Issues Upgrading from Ignition 7.9 to 8.1

Hi everyone,
I'm encountering issues while upgrading Ignition from version 7.9 to 8.1.
Before applying the update in the client environment, I'm testing the process on a dedicated machine.
Here's what I did:

  1. Installed Ignition version 7.9.16.
  2. Restored a backup of the 7.9.16 Gateway.
  3. Used the Ignition 8.1.45 installer to perform the upgrade.
    The upgrade process seems to complete without errors. However, when I try to access the Gateway after installation, I encounter the following message:

I also noticed that the Ignition service fails to start.
I’ve checked the wrapper.log, but I couldn’t identify the root cause of the problem.
Has anyone encountered a similar issue or have any advice on how to resolve this?
Thank you in advance for your help!

Regards,
Bruno

It looks like you have an invalid GC setting in use inside your ignition.conf file. Comment it out and try again.

Unrecognized VM option 'UseConcMarkSweepGC'
