Hi

In our library we are using Debian 11 with MariaDB 10.5.15 and Koha 21.05.14.

When deleting bibliographic records in the staff client, some deletions produce the message: "An error has occurred! Error 500 / This message may have been caused by any of the following reasons: etc." In such cases Koha menu "About Koha > System information" shows the message aubout data problems, saying

Some of your tables have problems with their auto_increment values which may lead to data loss.

 You should not ignore this warning.

The problem is that InnoDB does not keep auto_increment across SQL server restarts (it is only set in memory). So on server startup the auto_increment values are set to max(table.id)+1.

To know how to avoid this problem see the related wiki page: DBMS auto increment fix


According to https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/DBMS_auto_increment_fix the problem shouldn't appear with MariaDB 10.5.15 but as a trial we have implemented the solution described there and have restarted everything - still the problem persists.

In such cases file "plack-error.log" shows the following:

{UNKNOWN}: DBI Exception: DBD::mysql::db do failed: Duplicate entry '6187-marcxml-MARC21' for key 'deletedbiblio_metadata_uniq_key' [for Statement " INSERT INTO deletedbiblio_metadata (biblionumber, format, `schema`, metadata) SELECT biblionumber, format, `schema`, metadata FROM biblio_metadata WHERE biblionumber=?
            "] at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Biblio.pm line 2907

I suspect this behavior indeed looks like the original auto_increment problem described in bugs 18242, 18651, 18966, 19106 and 20271 but the reason may in fact not be the same since the described problem shouldn't appear at all in MariaDB 10.5.15.

Does anyone have an idea what is happening and how we can solve it?

Best wishes: Michael
