Cannot edit modules

Hello,

when I tried to open a module in exclusive edit mode, the mode is activated and I don't get any error messages, but the objects appear with grey backgroud and it is not possible to edit them. This happens since I got an error message some days ago when running the Exchange plugin for exporting a project.

I tried to log in as administrator and run the integrity checker, as I guess is something related with an integrity problem in the database, but no errors were found.

I not really sure what to try next.

As the problem was happening only on the project I was exporting I have managed to copy the whole project and now the locks are working properly on the new copy. So it is solved for now.

This will happen with an exported partition; or an imported read-only partition.  Even the "administrator" may not make changes.  I wonder if "Exchange" uses partitions?

You got it! That was the problem. I created a ReqIf definition that locked all attributes, so DOORS was expecting me to re-import the exported module once the changes have been made.

It was solved by simply deleting the ReqIf definition associated with the project. I guess that importing the project from the exported file would have also worked.

Thank you!
