I think it's not expected to get a null value at this point.

Taskjob itself is probably incorrect. Was it updated from a previous version, or created recently?

[jluis144]

hello,

how do i know which task are we talking about?
there are a total of 72 tasks, only one or two are new, the rest have been migrated from version 9.x to 10.x to 11.x

and, what is a new task?
if a task is cloned, it's considered "created recently" or "updated from a previous version"?
I ask this because I have cloned a lot of tasks, and deleted de originals

Check the json column of the glpi_plugin_glpiinventory_deploypackages table; as far as I understood, this should always contains a valid JSON, and you have a null one.

[jluis144]

i have data in all JSON columns
(if all are valid JSON I dont know how to confirm)

while checking for that, i noticed that in some rows, the UUID columns have NULL values

is there any way to get/find the exact Package that is causing this error?

thanks in advance,
Jose Luis

Invalid JSON would not break on this line according to the code.
I guess the problem is glpi_plugin_glpiinventory_taskjobstates entry references a missing object.

Please test #799
