Validate Database fails when trying to create topology geodatabase

[NCGSBTT]

Had this error happen multiple times today on a database that had been validated fine yesterday. I'm not sure why the issue suddenly arose but I have tried validating with previous tool versions and get the same error. I've tried setting up the topology separate (topologically everything is fine) and it still doesn't run.

This version of the tool is up to date: GeMS_ValidateDatabase.py, version of 10/18/2023 ​ Looking at level 2 compliance Rule 2.1 - Has required elements: nonspatial tables DataSources, DescriptionOfMapUnits, GeoMaterialDict; feature dataset GeologicMap with feature classes ContactsAndFaults and MapUnitPolys Rule 2.2 - Required fields within required elements are present and correctly defined 2.3 All MapUnitPolys and ContactsAndFaults based feature classes obey Level 2 topology rules: no internal gaps or overlaps in MapUnitPolys, boundaries of MapUnitPolys are covered by ContactsAndFaults No topology found in GeologicMap Creating geodatabase for topology - G:\LR\GEO\Brennan Trantham\GeMS Stuff\FY22 Draft Deliverables\Dwain Project #8\Blank Gems File Directory\NC_2022_RaleighIsoStruc_1-1-submittal\NC_2022_RaleighIsoStruc_1-1\NC_2022_RaleighIsoStruct_1-1-database\work\Topology.gdb Traceback (most recent call last): File "\AR-NGNAS01\AR-GIS-Data\GeMS Resources\GeMS TBX\gems-tools-pro-2.12.8\gems-tools-pro-2.12.8\Scripts\GeMS_ValidateDatabase.py", line 1715, in if "DescriptionOfMapUnits" in db_dict: File "\AR-NGNAS01\AR-GIS-Data\GeMS Resources\GeMS TBX\gems-tools-pro-2.12.8\gems-tools-pro-2.12.8\Scripts\GeMS_ValidateDatabase.py", line 1462, in main cursor.deleteRow() File "\AR-NGNAS01\AR-GIS-Data\GeMS Resources\GeMS TBX\gems-tools-pro-2.12.8\gems-tools-pro-2.12.8\Scripts\GeMS_ValidateDatabase.py", line 339, in check_topology and not f.name.lower() in lower_standard File "\AR-NGNAS01\AR-GIS-Data\GeMS Resources\GeMS TBX\gems-tools-pro-2.12.8\gems-tools-pro-2.12.8\Scripts\topology.py", line 219, in make_topology gdb_path, topo_mup, topo_caf = create_fd(work_dir, gmap, sr, topo_pair, db_dict) File "\AR-NGNAS01\AR-GIS-Data\GeMS Resources\GeMS TBX\gems-tools-pro-2.12.8\gems-tools-pro-2.12.8\Scripts\topology.py", line 121, in create_fd arcpy.CreateFileGDB_management(str(work_dir), "Topology") File "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\Resources\ArcPy\arcpy\management.py", line 25915, in CreateFileGDB raise e File "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\Resources\ArcPy\arcpy\management.py", line 25912, in CreateFileGDB retval = convertArcObjectToPythonObject(gp.CreateFileGDB_management(gp_fixargs((out_folder_path, out_name, out_version), True))) File "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\Resources\ArcPy\arcpy\geoprocessing_base.py", line 512, in return lambda args: val(*gp_fixargs(args, True)) arcgisscripting.ExecuteError: ERROR 999999: Something unexpected caused the tool to fail.

Whops! missed this. Are you still seeing this error?

No worries, I figured it out. For some reason the tool wouldn’t read where the geodatabase was located. Moving it to a different path got it to work.
