[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Failure in periodic indexer worker thread

I wanted to respond to this thread on what I had to do to complete the
migration.  I decided to remove all of the barcode_1 that were duplicates
and make them null.  I did not want to lose the information so I placed the
barcodes in the notes section of the housed_at_rlshp table.  I hid the
database name for security reasons and replaced it with databasename.

update databasename.housed_at_rlshp a, databasename.container b set a.note
= CONCAT(a.note, ', ', b.barcode_1)
where a.container_id = b.id
and b.barcode_1 is not null;

update databasename.housed_at_rlshp a, databasename.container b set a.note
= b.barcode_1
where a.container_id = b.id
and b.barcode_1 is not null
and a.note is null;

update databasename.housed_at_rlshp a, databasename.container b set
b.barcode_1 = null
where a.container_id = b.id
and b.barcode_1 = a.note
and b.barcode_1 is not null
and a.note is not null;

Thanks for the feedback everyone!

Sorry if there's a duplicate, but I have not seen this posted to the
message boards so I posted a second time.
