Subject of the issue

I have migrated my bitwarden_rs instance from docker to compiled binary and with it also the database from sqlite to mysql, and now usernames/passwords are not visible anymore. The items are present, as well as the collections and organisations, but under each item password and username are no longer there. Weirdly enough secure notes are intact. I can add new items and sync them as well, so the problem is probably not the binary.

Your environment

Bitwarden_rs version: 1.16.3

Install method: previously docker, now compiled from source
Clients used: all
Reverse proxy and version: nginx
Version of mysql/postgresql: previously sqlite3, now mysql 5.7
Other relevant information:

Steps to reproduce

Migrate from sqlite to mysql using the guide. Ensure the ciphers table is intact and contains all the elements in mysql.

Expected behaviour

Everything works as before.

Actual behaviour

Usernames and passwords are no longer available.

Relevant logs

Sadly the logs are not interesting, even in trace mode.
