"Data Model is checked out by another application" message

Hi,

I'm using the Web Configuration tool in WSMP 5. I'm attempting to start an editing session. But everytime I hit the start button, I get the message "Data Model is checked out by another application" "Please wait and try again later". I'm not sure how to check what else is using it. I've tried restarting services, even the server, but to no avail.

A point worth noting is that the first time I tried this I didn't get that message, but rather the operation was terminated by an error of some kind. Annoyingly I didn't keep the details of the error, but instead tried it again and got this new message. I wonder if something got half done...?

Hi ,

this message comes , when datamodel is being used by another application like application designer,
login to application designer and check whether datamodel is in draft or non draft mode, if its in draft mode, change data model status.

if its not works, that means datamodel is locked. run this command from command prompt

c:/your mpserverpath/imdatamodelloader.exe clearkey -c your cluster name -u userid -p password -n lib name

run this command, this utility will free your daytamodel

Hi there,

Thanks for that. Yes this worked (although the exe was called datamodelloader and not imdatamodelloader!)

Another point to note is that if you specify an incorrect user name or password, you get no feedback at all - either on the command line or in the logs. It looks as though it's worked but it obviously hasn't.

Thanks again
