Troubles creating table definition in new repositiory

Question

hi there,
we installed a designer 6i repositiory on a linux 8.1.7.2 ee server database, all worked fine. installation of the same repositiory version under on a windows 2000 pro system with a 8.1.7.4 ee server database works fine, too. but when trying to create objects in the windows repos we keep getting errors concerning non existing repository objects. example: attempting to create a relational table definition fail with the following stack trace:

any help appreciated,

Hi,
Actually the errors thrown here are not exactly non-existing database objects.These are Table and API definitions of the repository which are used when you create Database objects.
You can try by checking if there are any invalid objects in the repository(Compile them first if there are any)and can give it a shot after running a full reconcile of the repository.
If still the problem persists, can you give the details about which Designer Version you are using.
