Convert shapefile to SDE

Wan_NurAkmal — Thu, 22 Dec 2011 05:36:35 GMT

I've tested function ConvertShapefileToFeatureClass() which converts dedicated shapefile to gdb (file geodatabase) and it works very well. As a result of this function, the shapefile were converted into feature class in the file geodatabase.

Now, I want to save the converted shapefile into SDE database (in SQL server). I use the same function and modify the 'targetWsPath' to SDE connection.

Unfortunately an error occured, 'create output feature class failed'.

here i attach my code and the error. really appreciate if someone can tell me what's happening 😞
