I can confirm that inconsistency between ocsinventory-server and 
ocsinventory-reports perl libraries versions, completely disintegrates 
database, after first GUI use and first inventory done by agent.
First step is a2disconf ocsinventory-*.conf, comment out the crontabs on 
all agents and save the last good database dump for later recovery.
Final one, is maybe to purge server and reports packages and install 
from upstream source (2.12.0 has some PHP8 fixes; perl libs go to 
/usr/local).
Restoring database from last good backup is necessary.
