Right mouse click on the toolbox, select properties and add an alias on the General tab, solved this problem for me.

I have seen this AttributeError when there are two toolboxes active with the same alias. In this situation, ArcGIS has trouble accessing the correct tool because of the alias conflict.

Greetings...was there a fix to this?

I get the following...

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module>
arcpy.CopyFeatures_management(polygon, ShapeFile_prj)
File "C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS\Desktop10.0\arcpy\arcpy\management.py", line 1943, in CopyFeatures
raise e
AttributeError: <unprintable AttributeError object>

where

>>> polygon
<Polygon object at 0xf34f550[0x347d9e0]>
>>> ShapeFile_prj
'F:\\vector\\Biboohra_Koah\\25cm\\TPE0_330000_8135000_1k_cont.shp'
>>>

My full script is attached. This should work on any directory with ESRI readable vector files.

best,

I can't imagine the space being a problem, but it's worth trying. I would think if the tool truly didn't exist, it would have failed at the top while you were trying to import it.

yoanndrocourt

ok, that is becoming clrearer now...
so it seems that it doesn't find the toolbox right?
but I am importing it...don't really know what I can do...I was wondering if the space in the nam eof the toolbox could cause this to happen.

An unknown error occurred:
F:\front\trash\test.py:41: DeprecationWarning: BaseException.message has been deprecated as of Python 2.6
logger.error(ErrorDesc.message)
Object: Tool or environment <????????????????????> not found

My fault, I'm used to working in more complex environments. Take out the loggers and use print statements to send the errors to the screen:

    try:
        print("Place code here")

    except arcpy.ExecuteError:
        Errors = "TRUE"
        print("An error occurred during geoprocessing:")
        print(arcpy.GetMessages(2))
    except Exception as ErrorDesc:
        Errors = "TRUE"
        print("An unknown error occurred:")
        print(ErrorDesc.message)

yoanndrocourt

this is the error I get....
doesn't speak much to me...but it says module...could be something doing with the toolboxe?

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python26\ArcGIS10.0\Lib\site-packages\pythonwin\pywin\framework\scriptutils.py", line 312, in RunScript
exec codeObject in __main__.__dict__
File "F:\front\trash\test.py", line 40, in <module>
logger.error("An unknown error occurred:")
NameError: name 'logger' is not defined

ChristopherStorer

To accurately catch the error, you will need to put your code in a try/catch loop and interpret the error; otherwise, you will always get generic errors like this when you run code. Try the following (make sure you indent properly):

    try:
        print("Place code here")

    except arcpy.ExecuteError:
        Errors = "TRUE"
        logger.error("An error occurred during geoprocessing:")
        logger.error(arcpy.GetMessages(2))
    except Exception as ErrorDesc:
        Errors = "TRUE"
        logger.error("An unknown error occurred:")
        logger.error(ErrorDesc.message)

Let us know what error you get from this, and we can proceed from there.

yoanndrocourt

could it be because of the space in the folder name "sample tools"
in this case what to do since when your rename it replacing the space by un underscore the tools doesn't woprk anymore?

yoanndrocourt

Hi every one,
I do have the same problem and I don't know where it comes from...
any suggestion?

Hi David,

Would it be possible to give, if not a full traceback, then at least the code snippet that was causing the error your student was describing? I've come across this problem in a couple of different contexts, from what I recall, so a bit of context could go a long way 🙂

Cheers,

DavidAllen

Can you paste a full traceback?

Did you find a solution? One of my students asked me to help solve this, and I'd look like the hero if I can come up with the answer (or if y'all did and I can steal it!).

JasonScheirer

Can you paste a full traceback?

Marion_CountyAuditor

We got the same error as well - still looking for a solution.....

MelissaDoyle

we are having the same problem after upgrading to ArcGIS 10 - did you find a solution?
