Cause
This issue is caused by having an unsupported JDK, not compatible with the new Bamboo version after the upgrade.
Resolution
Refer to the Supported platforms page for your version of Bamboo to check if a compatible Java version is used and JAVA_HOME is configured to look into the JDK directory. If any changes need to be made, stop Bamboo completely, make the changes, remove "caches" and "bundled-plugins" folders from under <bamboo-home> directory and start Bamboo again.
