Iterator in pro doesn't iterate - produces 000229

[Anonymous User]

I have a model which contains an iterator.

The iterator reads from a network drive and outputs to a local location.

The local folder is defined as an inline variable, such as %localFolder%.

The output filename is defined as %Name%.

So in iterator it is %Folder%\%Name%

When I run the model it always runs the first tool (clip). The second tool casts a 000229, saying that it cannot open the file.

However the file exists in the proper location, with the right filename. I can import the file, it looks correct.

However the file is displayed as "FeatureClass".

I tried importing working models from ArcGIS basic, and rebuilding models.

As far as I can tell from the documentation there is no significant revisions in model builder, so I probabaly missedd something.

Hope someone solved this problem.

that error has many sources, sometimes it is due to having 'background geoprocessing' enabled

Thanks for the input.

I don't see how this should have any effect on iterator in ArcGIS Pro. You can't disable background geoprocessing in Pro as far as i know.

missed the pro... just saw it was in mapping and charting

The message says that it cannot open "C:\testmappe\Test3OS\BeskyttedeStenJorddigerclip". But in what format is it?. Isn't there an extension (.shp) missing? Could you check if a file with that name exists in that folder. I see that it is created siccesfully in the clip before, but I think this might have created a shapefile called C:\testmappe\Test3OS\BeskyttedeStenJorddigerclip.shp

Thank you. That did the trick.

I appended .shp. So that the output of every tool is now %FTNtest%\%Name%.shp.

However.... In Contents (on the map) the feature classes are displayed as the inline variable name...
