Critical Hi Team,
We are using jenkinsLTS (2.235.3) and tried upgrading to latest version 2.303.2 but upgrade failed with the below error.
Steps followed:
- Stop Jenkins
- Rename existing Jenkins. war to Jenkins_bakup.war
- Download latest jenkins.war
- Start Jenkins
After launching the Jenkins URL, it took some time to bring up Jenkins and ended up with below error.
Please advise on this.

added a comment - - edited Are you using the Configuration as Code plugin? If so, which version? There's not enough here to make this report actionable.
I recommend you ask for troubleshooting help on the Jenkins Users mailing list or in chat.

Reformatted the stack trace to make it easier to read.
Changed the component from installshield-plugin to core because all methods listed in the stack trace seem to be in core and nothing else in the bug report mentions InstallShield.
