    Upgrading from Umbraco 7 to Umbraco 13 - "Boot failed" Error

    I'm trying to upgrade my Umbraco 7 project to Umbraco 13. I understand it's not a straightforward process, as I need to migrate the database content as well.

    I updated my Umbraco 7 project to version 7.15.11 and attempted to map the database to a newly created Umbraco 8.0.0 project. However, when I start the project, I encounter the following error:

    "Boot failed: Umbraco cannot run. See Umbraco's log file for more details." enter image description here

    Has anyone come across this issue or have any solutions for fixing it?

    I had similar troubles moving from 8 to 10 and decided to drop all the hassle and use USync Migrations: https://github.com/Jumoo/uSyncMigrations/blob/main/GETTING-STARTED.md It looks like they have a packer for v7

    It's not completely painless, you will still have to modernise all of your code and translate from .NET to .NET Core but perhaps it can take away some of the pain. It also lets you hop from 7 straight to the latest version of 13

    It might not be for you, but let me know if you give it a try!
