This tool works good on my workstation, but it does not work on some other machines
It looks like the data type is wrong for the parameter. However the data type is set to GPFeatureLayer which is a legal data type.
I do not understand why this tool is not working on all machines.....
Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 36, in getParameterInfo File "c:\program files (x86)\arcgis\desktop10.1\arcpy\arcpy\arcobjects\mixins.py", line 286, in __init__ setattr(self, attrib, attribvalue) File "c:\program files (x86)\arcgis\desktop10.1\arcpy\arcpy\arcobjects\_base.py", line 87, in _set return setattr(self._arc_object, attr_name, cval(val))ValueError: ParameterObject: Invalid input value for DataType property
Thanks for any help,
Forest
