Cascade Created Conflicting Database Migrations
Database migrations generated by Cascade conflict with existing migrations, causing the migration engine to fail during startup. The application won't boot because Flyway/Liquibase can't determine the correct migration order.
Cascade may have generated new migrations without checking existing schema version files.
Error Messages You Might See
Common Causes
- Cascade generated V2__*.sql migration with same timestamp as existing migration
- Cascade created backward-incompatible schema changes without intermediate migrations
- Migration naming convention not followed (version ordering incorrect)
- Cascade added DROP TABLE statements that conflict with dependent tables
How to Fix It
Check migrations directory for duplicate version numbers. Review Cascade's generated migration for compatibility with existing schema. If conflicts, rename Cascade migration with higher version number. Test migration on copy of production database before deploying.
