&lt;p&gt;Engines fail to boot up. The following error will appear in the &lt;strong&gt;gw-*.log&lt;/strong&gt; for Linux and in the app window for Windows:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;Cannot migrate: There is no migration path
&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
&lt;h2 id="cause"&gt;Cause&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This issue can be caused by one of two things:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You copied engine database files (&lt;strong&gt;*.kdb&lt;/strong&gt;) from a newer version of Appian to an older version of Appian. By newer version of Appian, this can include major version (16.3 vs. 16.2) or hotfix (16.2 Hotfix Package B vs 16.2 Hotfix Package A).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A hotfix has been recently applied, but this hotfix was applied incorrectly, so the installation now has code mixed from the new hotfix and the previous version/hotfix.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;h2 id="action"&gt;Action&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If this occurred right after a migration, recopy the engine database files to the same or newer version of Appian.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If this occurred right after applying a hotfix, reapply the hotfix.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 id="affected-versions"&gt;Affected Versions&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This article applies to all versions of Appian.&lt;/p&gt;
