How or where do I look to see if the geodatabase license has expired? I am not well versed in the server-side admin and license management.
Our version tree is not complicated, but I too am not well-versed. sde (parent) - QA_version (child) - Edit_version (child to QA). Pattern is used for stormwater, sanitary sewer, water, planning, and IT access/editing. I can't seem to find where the rights and permissions can be modified for the child versions, aside from public, private, protected choices when creating the child version.
I have tried so many things I am struggling to keep track. I need to circle back and check the publishing error given a new FC creation as you suggest. I can't remember if I was able to create a new FC, publish it without error using another existing version, but then have it error when I create a new version. It seems to be the latter.
Thanks again for your help. We considering upgrading our Server site and our geodatabases to 10.7.1. While we want to move to Enterprise, we are not in a position to go there just yet.
