Hello,

I do have a newbie question. I want to create a new feature class in an existing filebased geodatabase which I have connected in ArcCatalog. The filebased geodatabase is located in a server folder, which I can access via network folder share.

On creating the new feature class in the filebased geodatabase via ArcCatalog I get this error message:

"Failed to create feature class. Access denied. Access denied [GDB_SystemCatalog]"

So I wonder why I cannot write into that .gdb because:

- I do have file system write access on the .gdb's folder (on the whole network share in fact)
- I have started ArcCatalog with ArcEditor licence

What else could make me deny the write access to the file based geodatabase?

Thank you for any hint!

If you use sharing folder with GDB inside, you need on server to change sharing security for user which connects to this folder. If you not have user in this section like in image below, you can add this by click edit then click add to append your user with full control permission. OK
