# FIELD_GROUP_STORAGE_REFUSED

The field-group storage on this database is in a shape the field-group migration will not proceed from.

## Cause

The field-group storage on this database is in a shape the field-group migration will not proceed from.

The field-group storage migration checks the database's field-group tables and registry against each other before it changes anything. They disagree in a way no run of it causes, such as a registry row naming a table that does not exist, and the Why line names which.

## Fix

* Run the command again with `--verbose` to see the tables and rows involved.
* Correct them, or restore the database from a backup, before running anything that changes the schema.

## Example

```text
✗ The field-group storage migration refused to proceed.
  Why:  Registry rows name storage that does not exist.
  Next: Run the command again with `--verbose` to see the tables and rows involved, and check them before running anything that changes the schema.
