Greetings. I am working with ArcMap 10.5 and having this same issue. I have not upgrade my system to the latest version due to our ArcReader Integration. I am having no luck copying my working GDB on my local C-Drive to our network that is backed-up on a nightly basis. Wanted to see if you have any follow-up on this from your experience? Thank You

Wanted to follow-up with this. I am having this same issue and starting to get really frustrated with this error. My Starting Points and Barriers path to the GDB and Utility Network is just fine. I have gone thru and Disabled the Topology and enabled it back again. One of the contributing factors that this is happening is when I append a large amount of new data and then try to trace the network to update the subnetwork. This is when I have been getting this error. I have duplicated the error multiple times after going back to restoring the GDB from one of my back-up copies. Any ideas????

I went thru and disabled the Network Topology and then went back and enabled it, it that seemed to resolve the problem.

I had one final question that is puzzling me and I believe, I hope, this should lead me further to the final product. When I run a downstream trace of a subnetwork trace, the low voltage service(s) are not selected, which means I am unable to pick them up in the trace or connect them to the subnetwork(s). Is there a setting or definition that not configured properly? They are snapped to the endpoint of the low voltage conductor.

Rich: HUGE help. It is pretty much doing what I want to do. However, if I wanted to escalate this process and once the trace has found the first upstream device/switch, how could I program the trace to find the next device/switch after that. The purpose is if we run a trace and unable to operate the first device, would want to know what the 2nd device could be to operate, if need to be. Example: First device is an Medium Voltage Fuse - Overhead Cutout Fused Switch. BUT, we also want to know what the Medium Voltage Switch - Overhead Three Phase Disconnect switch is upstream of that fuse. Thank You

Thank you for the info. I am close to my goal. I have it set up in the Filter Barriers to stop at a specific Device Asset Group. However, how do I select to specify an Asset Type? In the Name drop-down, it doesn't give me an option for Asset Type. The goal is Asset Group: 37 (Medium Voltage Switch) and Asset Type: 732 (Overhead Three Phase Disconnect).

I have completed importing my existing electric dataset from a file GDB into the new Electric Utility Network for ArcGIS Pro. Ive spent hours going thru and fixing errors and ensuring the connectivity model is error free. The next thing I am working on is doing specific traces on the network. One of the requests from my field crews it to have the ability to select a specific location and trace upstream to find the nearest protective device that they can operate to isolate an area. Yes, the trace feature for upstream would accomplish that. However, I want to be able to tell the trace to stop when it finds a device under Electric Device --> Medium Voltage Fuse --> Overhead Cutout Fused Disconnect (Asset Type). I have attempted to do a Trace Configuration but all my attempts are not working and unable to find any clear directions online on how to accomplish this. Appreciate any feedback

## CENTURY LINK CONTACTS - PREPARE AND PRINT STATS
print("## CENTURY LINK - JOINT USE - COUNTS ##")
fc = "C:\Users\cwafstet\Documents\GIS WORKING FILES LOCAL\ELECTRIC\MEWCo ELECTRIC SYSTEM - DATA PREP.gdb\STATS_JU_CENTURYLINK"
total = 0
fields = ['CHARGE_TYPE','FREQUENCY']
with arcpy.da.SearchCursor(fc,fields) as cursor:
for row in cursor:
total += row[1]
print "There are {} features for {}".format(row[1],row[0]) This is the python script the creates the statistics and write it to a File GDB Table. I verify the domain is added to the field within ArcCatalog. The field with the domain added is CHARGE_TYPE. When the data is printed to the Python Idle screen AND/OR the .TXT file, the code for the domain is displayed instead of the domain description. ArcCatalog: CHARGE_TYPE field showing the Domain Description .TXT exported file showing the domain code. What is circled in red, the goal is to have the domain description instead.

I have already created a series of scripts to sort thru my GDB and produce infrastructure statistics. I have developed one script to run all of the scripts and export the results to a series of .TXT files: import arcpy
import sys
import os.path
arcpy.env.transferDomains = True
orig = sys.stdout
with open(os.path.join("Z:\Operations\Maps and Records\Infrastructure Counts Stats\DATA EXPORT", "eJOINT_USE_INVENTORY.txt"), "wb") as f:
sys.stdout = f
try:
execfile("JOINT_USE_COUNTS_NEW.py", {})
finally:
sys.stdout = orig The issue I am having is when this exports the File GDB Table to a .TXT value, the domain code is exported. I need to have the domain description when the data is exported to the .TXT file. I have verified that the domain is assigned to the specific field. Thank You

BINGO!! Exactly what I was looking for and the script completes at a fraction of the time compared to my previous script(s). Appreciate your assistance.

This is a huge help. I have a follow-up question to complete my script which will make my statistics workflow be much more efficient. Here is the GDB Table that is produced: My previous script(s) would look at each individual FC that was exported to a temp GDB and "Print" the value: SC1 = arcpy.SearchCursor("Y:\\MEWCo GIS System - LOCAL\\ELECTRIC SYSTEM\\GEODATABASEs\\TempGDB.gdb\\OHPrimary10CU_Statistics")
field_name1 = 'SUM_SHAPE_Length'
for row in SC1:
print("Total Length of OH Primary Conductor(Feet) - #1/0 CU:")
print row.getValue(field_name1)
print("----------------") I still want to be able to print the values from getValue for each Conductor type to the Python Shell. Having a difficult time figuring out the code to print each value from the SUM_Shape_Length field while displaying the CONDUCTOR_TYPE attribute. The purpose of this is I have multiple python scripts composed into a batch file and the getValue that prints to the Python Shell is ALSO printed to a .TXT file. Thank you in advance

I am working on making improvements to my collection of Python scripts to produce statistical data reports on my in-service infrastructure system. Currently, I am using a file GDB with Feature Class to Feature Class AND Summary Statistics tools with SearchCursor tool to produce the counts. However, as my infrastructure grows and becomes more complex, the script is becoming less efficient. I figured out how to do a SearchCursor to give me the total counts of a point feature class per specific attribute criteria: # ALL MEWCo POLES
with arcpy.da.SearchCursor("eSUPPORT_STRUCTURE", "SHAPE@", "POLE_OWNER = 806") as cursor:
rows = {row[0] for row in cursor}
count = 0
for row in rows:
count += 1
print "MEWCo Poles: %s" % count However, what I am trying to do is take this same Cursor and use it to produce the total lengths on a polyline feature class from my existing code: # OVERHEAD CONDUCTOR COUNTS
# Process: Primary Conductor FC to Temp GDB - OH Primary #1/0 CU
arcpy.FeatureClassToFeatureClass_conversion(ePRIMARY_CONDUCTOR, TempGDB_gdb, "OHPrimary10CU", "PLACEMENT = 500 AND CONDUCTOR_TYPE = '#1/0 CU' AND LIFE_CYCLE_STATUS = 8")
# Process: Summary Statistics - OH Primary #1/0 CU
arcpy.Statistics_analysis(OHPrimary10CU, OHPrimary10CU_Stats, "Shape_Length SUM", "") I am a little stuck trying to work with a polyline FC versus a point FC. Appreciate your help

Appreciate the information Chris. I will work with our field crew(s) and foreman to start utilizing the ArcGIS Field Maps app. I just installed it on my phone and opened our electric field map and works that way our crew needs it to.

Chris: Thank you for the reply. I recently started using the New Map Viewer to create our field maps about 2 or 3 months ago. However, this issue with ArcGIS Explorer was identified by our foreman last week. Our field crew(s) mainly use ArcGIS Explorer on a company Samsung tablet or their Android phones. Do do have the ability to use the maps via Chrome/Edge/etc. I will look into converting the infrastructure fields maps back to the Map Viewer Classic to see if this will bring back the popup window functionality in ArcGIS Explorer since this is what they are comfortable with using. Additionally, I will check into the ArcGIS Field Map(s) app and work with our foreman on utilizing that. Since I am unfamiliar with ArcGIS Field Maps, is there an app via iOS and Android? Appreciate your feedback
