Hi Julien,

That's where I noticed that there are 3 different "XXX-XXX-XXX" repositories on my test server (probably corresponding to the different versions of OMERO), but only one on my production server ! (for the production server, I moved my bynary repository to an NFS partition but between the 4-4-6 and the 4-4-7 versions).

Ah a smoking gun: NFS.
cF. https://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/support/omero4/sysadmins/unix/server-binary-repository.html#locking-and-remote-shares

Would it be possible to re-test without NFS in the mix, i.e. by copying (a portion of) your binary repository back to a local drive and starting up a copy of the database again it? Are you in fact seeing NullPointerExceptions in your Blitz-0.log?

Cheers,
