sonarqube downgrade version

Question

I'm using SonarQube version 5.1 and MySQL 5.6.19: Due to regulations I have to use the Long Term Support Version 4.5.4.

The problem is, that I get the following error message from SonarQube when I try to start SonarQube 4.5.4:

org.sonar.api.utils.MessageException: Database relates to a more recent version of sonar. Please check your settings.

Is there a work around for this issue?

Unfortunately, downgrade of SonarQube is not supported. Database upgrade scripts only execute in one way, from old version to new version. So in your case, you will have to start from a clean database and analyze your projects again from scratch.

Exact. That's why it's documented to backup database before upgrading. – Simon Brandhof Jun 21 '15 at 20:08
Is there an estimation, when there will be a LTS version for SonarQube 5.1? – Stelos10 Jun 23 '15 at 11:20
The current estimate so far is that there will be a 5.2.x LTS release sometime Q3 2015. – Mithfindel Jun 23 '15 at 19:17
