Title: Transformer fatal error
Post by: Dev1975 on 19 Feb 2014 05:30:29 AM
Hello all,

Still getting problems with Transformer. Customer is trying to build a cube and is getting the following message box:

Transformer fatal error!
Cannot load the repository file - corrupt id.

Have done some Googling but not found anything (doesn't seem to be a lot of info available). Anyone else come across this before? Anyone know a good place to start looking?

Many thanks,
Dev

OK, looks like we may have resolved it. We opened the original MDL file, saved it as a PYJ and replaced the failing PYJ file. This is now building without issue.

Thought I'd follow up in case anyone else has the same problem.

Oh! I just saw this. Model corruption is often sorted by saving as MDL then re-saving as the binary PYJ format. You may find you need to re-generate your categories afterwards though.

Thanks for the update - much appreciated!
