Diagnosis

When trying to use the installer, this error message can also appear on the UI.

Failing when upgrading JVM Path

 

Cause

Confluence tries to drop a table that does not exist. So the upgrade fails.

 

Workaround

You can create the table CONTENTLOCK manually so the upgrade will continue.
