Model only works in ModelBuilder window

AgataZurek

I made a model that creates a feature class, adds some fields and then enables editor tracking. I can get it to work in the ModelBuilder window but not by double clicking/opening it from the toolbox. The error I get is 000110: <target feature class> does not exist. The first two parts work just fine, it creates a feature class and adds the fields, but it comes up with that error when I include "enable editor tracking" in the model. I modified it to use the first part as a tool to chain the second part to, but I get the same error message. Please see pictures of my model for details.

I found a similar problem here: ArcGIS ModelBuilder model works in Edit windows but not from the "open" window - do you have any experience or advice? -…  but the solution did not work for me.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

I fixed my own problem by converting the model to python and adding in a line that refreshes the catalog. Code and line that fixed it in bold near bottom. I set one parameter to name: 'Select Geodatabase' type: 'workspace'. I also made sure the output feature class was using the selected geodatabse with the feature class name I wanted to use.

# Import arcpy module
import arcpy

# Script arguments
Select_Geodatabase = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(0)

# Local variables:
Feature_Class_Name = "Geofeatures_points_SCL"
Geometry_Type = "POINT"
Coordinate_System = "PROJCS['NAD_1983_UTM_Zone_11N',GEOGCS['GCS_North_American_1983',DATUM['D_North_American_1983',SPHEROID['GRS_1980',6378137.0,298.257222101]],PRIMEM['Greenwich',0.0],UNIT['Degree',0.0174532925199433]],PROJECTION['Transverse_Mercator'],PARAMETER['False_Easting',500000.0],PARAMETER['False_Northing',0.0],PARAMETER['Central_Meridian',-117.0],PARAMETER['Scale_Factor',0.9996],PARAMETER['Latitude_Of_Origin',0.0],UNIT['Meter',1.0]];-5120900 -9998100 10000;-100000 10000;-100000 10000;0.001;0.001;0.001;IsHighPrecision"
Output_Feature_Class = Select_Geodatabase + "\" + Feature_Class_Name
Output_Feature_Class__2_ = Output_Feature_Class
Output_Feature_Class__3_ = Output_Feature_Class__2_
Output_Feature_Class__4_ = Output_Feature_Class__3_
Geofeatures_points_SCL = Output_Feature_Class__4_
