[Koha] invalid data, cannot decode object

Hi Jonathan,

The result of the query:

Count = 0

This was a fresh install about 4 months ago, then we imported the data from
OLib...which had died an ugly death, and therefore we had no MARC records...
so we crafted SQL queries to load the data and it was working fine...
running on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

When we updated Ubuntu, it updated to 19.05 automatically... and it's after
this that we have found this problem... which did not exist before... Once
it's working again, I'm going to disable the repository for Koha so that it
won't update Koha without me knowing :-)

Any input appreciated!

Ron

It means you have missing biblio_metadata for some of your bibliographic
records.

Is it a new fresh install? Did you just upgrade to 19.05? How did you import
your records?

The following SQL query will return the biblionumber that do not have a
biblio_metadata entry:
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM biblio b LEFT JOIN biblio_metadata m ON
b.biblionumber=m.biblionumber WHERE m.biblionumber IS NULL;
