[Koha] Upgrade assistance

[Evan Mungai Njoroge]

I had the same issue upgrading from Koha 22.05.04.001 to 22.05.05.000.
This came in handy -
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=31086

*SOLUTION:*
Log in to MySQL/Maria, change database to the instance DB;
Run;


*ALTER TABLE reserves MODIFY COLUMN `branchcode` varchar(10) COLLATE
utf8mb4_unicode_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT 0;*

Upgrade Schema.

Your upgrade will complete.

Regards
