Error message when archiving PDM plan

Hello

I have a problem that I have never encountered since I use pdm, when requesting archiving from the 3D file I get an error message on the drawing (cf capture), if I ask for archiving from the plan file everything is ok.

Has anyone ever encountered this problem

Thanks in advance

Hello

The error message for the plan could not be clearer, there is already a file with the same name with the same extension in the EPDM vault.

It is a configuration of the vault, to allow or not files with the same name depending on the categories to which they belong. Generally duplicate files are forbidden for CAD files, but allowed for other types of files (PDF, XLS, etc.).

Thank you Pierre but unfortunately it's not this problem, it probably comes from a parameter that I can't find at the moment because when connecting to pdm with the account of one of my colleagues this error message is not displayed, the user and group settings are the same.

And as for duplicates, they are set to unauthorized.

Hello

Never had this problem. What could happen is that a user tries to create the same file and that at the time of the launch of the archiving via the 3D it existed ("private state" which are only visible if the parameter is activated).

After all, it can simply be a transient bug, SolidWorks PDM is not exempt from it.

Damm even I am having a similar kind of issue, I have searched all over the internet and even have posted on number of threads on different forum, no solution seems to work. I am really frustrated, can anyone of you here help me resolve this issue, I am very much tired now. get-vidmate.com instasave

There may also be a file that has been deleted and had the same name (deletion is often only virtual: EPDM keeps a copy of the deleted files and allows them to be restored if necessary). From memory, this can generate this kind of problem.
