Hi,
As of an ongoing maintenace the system upgrade is being done.
we currently on v11.7.5 and need to move to version 12.
In line with the guidelines we are moving from 11.7.5 > 11.11.8 > db upgrade > 12.0.x > !2.newest.
However the first step moving to 11.11.8 fails
Malformed configuration JSON file found at /opt/gitlab/embedded/nodes/localhost.json.
This usually happens when your last run of gitlab-ctl reconfigure didn’t complete successfully.
This file is used to check if any of the unsupported configurations are enabled,
and hence require a working reconfigure before upgrading.
Please run sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure to fix it and try again.
and gitlab-ctl reconfigure fails with
here was an error running gitlab-ctl reconfigure:

The system being is clone of out production created to test the upgrade process.
I have manually created new backups off the test system which succeeded but I am wondering why reconfigure is moaning about the backups. The system otherwise healthy.
