Hi, We are using the enterprise edition of sonarqube in my organisation and having valid license for Sonarqube. Recently we tried to migrate Sonarqube from 8.2.0.32929 directly to 8.9.1.44547 and had some issues. Below are the steps we followed -
Step 1. - Created a new database(we need to use new database as we are migrating to cloud). Restored the dump created from old database to this.
Step 2 - Downloaded binary for 8.9 version and created instance for it. Connected it the new database.
Steps 3 - As expected after launching URL, it asked to upgrade the database. Followed as requested.
Now after DB upgrade when we start the sonar, no old data is visible in UI.
Could we get help here. Are we doing right or we need to upgrade to some version in between 8.2 and 8.9.
Please guide.
That upgrade path should work. It sounds like either your Elasticsearch indices were still rebuilding (we’ve moved to incremental availability in the 8-series) or maybe they got corrupted. It’s been a while since you posted this. Did the problem resolve itself? (That would indicate that the indices were still rebuilding at the time.)
