All quality profiles do not have rules when SonarQube is updated to 5.4

We are currently launching a production server version 5.1.2, which we plan to upgrade.

Tests have shown that upgrading to 5.3 works as expected.

However, updating from 5.1.2 → 5.4 or 5.1.2 → 5.3 → 5.4 leads to the fact that all quality profiles from the 5.1.2 instance become empty - no rules are assigned at all.

Worse, backing up the rules and attempting to restore them fail.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is there any work?

Thanks in advance.

The upgrade instructions in the Administration (System Update) view are different from the instructions here: Upgrading

I would modify the first instructions as follows (in the italic text, the changed / added lines), and I will try to keep Upgrading in sync.

  • Copy the list of installed plugins and stop your old SonarQube server.
  • Download the new version of SonarQube and run it on an empty database (for example, bundled with DB).
  • Install (from the update center) the plugins you need.
  • Install your own plugins (if any).
  • Update the conf / sonar.properties file to use the appropriate configurations from the old instance, including connection information for your production database.
  • Stop your new SonarQube server.
  • Delete the following folders from the new SonarQube server: data, temp
  • Launch the new SonarQube: you're done!

I had the same problem as today, starting from 4.5.6 to 5.4. I managed to get around the problem by returning to 4.5.6 and then moving back the old way, that is, ignoring the new update instructions.

The environment was Windows10 / Postgresql4.3

Further research showed that I skipped a step in the new instructions, namely deleting the data / es directory.

I migrated several times, and if I run the default default database to check and update plugins, but forgot to delete the / es data directory before switching to postgresql, then the quality profiles will get null rules, but if I follow the instructions correctly, the profiles will correctly transferred.

Please check your procedures against http://docs.sonarqube.org/display/SONAR/Upgrading

Hope this helps
