Description
This has happened to me at least twice, fortunately I kept the original tables.
1. A shapefile was saved as a geopackage. There was a problem with the geopackage layer and when it was opened up it was found there were no data columns at all in the geopackage data table. Fortunately I had kept the shapefile and on the second attempt it saved correctly.
2. A geopackage was saved as another geopackage, again columns have disappeared. The most serious problem is the FID column has had data from another field copied into it (text data) which means the FID values would have to be made up by the user to allow a save to occur.
I am now checking all my geopackages in my project as it appears there has been data deletion in more layers than I had realised.
