"Upgrade completed successfully" line missing when performing manual upgrade

Summary

When performing a manual upgrade to Confluence version 6.6.8 from an earlier version, the line Upgrade completed successfully does not show up in the atlassian-confluence.log file. This can cause confusion as to whether or not the upgrade was successful as users will not see the setup wizard when performing a manual upgrade.

Environment

• Confluence 6.6.8

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install an earlier version of Confluence, such as 6.5.0.
2. Perform a manual upgrade to Confluence 6.6.8

Expected Results

After taking the manual upgrade steps and restarting Confluence, the following info line should show up in the atlassian-confluence.log file:

Actual Results

The Upgrade completed successfully line is missing from the log files.

Notes

This issue does not appear to affect the actual upgrade process but can be confusing for users that rely on this information to ensure that their upgrade was successful.
