Description
The field cannot be added to the input. This error can occur for several reason, including the following:
- The input is in use by another program.
- The file is a read-only data source (such as a CAD file).
- The input has read-only permissions.
- The disk is full.
- The field properties specified are not supported by the database.
- The input is a feature service and you are not the item owner.
Solution
Verify whether the feature class or table is locked by another user or is read-only. Try closing the application and running the tool again.
If the file is a read-only data source or has read-only permissions, make a copy of the data using a tool such as Copy, Copy Features or Copy Rows, and run the tool using the copy.
If the disk is full, make a copy of the data in a different location or clear some space, and try again.
If the field properties are not supported by the database, try running the tool with different parameter options. If the input was created using GeoAnalytics tools and saved to the ArcGIS Data Store of type spatiotemporal, adding fields is not supported.
If the input is a feature service and you are not the owner, contact the owner about making the changes to the feature service.
