Error trying to Register as Versioned (Merged threads)

Lebowski — Tue, 20 May 2014 17:46:43 GMT

I am having troubling getting my database to register as 'Versioned." I added a feature class to the feature dataset but ended up having to delete it now I can not re-register the feature class as versioned, any thoughts?

Desktop Version 10.1, WIndows 7

How did you drop the previous table? With ArcGIS or from the database?

I deleted it from the database/feature dataset in ArcCatalog by right-clicking the feature class and selecting 'Delete.' Is that the correct way?

This is the message I receive in ArcMap when I try to start editing.

I deleted the feature class(es) from the database/feature dataset in ArcCatalog by right-clicking the feature class and selecting 'Delete.' Is that the correct way?

Need some clarifications:

1. Was the Feature dataset already Versioned before you added the new FC(s)?

2. Did you Register as Versioned the dataset after adding the new FC(s)?

Sounds very basic, but close all the interfaces. reopen and then try the process...

This is the message I receive in ArcMap when I try to start editing.

This error usually points to a permission issue.

Try to add the entire Feature dataset in a new ArcMap session and try to start editing. let us know if you receive any errors in this process.

1. Yes the feature dataset was already versioned before adding the new feature class(es)

2. No I did not register as versioned prior to adding the new feature class(es), it was already versioned. I did however try to Version once I created the feature class(es). The problem occurred when I deleted the newly created feature class(es), I am now unable to preform any edits and cannot reconcile.

I have closed and open ArcMap & ArcCatalog several times, it did not solve the problem. The database lives on my supervisors machine and that has not been rebooted yet.

I just tried editing in a new ArcMap session still getting the same error

Do you have a map service using the SDE database?

I think a reboot of the server may be the best thing to try? I would probably export / backup any data that I didn't want to lose from recent edits.

How many people have access to the specific DB?

Also, you stated in your initial post that

I can not re-register the feature class as versioned, any thoughts?

I assume that you meant the feature dataset, right?

If ArcCatalog closes prematurely while deleting or creating a feature class, it can leave orphaned entries in the SDE repository tables.

Check the GDB_Items table at the database end and under the column tables, check if you see the deleted FCs listed there..

Well we just rebooted the server and that didn't work either:/ Spoke with my boss and she seems to think it has to do with the error found in the attached screen capture.

3 people have access but the problem is I cannot reconcile because it will not let me edit and/or register as version.

Just to be clear the dataset was intially registered as versioned it is when I created a new feature class and then deleted that the problem occurred.

Some other things to check:

1. the existing data in the dataset...are they all versioned? (Check the properties of each FC-->general tab)

2. Copy/paste that dataset in the same gdb and check if you are able to edit that (don't delete the existing one yet)

3. Are you trying the editing as the data_owner or any other user?
