I guess you mean bareos-dbcheck?

Have you respected:

"""
If you are using bvfs (e.g. used by bareos-webui), don’t eliminate
orphaned path, else you will have to rebuild brestore_pathvisibility and
brestore_pathhierarchy indexes.
"""
?
If not, this already explains your problems.

So, do new backups run?

1. check if backups do run
2. check using bconsole, if the jobs contains file (list files
jobid=<YOUR_JOBID>
3. try to restore data using the bconsole restore command

If this all works successfully, there should not be much problems.
What is the output of dbcheck?

If 1-3 do not run successfully: you should have a backup of the Bareos
catalog.
