Upgrading JIRA Software from 7.0.x to 7.9.x, JIRA Agile add-on fails to enabled with this error in the logs:

Diagnosis

  1. At 7.0.x (pre-upgrade), JIRA Agile works fine
  2. At 7.9.x (post-upgrade), all JIRA Software components are enabled, except JIRA Agile

  3. This SQL query suggests that JIRA Agile fails to be upgraded from Build 50 (7.0.x) to Build 51 (7.9.x):

    select * from propertyentry pe inner join propertystring ps on pe.id = ps.id where pe.property_key like '%reen%build%';

    Output

    ID	ENTITY_NAME	ENTITY_ID	PROPERTY_KEY	propertytype	ID	propertyvalue
25505	jira.properties	1	com.pyxis.greenhopper.jira:build	5	25505	50
  4. Related KB: Only whitespace content allowed before start tag when trying to view project within JIRA Software

Cause

The error message suggests that there's a NULL entry somewhere in the database, related to JIRA Agile. This SQL query can be run to find it out:

select * from propertyentry pe inner join propertytext pt on pe.id = pt.id where pe.entity_name like '%reen%' and pt.propertyvalue is null;

Output

ID	ENTITY_NAME	ENTITY_ID	PROPERTY_KEY	propertytype	ID	propertyvalue
10333	GreenHopper.UpgradeHistory	1	2018-04-22T21:22:51.689+08:00	6	10333	null

In this specific example, there's a NULL entry for JIRA Agile Upgrade History, causing JIRA Agile to fail to be upgraded to the latest build, thus fail to be enabled.

Resolution

Remove the NULL entry as follows, using the right ID (10333 as in the above example):

delete from propertytext where id = 10333;
delete from propertyentry where id = 10333;
tip/resting Created with Sketch.

Upon JIRA restart, JIRA Agile should be upgraded to the latest build (51) and enabled properly.
