I have been trying to upgrade postgres version from 12 to higher version for a long period of time, and whenever tried it always gives me this error:-
The value of the 'Version' should be in: []. Verify that the specified parameter value is correct. (Code: ParameterOutOfRange)
Attaching the snapshot as well for the reference.
If someone could please help...

Thanks for approaching Microsoft Q&A!
Before performing a major upgrade, Azure conducts pre-check operations. If these checks fail (for instance, due to unsupported configurations or extensions), the upgrade does not proceed. You might want to check if your server has any read replicas enabled, unsupported extensions, or specific configurations that could be blocking the upgrade.
Please go through this document for limitations and the pre requisites

Could you please confirm the below detail.
- Can you please tell which exact version you are trying to upgrade 13 or 14 or 15 or 16 or 17?
- Please confirm which region you are current PostgreSQL server presents?
Thanks!
