000317: <value> cannot be deleted.

Description

The dataset cannot be deleted. Common causes include the following:

  • The coverage is locked by another application.
  • File permissions are set on some or all the files that compose the coverage.

Solution

If other applications are accessing the same coverage, close them or close and refresh the workspace, as locks are applied when data is read. Also review the file permissions for the coverage folder and its files and reset them if necessary.
