Database migration fails from HSQLDB - Cannot insert the value NULL into column user_name
Symptoms
External database migration fails from HSQLDB:
2013-03-06 15:57:20,836 ERROR [threadpool:thread-3] tester 939x54x1 9x6sca 10.95.31.99 "POST /admin/db/edit HTTP/1.1" c.a.s.i.m.FullMigrationMaintenanceTask Reverting database configuration after a failed migration attempt
com.atlassian.bitbucket.internal.backup.liquibase.LiquibaseChangeExecutionException: Failed to execute change: Insert Row; nested exception is com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'user_name', table 'Bitbucket Server.dbo.cwd_user'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
...
Caused by: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'user_name', table 'Bitbucket Server.dbo.cwd_user'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
...
Cause
Values that match the string null
are actually transformed into a null value (NULL) which prevents successful completion of the migration.
Workaround
- Stop Bitbucket Server.
- Either connect to the Bitbucket Server database and rename the offending table entries directly (table
CWD_USER
, see the schema below) or rename the values inBITBUCKET_HOME/data/db.script
:
INSERT INTO CWD_USER VALUES(298135,'null','null','T','2013-02-15
10:25:38.301000','2013-02-15
10:25:38.301000','null','null','null','null','null','null','null@atlassian.com','null@atlassian.com',229377,'nopass')
For reference, this is the table schema:
ID USER_NAME LOWER_USER_NAME ACTIVE CREATED_DATE UPDATED_DATE FIRST_NAME LOWER_FIRST_NAME LAST_NAME LOWER_LAST_NAME DISPLAY_NAME LOWER_DISPLAY_NAME EMAIL_ADDRESS LOWER_EMAIL_ADDRESS DIRECTORY_ID CREDENTIAL
For example, to modify the database, first locate the offending entries:
SELECT * FROM cwd_user WHERE user_name = 'null';
Second, update them:
UPDATE cwd_user SET user_name = 'null_value' WHERE user_name = 'null';
Resolution
An internal development task has been created to track this issue.
