error Only one customization allowed at a time

[jaustill]

Macola Progression 7.7.100 running on a mssql 2000 server with ICR version 11

I am getting an error "Only one customization allowed at a time" in Designer. No one else is using designer and the error occurs even after exiting and re-entering Macola. I do not think I have used Designer since installing the Prog77100UH.EXE Unified Hot Topic Installer. (which may have caused the problem)

Is anyone else seeing this error? Any thoughts on what could cause it?

Jere,

What screen are you in? Are you opening this screen first then clicking on the designer icon or are you going straight to system manager->maintain->designer?

I would try to clear all phantom users from the macsql\users directory.

Also look for any files with the extension .mut in the data folder. Rename the extension and try it again. Let me know what you find.

Solved, Thanks

I was in system manager->maintain->designer

I deleted the .mut file in the data folder and I was able to use designer. I noticed that the program is creating and then deleteing the .mut file when I start and then exit designer.

Good post DGillz,
new extention to look out for.
I have run into this issue before at different versions and would have to completely exit designer and then get back in before opening an other screen design.
Thanks
