EA Error message

[ea1005]

Hello,

I have EA Enterprise Edition, and my project file is located at a Samba file-system.
EA find object engine is not working. I get the error message: "DAO.Database [3197] The Microsoft Jet database engine stopped the proccess because you and another user are attempting to change the same data at the same time"
I copyed the file to my local file-system with no sharing, and I get the same error.
What to do to fix this problem?
Any help will be welcome.

Do you mean the Corporate Edition?

If so, there was a similar discussion earlier this month. Do a search in the forum - you may have to try several keywords (I cannot remember what we called the thread just now, and do not have time to look it up for you).

Check to see what sharing options you have on the .EAP file. If you don't have the correct options set then Jet might open the file in the wrong sharing mode, even if it is local to your computer.

I confirm: My licencing is EA Professional Edition, and my user ID is ea1005. I bought the sw on 20-10-2005.

The other thread was:

I don't know if this was resolved.

I suggest you immediately issue a bug report on this, and include the above link as well. If Sparx has solved this problem they should be able to give you the solution.

Also check for a solution in the next build. New builds seem to be coming out monthly these days, and the next is likely to be sometime this week.

HTH,
David

Hi,

It appears that there is some corruption in the database (eap file). If you open the eap file in Access, view the data in table t_operation, you will notice some records with '#Error' in the Notes field. See for example, OperationID 171 to 177.
Converting the file to Access 2000 format replaces these errors with a string of hashes '##############'. Change the .mdb extension to .eap, and the model can be opened after setting the Jet 4 option (Tools | Options | Use Jet 4).

This resolution was provided to me by sparxsupport team.
