Error while in edit session

[jaykapalczynski]

I have a python script that has been working fine for some time.

I added a table and a relationship class to my database connecting to the Feature Class I was updating.....and now the python script is complaining that it cannot add outside an edit session.

My python script accepts a json string that can have multiple updates or just 1

I added some Start Edit and Stop Edit code and its still not working and giving me another error

If I modify my edit string to this to include the Feature Class that has the relationship class 

edit = arcpy.da.Editor(r"E:/ArcGISProjects/CountySelection/cccc.sde/MultiPartPoly")

I get this error

I change the second argument to False but will not go....

This is not versioned data

It is a Feature Class with a relationship Class to a table

# Edit session is started without an undo/redo stack for versioned data
# (for second argument, use False for unversioned data)
edit.startEditing(False, False)‍‍‍

I think I got it working.....maybe a refresh or reopening of ArcCatalog?????

Testing now so hold on...thin it worked two times

    workspace = r"E:/ArcGISProjects/CountySelection/cccc.sde"
    edit = arcpy.da.Editor(workspace)
    # Edit session is started without an undo/redo stack for versioned data
    #  (for second argument, use False for unversioned data)
    edit.startEditing(False, False)
    print "edit started"
    # Create update cursor
    with arcpy.da.InsertCursor(inputFeatureclass, ['SHAPE@', 'ADDRESSgeocode', 'DISTANCEparameter', 'UNIQUEIDparameter', 'COUNTYLIST', 'NWTLID']) as cursor:
        # Start an edit operation
        edit.startOperation()
        # Perform edits
        ## CREATE THE NEW MULTI PART POLYGON IN THE FC
        cursor.insertRow([geometries[0], searchAddress, searchDistance, searchid, txt_list, validGuid])
        ## Delete cursor object
        del cursor

    # Stop the edit operation.
    edit.stopOperation()
    # Stop the edit session and save the changes
    edit.stopEditing(True)
    print "edit ended"‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍
