Hello everyone,
I'm having this issue with my ArcMap 10.6.1. I think it is probably a "permission" issue, because I cannot copy and paste files on ArcCatalog. How can I solve this? Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Hi Caio,
Are you able to copy/paste other format data such as feature class or tables? If this only occurs to the raster, I would recommend you reaching out to Raster/Image Server and the issue might be related to the data you tried to copy.
Thanks,
Meggie
Hello Meggie,
No, In ArcCatalog I do not have permission to copy anything on ArcCatalog. My Professor suggested that this might be a problem of "access" and recommended me looking for solutions here. Any ideas on how to overcome this problem? Or how to change permission in ArcCatalog? Because the following message is always "Permission Denied".
I suspect the permissions are controlled by your organization.
Where are you trying to copy/save stuff too? Normally students are given full access to a subset of your local machine but denied access to other folders to prevent system/image corruption.
Hey Dan, thanks for replying!
I'm trying to move the raster dataset into ArcMap. The folders are in my desktop, but I still can't drag the rasters into ArcMap.
The Professor said that these files are old and do not have any permissions assigned. Any ideas on how to change that or how to find the folder that I have permission to drag?
try not dragging... we restrict such things in certain circumstances. Add the data manually through your Add data option
We have done that, and it works, and we are being forced doing that, but we have hundreds and hundreds of directories and thousands of files that have worked fine for the past two decades. I know Unix people are not allowed to use spaces in path and file names, but Windows has allowed spaces in names since the 1990's. We do a lot of Windows programming in-house and there is nothing special to allow spaces in file and path names. As a matter of fact, you have to go out of your way in your code to make sure that users can't insert spaces in their file names. Its just poor programming. ESRI has always had problems with excessive path lengths, and we have learned to live with that, but now they are screwing their whole Windows user base. Apparently, so far, this great march backward is only with the group that has been working on their grid routines, as far as we can tell, all the other ArcGIS functions work just fine with spaces in the path and file names.
We actually had another meeting on this today. Given the cost and the hundreds of labor ours required to go backwards, the general consensus is that it is probably going to be easier to just go back to Ver. 10.5. Everything worked fine in that version, and we have yet to see anything in 10.6 and 10.7 that does anything for us.
You might also want to batch some conversion of the esri grids to *.tif files as backups when you are back in 10.5.
It is the preferred standalone raster format now and also avoids the sticky situation where a corrupt 'info' folder kills a bunch of grids associated with it.
And more importantly, you can batch it ...

Saw no bugs BTW, but I would contact tech support in any event.
You are right. tif format is better. We usually try to use that, but sometimes when in a hurry, you forget to add the extension, and you get stuck with the esri grid format. I usually realize it just as i am pressing return.
大家好，
我的 ArcMap 10.1 遇到了這個問題。我在這種情況下遇到了同樣的問題，因為我無法在 ArcCatalog 上複製和粘貼文件。我嘗試了上述方式，但問題仍然無法解決。我該如何解決這個問題？有任何想法嗎？
提前致謝。
I ran into this problem with ArcMap 10.1. I ran into the same problem in this situation because I could not copy and paste files on ArcCatalog. I tried the above methods, but the problem still cannot be solved. How can I solve this problem? Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Hi everyone -
I have been encountering the same issues here, and have tried all of the suggestions - copying the data to a new file location with no spaces, etc; converting to a TIF file with no success. It won't even let me copy the data over to another location, as it just says "Failed to open raster dataset". I do have open permissions on all of our data, so I know that is not an issue. I tried moving the file, and exporting as a TIF in ArcGIS Pro, ArcMap and ArcCatalog.
Any advice on this would be incredibly helpful.
Thank you!
