- Enable verbose logging in postgres and observe the log (http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/static/runtime-config-logging.html)
Look for entries in the verbose logs that look like the following:

Resolution
Please make sure to make a database backup before making any changes in the database.
- Please stop the server.
- Please DROP the table with the below SQL query:
DROP INDEX idx_audit_item_log_id; DROP INDEX idx_audit_item_log_id2;
- Please restart the server.
- You should be able to continue with the upgrade with no issues.
