This article describes some error messages related to items and parts and provides suggestions for how to resolve them.


I am getting an error when trying to add a part. 


Example Error Message

Invalid ref object in part. 


Resolution

Contact your system's SystemWeaver Architect as this is an indication that there a problem with the part's RefObj in the meta model.

I am getting "Access Denied" when I try to complete an operation.


Error message 

Example

Access Denied:

on part: Front Seat Heating(x150000000C0AF301) of type Realizes Generic Function in item: S-46-01 Front Seat Heating(x040000000C0AF2FE) of type Sub Function.


Resolution

The message "Access denied" means that the operation you tried to do was not accepted by the SystemWeaver server, due to some access constraint. The situation usually happens in an operation where the application cannot figure out exactly what was wrong with the requested operation. To solve this problem, investigate your access right to the involved item(s), for example in the Overview view. Make sure that the Access status is Read/Write and that the item is not Frozen or Released.


If the item is in Work status, it might be the case that you do not have write rights to the item, according to the Library used for managing access rights of the item.


Error message 

Example

Access Denied:

You do not have write access in library 'XXXX'.


Resolution

The error message indicates that you don't have the needed access to the library to perform the operation. Contact your SystemWeaver administrator or the owner of the library directly, who should be able to provide you access if authorized.
