE Jira upgrades - they should be easy, but they are rarely without problems, hence not always selecting the latest release. This may be my last one though

Interestingly, I have a BUG with the Logging and Profiling that Atlassian have been able to duplicate for me. As part of this upgrade process investigations, I noticed that I have a growing $JIRA_HOME\log\automation-jira-performance.csv file. It's very obvious as the DB usage is so slight, and despite following Support's instructions I cannot stop from growing. I don't use Automation on this DB and I do not want/need this file at all. I'll await the outcome on that...

Hope this helps.

Thanks for your answer.

I am now sticking to version 9.4.15, that does not seem to have the problem.

The upgrade process was indeed far from ideal, a lot of troubles with the plugins - especially with the bigpicture plugin. The plugin forced me to update to a lower version of bigpicture (for database updates i guess) but that was only supported by a lower version of Jira. I had to restore and restart the process two times but now i seem to have a working scenario. Bigpicture did 2 times a database upgrade and each of them took a long time - more than an hour (but i did not time it).

All this was in our sandbox environment, keeping my fingers crossed for the production environment that is planned next week. I have not a lot of confidence in the process to be honest.

It is the last upgrade of server we are performing and i would have liked to land on the latest version considering the upcoming cloud migration.

Regards,
Ivan

Plugins do seem to be an issue, though I do not have bigpicture (only Automation and Outlook). Sounds interestingly, but they've removed the Marketplace so can't look at it!

Apart from security, the only new feature I benefit from in 9.12.x is the ability to Add comment anywhere in an issue. Best of luck with the upgrade and future Cloud.

Sue
