Upgrade problems (8.3.3 -> 8.13.2)

[Contemi-EUR: Dariusz Nowak]

Hey,

I'm trying to upgrade my old 8.3.3 Jira to 8.13.2 (I believe LTS), my process is preety simple:

* Stop Jira

* Run atlassian-jira-core-8.13.2-x64.bin & atlassian-jira-software-8.13.2-x64.bin selecting option to upgrade existing Jira

** Not sure should I run both of them but tried only 2nd one (assuming software already has core inside) and no differerence

Then when I try to start Jira with all plugins (it works with --disable-plugins) I'm getting:

{code}

Is this maybe related to a specific plugin as it's not clear from error message?

Thanks
