Custom tool error

Hi All

As suggestions given in the blog i modified the script, But still i am getting the same error please help me

when i run the script in python editor with workspaces hardcoded like below, the code executes properly.

import arcpy

... import os

... from arcpy import env

... env.overwriteOutput = True

... env.workspace = "D:/Python DVD/Python/Data/Exercise02"

... outgdb = "D:/Data/Test1.gdb"

... print outgdb

... fclist = arcpy.ListFeatureClasses()

... for fc in fclist:

... fcdesc = arcpy.Describe(fc)

print fcdesc.baseName

print os.path.join(outgdb, fcdesc.baseName)

... arcpy.CopyFeatures_management(fc, os.path.join(outgdb, fcdesc.baseName))

But when i create custom tool using this script i am getting the error

import arcpy

import os

from arcpy import env

env.overwriteOutput = True

env.workspace = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(0)

outgdb = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(1)

print outgdb

fclist = arcpy.ListFeatureClasses()

for fc in fclist:

fcdesc = arcpy.Describe(fc)

print fcdesc.baseName

print os.path.join(outgdb, fcdesc.baseName)

arcpy.CopyFeatures_management(fc, os.path.join(outgdb, fcdesc.baseName))

Error is:

Ensure that your Geoprocessing environment is configured to allow output overwrite

This thread is in essence a duplicate of this thread Error when running custom script tool

and overwriteoutputs was suggested as well.

Respond to the suggestions in one thread as to whether they worked or not before starting a duplicate.

Could you provide more print statements in your code so people can accurately assess what your inputs and outputs are.
