Cannot delete feature class from geodatabase

[AnthonyPodesto]

Good Morning.

 I just upgraded to ArcGIS Pro v.3.1 yesterday.  Now, when I try to delete a feature class from my geodatabase, the moving bar with "deleting" sits endlessly.  The only way to do anything is to force close the program, reopen Arc, try again, and get the same result.  Is anybody else having problems with the new version of Arc GIS Pro or have any possible solutions to the problem?

Is this in a file (fGDB) or Enterprise Geodatabase (EGDB)?

If an EGDB, what is the RDBMS and version?

Hi George, it is a file geodatabase.

This must have been an intermittent issue.  After about two hours, it randomly started working again.

Appreciate the update and glad to hear that it is working now. Network gremlins are always fun!

Hi 

I am experiencing the issue of not being able to delete a feature class or dataset from a geodatabase. I am using ArcGIS 3.3.1 and its a file geodatabase. These are new feature classes with no links created. They are not open in any projects.

When I delete the feature class I get message 'your application has stopped working' and then the program shuts down. When I open ArcGIS Pro and navigate to the geodatabase the feature class is still there.

When I want to delete the feature dataset I get this Error message

"Delete item [ProcessStart]: Start Time: Tuesday, 06 August 2024 22:26:51
Delete item [Error]: ERROR 000317: F:\GISProducts\RegionWestFireMappingTraining\FolderStructureToTransferToUDP\UDP_Fire\OnSever\Fire\FireMappingTemplate_asof2023\FolderStructureToUse Annually\Year\9_Geodatabase\MDP_Comp_Asof2023.gdb\MasterfileFeatureDatasets cannot be deleted

Delete item [Error]: Failed to execute (Delete).

Appreciate any advise

Hi 

It would seem I have had same experience as Anthony Podesto. This morning I attempted to delete feature dataset and worked like a charm.
