Fix problems caused by database schema changes between Gitea 1.8.3 and 1.15.2

2 Factor Auth didn't work, but was only used by 2 users anyway. We delete the old settings:

delete from two_factor;

There is a new column repository.owner_name that needs be set. Otherwise the web frontend displayed links starting with //.

Before fixing, we checked the owner_names queried by joining via "user".id = repo.owner_id:

select "user".lower_name, repo.owner_name, repo.lower_name from repository as repo inner join "user" on "user".id = repo.owner_id;

UPDATE repository
SET owner_name = map.name
FROM (SELECT "user".lower_name AS name, repository.owner_id AS id
      FROM repository INNER JOIN "user" ON "user".id = repository.owner_id
     ) AS map
WHERE map.id = repository.owner_id;

Problems with old logins

Till now PASSWORD_HASH_ALGO argon2 was used, but seems not to work in the new version. Using the password recovery works.
