Hi,

Upgrade to 3.98.0 failed from 3.97.x

I am running on Postgres, and migration either did not run.

Hi, Lenny.

I did some searching through our internal comms for an answer. I’m not part of Sonatype’s Support team, but this may solve your issue.

> 1. Stop Nexus.  
> 2. Run the following SQL on the Nexus Postgres database.
> 
> ALTER TABLE repository  
> ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS deleted\_on TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE NULL,  
> ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS deleted\_by VARCHAR(200) NULL;
> 
> 1. Start Nexus 3.98.0.

Thank you. I wound up having to manually update many tables with these columns. It took me a while and I am not sure that I got them all, but this update is definitely missed the database upgrade 🙂
