Description

### Steps To Reproduce

I have a self hosted instance that auto-updates each week using the Updateself & update scripts.

After updating last night the MSSQL server attempted to update the database using script repl_upgrade.sql but eventually crashed. It restarts and does the whole thing again.

### Expected Result

Database update should complete and allow logon.

### Actual Result

MSSQL keeps restarting itself.
