Summary06595: Data restore from oldsurvey... table returns ERROR: invalid input syntax for type double precision: ""
Description

Using a Postgres database, the data restore from an oldsurvey... table produces the error

ERROR: invalid input syntax for type double precision: ""

when the old_survey and survey tables contain a double precision column and null values in a data record. Instead of using a null value for the INSERT statement, the restore tool uses empty strings '' which causes the error. Double precision fields only accept strings in scientific number notation.

I have a workaround of copying the data manually on a SQL command line using
INSERT into survey_... select * from oldsurvey... but that's not accessible to the

Additional Information

It would be great to have a restore function for old token data as well.

Also, when deactivating a survey data and tokens are archived in the old... tables. When reactivating the survey and initializing a new token table it would be great to have an option to reapply the custom attributes right there. The attribute definitions seem to be stored in the background, but one has to go to custom attribute management and enter the correct number of attributes for them to reappear.

Along these lines, I haven't seen a function to remove custom attributes.
