Description

Describe the bug

After editing recently imported Addresses and doing cleanup/manual merge of contacts. No addresses will be shown any more. The only clue I found is this Error in the Javascript console:

Steps to reproduce

There is no known way to reproduce the problem. I could export my oc_cards as the data itself is still there but just not shown..

MariaDB [nextcloud]> select * from oc_addressbooks where principaluri='principals/users/reini';
+----+------------------------+-------------+----------+-------------+-----------+
| id | principaluri           | displayname | uri      | description | synctoken |
+----+------------------------+-------------+----------+-------------+-----------+
|  1 | principals/users/reini | Contacts    | contacts | NULL        |       488 |
+----+------------------------+-------------+----------+-------------+-----------+

MariaDB [nextcloud]> select addressbookid, count(id) FROM oc_cards;
+---------------+-----------+
| addressbookid | count(id) |
+---------------+-----------+
|             1 |       407 |
+---------------+-----------+
Expected behavior

Display the Addresses or at least point to the offending Address Entry...

Actual behavior

Error only logged into the Javascript console, no Message displayed and no Addressbook is shown.

Research direction

Start with Contacts.vue around fetchContacts and addressbooks.js around getContactsFromAddressBook, then trace the contact.js key access and the reported ical.js failure. Use the supplied addressbook and card counts as context; done means the Contacts addressbook displays its entries or clearly identifies the offending address entry instead of failing only in the console.
