Upgrading Confluence from version 6.6.2 to 6.10.1 fails to start

Serey Khun

Good afternoon,

 

I am trying to upgrade my Confluence test instance from version 6.6.2 to version 6.10.1 and get the following error log with the following details:

In screen "Upgrade Check List [Form]", property "Pre-activation expression":

I have Confluence running as a Windows Service.  One thing I noticed when running the upgrade from the installer, it does not update the Confluence Windows Service to point the executable to tomcat9.exe  so I had to run the service.bat remove and install commands.

 

I have uploaded the logs from my home and installation directories here:

if someone can assist with troubleshooting this issue.

 

Thank you!

Based on your full logs, there could be a couple of things wrong:

2018-07-26 14:38:54,937 ERROR [FelixDispatchQueue] [osgi.container.felix.FelixOsgiContainerManager] frameworkEvent Framework error in bundle net.customware.reporting.core
org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Unresolved constraint in bundle net.customware.reporting.core [264]: Unable to resolve 264.0: missing requirement [264.0] osgi.wiring.package; (&(osgi.wiring.package=org.randombits.filtering.core.criteria)(version>=1.2.0)(!(version>=2.0.0)))

This is probably because of a plugin incompatibility. 

But your upgrade problem is mosts probably this:

Caused by: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: The database name component of the object qualifier must be the name of the current database.
at com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException.makeFromDatabaseError(SQLServerException.java:260)
at com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerStatement.getNextResult(SQLServerStatement.java:1547)

Things you can check is the Supported Platforms (https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/supported-platforms-207488198.html) for your target Confluence version. You could be using a wrong version MSSQL. 

Or try this:
