Hi can you give me the detailed steps on upgrading from 5.6.3 to latest version . I have tried upgrading directly and have resulted in errors with the database . I had to move the database to a different instance as well.
1) Upgraded using the upgrade existing server during installation option
2) Database upgration done using the steps defined in
https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/database-setup-for-mysql-128747.html
3) Dumped existing database and followed steps in
But still Im getting the database error when starting up .

How can i resolve it is there any step i missed ?
Every time i switch a confluence server or database it has become headache
Hi Rajeev,
It looks like the upgrade didn't get started properly because of a licensing issue - this is from the log you linked:
2017-08-16 15:13:58,506 ERROR [localhost-startStop-2] [confluence.upgrade.impl.DefaultUpgradeManager] runUpgradePrerequisites Current license is not valid: SUPPORT_EXPIRED

If you have a new license, please enter it on this <a href="$CONTEXT/fixonly/fixlicense.action">page</a> and <b>restart</b>.</p><p>Alternatively, you can continue using Confluence by rolling back to a previous version. To do this you must perform a clean installation of Confluence of the version that needs to be restored then restore the confluence home directory to its pre-upgrade state. No database restorations need to be made.</p>
You may continue the upgrade by getting an evaluation license from https://my.atlassian.com and applying it before upgrading - eventually a new license will be needed, of course. Please see: What happens when the included maintenance ends?

Thanks for the tip; I have updated the license key again , then restarted the tomcat . then took a copy and tried the updgrade and its working now . No idea why it has not taken the license before.

Hello Rajeev,
In migrating the database, did you follow the documentation on Migrating to Another Database? I'd recommend having a look at that to make sure there's nothing you didn't miss.
If not, can you provide a few of the error lines from your startup messages so we can have a look?
Kind Regards,
Shannon

It looks like the tables in the new database are malformed.
I'd suggest following the migration instructions given by Shannon
