Versioned Data, multiple UpdateCursors, RuntimeError: The requested operation is invalid on a closed state

EvanMyers1 — Fri, 02 Apr 2021 21:02:42 GMT

Hello everyone,

I am getting the following error after running my script:

The script runs fine when I am not in a version but once I change it to a version, it breaks after the first UpdateCursor. Note: the imported "cursors" module is from this post: https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/the-requested-operation-is-invalid-on-a-closed-state/m-p/343774

DavidPike — Fri, 02 Apr 2021 21:08:05 GMT

you tried the stopediting(true) then starting editing again as per the post? I have seen some issues using the 'with' statement also, perhaps try the cursors without that. unaware of the cursors module bit will have a look.

Re: Versioned Data, multiple UpdateCursors, RuntimeError: The requested operation is invalid on a closed state

JoeBorgione — Fri, 02 Apr 2021 22:00:26 GMT

I'm not familiar with importing the cursors module. Instead I suggest you use the da.UpdateCursor.

When editing an enterprise geodatabase (aka SDE), you need to start an edit session and close it it as well:

ws = r'X:\some\path\to\your\enterprise.gdb' edit = arcpy.da.Editor(ws) edit.startEditing(False,False) #see the documentation on the parameters edit.startOperation() with arcpy.da.UpdateCursor(blah, blah bla) as cursor: for row in cursor: blah blah blah cursor.updateRow(row) edit.stopOperation() edit.stopEditing(True)

@DavidPike , using 'with' in any da cursor is traditionally the way to go; I've used that approach hundreds of times without an issue...

Re: Versioned Data, multiple UpdateCursors, RuntimeError: The requested operation is invalid on a closed state

DavidPike — Sat, 03 Apr 2021 11:30:12 GMT

Sure, I just remember seeing something about it before rather than from experience. More of a lead or something to try at least. When you bring in enterprise GDBs into the equation, this may be an underlying database you've not dealt with before. Although you'd hope the SDE interactions would be the same across all of them, Esri isn't without its 'quirks' surely?

So maybe I am misunderstanding something about edit sessions within functions. Right now I tried testing it like this but I now get this error:

def calcNorthing():

    try:
        #  calculate northing
        edit.startEditing(False, True)
        edit.startOperation()
        if 'Northing' not in lstFields:
            arcpy.AddField_management(userInput, "Northing", "DOUBLE")

        print("Calculating Northing Field")
        arcpy.AddMessage("Calculating Northing Field")

        with arcpy.da.UpdateCursor(userInput, ['Northing', 'Shape@'], "Northing IS NULL") as cursor:
            for row in cursor:
                if row[1] is not None:
                    pt = row[1].projectAs('2236').centroid

        arcpy.AddMessage("Completed Northing calculation")

        edit.stopOperation()

    edit = arcpy.da.Editor(workspace)

Re: Versioned Data, multiple UpdateCursors, RuntimeError: The requested operation is invalid on a closed state

JoeBorgione — Mon, 05 Apr 2021 14:24:18 GMT

The only thing I can think of is perhaps make your edit calls outside of the try/except block:

def calcNorthing(): edit.StartEditing(False,True) edit.startOperation() try: do your thing except: trap the exception edit.stopOperation() edit.stopEditing(True)

You could also check the edit status in main() to be sure if it's stopped or not before making the call to your function.

Take a look at this too..

So after moving my edit start and stop sessions to every conceivable combination, I decided to take a look at the custom cursor module again since it starts and stops for me. After some research, I found some changes to the cursor module. Well, lo and behold, I got my code working again.

Thanks all for your help!
