How to change the output feature class

Mikhail

I have two shapefiles, one is polygons, representing geographic areas, and the other is the road network. I want to use Summarize Within tool to summarize the total mileage of roads by the polygon. As soon as I select the layers in the tool's menu, the system automatically creates a name for the output file with the extension of 'shp'. See the picture attached. It also shows an error message: Error 003396 Tool output can only be written to a filegeodatabase(.gdb), datastore (.sde), or in_memory. The problem is that I can not change it! I type in another name like output.gdb and press enter, but the system ignores this. Could you suggest a way to deal with this issue?

click on the folder icon to the right of the Output featureclass line

navigate to a geodatabase and select it

enter a name without a file extension.

The only solution I've found to this so far was courtesy of this Reddit page : https://www.reddit.com/r/ArcGIS/comments/v93yaz/comment/ibua2tq/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

"I just dealt with this error. This tool is super sensitive to filename and filepath length. I was able to fix it (most of the time) by creating a gdb right in my C:/ folder and pointing the output there. Use a one letter filename if possible. I also set the scratch gdb to that same gdb. This was in a python script environment not using the tool in pro but should be the same."- Kingstoncoooer

I am running into the same error:

Ive tried opening the folder icon deleting "shp" and choosing GDB but the only option is feature classes. As soon as I select that (because its my only option) it populates as shp again... not sure what the work around is here.^ i drew gbd but meant to write gdb

Thanks for any other tips

Great, thanks! Problem solved.

One thing I see that will prevent the tool from working properly is you have pending edits. Click the save icon top of the tool and try to run it again. Dan is right on clicking the folder on the right and defining either a geodatabase as the container for the feature class or a folder for the shapefile.
