Onderwerp: Synchronizing a Koha database with kohastructure.sql (Bug 34064)


Hi all,



I think we’ve all encountered issues with a Koha database being out of sync with kohastructure.sql, and it’s not a fun experience to have. Today, I ran into items.paidfor columns that have survived long past a 20.11.00 upgrade. While looking to resolve that across all my instances, I was thinking how there could be other quirks as well, so I thought it would be nice to have an audit script:



“Bug 34064 - Compare kohastructure.sql against current database using database audit script”



It’s not 100% perfect, but it does a very good job of detecting differences between a live Koha database and kohastructure.sql, and provides suggestions on how to remedy the database.



It could be further improved, but I’m quite happy with this first draft. I’d like to be able to run it using koha-foreach to get a sense of how in-sync my Koha databases are on a server.
