    Umbraco 8 fails to Boot

    Hi

    Been working on a Umbraco 8 website, all working fine in 8.6.2, added in Vendr and all fine. Been working on the site for a couple of weeks.

    I added in an API Controller last night, ran Umbraco to test the API call and got hit by this:

    Boot failed: Umbraco cannot run. See Umbraco's log file for more details.
    
    -> Umbraco.Core.Exceptions.BootFailedException: Boot failed.
    
    -> System.InvalidOperationException: The migration plan does not support migrating from state "1dc031f7-57c6-48f3-a85f-d2a2a1f3643d".

    I've double-checked the connection string to the DB, that's all correct. I've re-added the password and user to the DB, Its literally just stopped working?

    Ive removed the API controller from the code in a desperate attempt to get it back, rebuilt but again the same problem.

    My last-ditch effort was to upgrade it from 8.6.2 to 8.6.3 and it did start to upgrade, I got the upgrade screen say it had been upgraded from 8.6.2 to 8.6.3 but I get this error again.

    Any idea what's going on? How can I bring the site back?

    So it looks like for some reason the Vendr DLLs were old versions.

    Upgrading the Vendr DLLs has everything back up and running.

    One to watch out for if anyone else runs into this :)

    Thanks! This helped me to diagnose a similar error which occurred with another package (SeoChecker). Older DLLs were on our preproduction environment after a swap of production and preproduction

    Another use case for anyone.

    If you had a Project or you copied from a Project and renamed everything Umbraco builds any custom Contact/Models by default into single DLL based on the project name.

    Remove that old Project DLL and sister files and rebuild. The rebuilt DLL under the new name will be the only one there.

    It is two DLL's with the same models etc in there conflicting.
