Admitted, some changes to the repligard table happened in the 1.4 beta
cycle that escaped our attention, causing the database upgrade scripts to
fail. There is certainly room for improvement of the upgrade path from
our side.

I took this path to upgrade from 1.4beta6, the repligard table being in
incorrect state due to multiple upgrades.

Did this all work without problems?

What commandline did you use? Did you get any error-messages?
I did:
repligard -c install-repligard.conf -m
to create GUID's for all existing resources, then:
repligard -c install-repligard.conf -i AsgardSite.xml
and:
repligard -c install-repligard.conf -i asgard.de_DE.xml
for every language I wanted to install.
My install-repligard.conf looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<Repligard xmlns="http://www.midgard-project.org/repligard/1.4">
<!-- Database description -->
<!-- Path to optionally compressed Repligard schema file -->
<database
schema="/usr/share/midgard-lib/repligard.xml"
name="midgard"
username="midgard"
password="midgard"
encoding="ISO-8859-1"
blobdir="/usr/local/apache/mgd_blob"
/>
<!-- Login account description for Repligard operation -->
<login
username="admin"
password="password"
/>
</Repligard>

In what way is the installation incomplete? Where are those empty
db-records (in what table(s))?
I suggest you check the permissions on your blobdirectory, and to make
sure you run the repligard commands as root (you need to have write
access to the blobdirectory.
Not much help, I'm afraid, just doing my best with the information
provided. Please keep us posted on this problem, as we need to learn from
these situations, and improve our upgrade path.
