Summary15924: Can not send invitations to imported participants where emailstatus IS NULL
Description

After importing participants from CSV with an empty or omitted emailstatus trying to send invitation e-mails ends up with an error message although all listed criteria are actually fulfilled:

There were no eligible emails to send. This will be because none satisfied the criteria of:

  • having a valid email address
  • not having been sent an invitation already
  • not having already completed the survey
  • having an access code
  • having at least one use left
Steps To Reproduce
  1. create a new survey
  2. add a participants table
  3. import participants via a CSV without a "emailstatus" column (see attached example)
  4. generate access tokens
  5. go to "send email invitation"
  6. disable the "Bypass participants with failing email addresses:" checkbox (since the emailstatus is empty and not "OK")
  7. click "send invitations"
    => error message appears
Additional Information

I figured that after clicking edit on a affected particpant and saving it without doing any changes the invitations do work. Looking at the database contents I found that the problem is that after importing the "emailstatus" column is set to NULL. Manually editting and saving "wihtout changes" sets it to an empty string though and after this it works.

This issue is related to 15772 and 15823

Committer: GitHub Details Diff 		Fixed issue 15924: Can not send invitations to imported participants where emailstatus IS NULL (#1395)

Dev: although the WHERE condition "emailstatus <> 'OptOut'" *intuitively* should match everything that is not equal to "OptOut" it actually does *not* match NULL values in MySQL since it is not NULL-safe.

Dev: This is related to 15772 and 15823 since emailstatus should not be NULL in the first place.		 Affected Issues
