|------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| [YugabyteDB](/stable/) | [v2.20.6.x](/stable/releases/ybdb-releases/end-of-life/v2.20#v2.20.6.0) |                | [v2024.1.3.0](/stable/releases/ybdb-releases/end-of-life/v2024.1#v2024.1.3.0) |

## Description

Upgrades from [v2.20.6.x](/stable/releases/ybdb-releases/end-of-life/v2.20#v2.20.6.0) to some [v2024.1](/stable/releases/ybdb-releases/end-of-life/v2024.1) series releases (specifically, to [v2024.1.0.0](/stable/releases/ybdb-releases/end-of-life/v2024.1#v2024.1.0.0), [v2024.1.1.0](/stable/releases/ybdb-releases/end-of-life/v2024.1#v2024.1.1.0), or [v2024.1.2.0](/stable/releases/ybdb-releases/end-of-life/v2024.1#v2024.1.2.0)) will fail with an error similar to the following:

```output
Caused by: com.yugabyte.yw.common.PlatformServiceException: cdcsdk_enable_cleanup_of_expired_table_entries is not present in the requested db version 2024.1.2.0-b77
```

This happens because the configuration flag `cdcsdk_enable_cleanup_of_expired_table_entries` is missing in [v2024.1.0.0](/stable/releases/ybdb-releases/end-of-life/v2024.1#v2024.1.0.0), [v2024.1.1.0](/stable/releases/ybdb-releases/end-of-life/v2024.1#v2024.1.1.0), and [v2024.1.2.0](/stable/releases/ybdb-releases/end-of-life/v2024.1#v2024.1.2.0).

## Mitigation

To successfully upgrade from [v2.20.6.x](/stable/releases/ybdb-releases/end-of-life/v2.20#v2.20.6.0) to [v2024.1](/stable/releases/ybdb-releases/end-of-life/v2024.1) series, upgrade directly to [v2024.1.3.0](/stable/releases/ybdb-releases/end-of-life/v2024.1#v2024.1.3.0), or later.
