EA project suddenly turned readonly
« on: July 01, 2016, 07:00:59 pm »
Hi guys,

The strangest thing happened today. One of our EA projects turned readonly, i.e. we cannot update anything, even with administrator priviliges. All other projects work as normal.
EA Client 12.1 talking to a MySql database via EA Cloud. Restarted MySql server, but it did not help. The are no locks visible in EA (from Project/Security/Manage Locks), but if I write a program that tries to update an element, it fails and the exception says Element is locked. Trying Release User Lock on packages and elements does not help.

Has anybody experiences something similar?

cheers
Knut

FWIW: I found working with RULtE much more meaningful than not being set.

I agree, all of my clients work that way.
