The id sequence of your data (article is id 1 and 24) seems to imply that records are not being written twice (that would give article as ids 1 and 2), rather that the process is being run twice somehow.

[ludo1960]

only because I sorted the table by item, here it is sorted by id:

Doesn't make any difference to the ids what order you sort the records into. The point is that the two ids for any item have a difference of 23

Good news guys, found the error:

I was having a tough time trying to install xdebug, I used the output from php -v and put it in here: https://xdebug.org/wizard.php  The output from my php.ini was PHP 7.2.18-..... Then the wizard gave me the steps to follow. The script needs phpize from the php-dev bundle seemingly. As I had just rebuilt my dev box, I was watching the xdebug install doing its thing and I noticed that php7.0 and php7.3 kept whizzing by as the script progressed. Strange I thought, i've got php7.2 why is xdebug downloading all this stuff?? Needless to say when i tried to get xdebug working by adding 

zend_extension=/usr/lib/php/20170718/xdebug.so

to the php.ini, and you guessed it, it didn't work! Plan B was called for, re-installed my dev box from scratch. Then installed php7.2-dev so that I had the right version of phpize, and it all went to plan. No more double entries in the database, and all errors are displayed...Result!!! Moral of the tale, dont trust the xdebug wizard!
