zabbix-server.service not running after OS upgrade

[teague]

I have Zabbix 6.0 running on Ubuntu 18.04. Running apt updates/upgrades and then do-release-upgrade, (now successfully on 20.04) results in zabbix-server.service stopping immediately after every start. running journalctl -u zabbix-server gives the the output in the attached image (sorry I could not scrape text out of the VMware remote console app).


Thanks in advance! I reverted to a snapshot and have everything back in a working state on 18.04.

The picture is not showing.

But in general, I do Debian upgrades so that I first (take backup and) uninstall Zabbix components, upgrade the OS, install the correct zabbix-release package for the new OS, and finally install the relevant Zabbix packages again.

Thanks for the reply. sorry, I am just seeing it. I was under the impression this post was denied so I didn't check it until now. And apparently I don't have that screenshot anymore or I would post it.

I will try it in the sequence you lined out.

Thank you.
