So the following error seems to be causing the issue.

Others have encountered this issue as well (see the following thread for a temporary solution).

> To elaborate, we have a view that depends on a derived data table that is created at runtime. If the view definition is executed before that table is run, we’ll run into this bug. The temporary fix was to allow the view creation to fail as it would be recreated on the next restart. [https://github.com/openboxes/openboxes/blob/develop/grails-app/migrations/views/changelog.xml#L81](https://github.com/openboxes/openboxes/blob/develop/grails-app/migrations/views/changelog.xml#L81) I’m not super happy with that solution, so I would recommend manually executing the following SQL script on your dat…

I’m confused because I was under the impression that 0.8.17-hotfix4 included a hotfix for this issue. But I’m starting to think that it was actually fixed in 0.8.18 (which is to be released in the next week or two). So for now, you’ll need run the SQL in the thread referenced above.

Apologies for the inconvenience.
