Really, upgrading from Mautic 4.4.13 to 5 is not a simple task.

I simply couldn’t upgrade one of my Mautic instances because it was an environment that had been updated since version 2.

In another instance, I encountered a similar error to yours, but in the campaign\_lead\_event\_log table. In my case, the solution was to delete some records in the metadata column.

I recommend performing all these upgrade tests in a cloned environment and not in the production environment, to avoid your campaigns and everything else stopping from working.

This link - [Getting json\_array error after upgrade to v5 - #9 by viktor](https://forum.mautic.org/t/getting-json-array-error-after-upgrade-to-v5/31476/9) - has more information that may help you.

Best regards!

Sandro
