Can't connect to an local admin account

Must-share information (formatted with Markdown):

  • which versions are you using (SonarQube Server / Community Build, Scanner, Plugin, and any relevant extension) 2025.6.1

  • how is SonarQube deployed: zip, Docker, Helm .zip

  • what are you trying to achieve

    I wanna upgrade perfectly my sonarqube, from a 9.9.1 to 2025.6.1,
    I succeed the upgrade , but got a problem , problem is that i got the GitLab login activated and when I login with Gitlab it redirect me to the old version , so I wanna connect to sonarqube with a local admin account , but it doesn’t work , and when I create an admin user’s directly in the DB , restart it , it continue to not work so I just want to connect to an local admin account to get the sonarqube administration panel

  • what have you tried so far to achieve this

Do not share screenshots of logs – share the text itself (bonus points for being well-formatted)!

Hi,

Welcome to the community!

As part of your upgrade you should have shut down the old instance, connected the new instance to your DB and run the DB upgrade.

Are you sure you completed the upgrade successfully? Because your old instance shouldn’t be reachable - as such - anymore, although presumably the upgraded instance should be using the same URL.
