Absent any instructions that someone else can follow to reproduce this problem, we can only assume that it's a problem with your database having become corrupted. I suggest rebuilding the MPTT tree, which will likely resolve the issue:

$ ./manage.py nbshell
### NetBox interactive shell (laptop)
### Python 3.8.10 | Django 4.0.4 | NetBox 3.2.2-dev
### lsmodels() will show available models. Use help(<model>) for more info.
>>> Location.objects.rebuild()

If that does not resolve the issue for you, please determine a set of steps to reproduce the behavior on the most recent stable release of NetBox.
