I just upgraded a Confluence 6.5 instance to Confluence 6.7 using the Windows installer and it started up afterward without looking for that file. I verified that the file analytics-api-*.jar is for a plugin. (Analytics client plugin)

If you stopped the Confluence Windows service and ran the installer, choosing upgrade, it should have worked as it did on my system. One thing to try first is to clear the plugins cache, in case the old plugin is being called from the cache. Please try How to clear Confluence plugins cache and let me know if that helps.

Hi Ann,

I used the Windows installer.

I upgraded from version 6.5 to 6.7.

Let me know if you need any additional information.

Hi Itay,

I searched for the analytics-api-5.2.20.jar again in my 6.7 archive and sure enough found analytics-api-5.4.3.jar instead, as you reported. The question is, why is the startup looking for the wrong jar file?

To help me take a closer look, please let me know if you used the Windows installer or the .zip archive for the upgrade. If there is a doc you used for the upgrade, please link it so I can see which method you used.

In case I end up needing to reproduce the upgrade, please let me know what version you upgraded from.

Thanks,

Ann
