Unable to add objects

All,

I have been using doors for a few years.  My company is on DOORS 8.2.  We had a problem where the database had to be rebuilt.  Now, I cannot seem to add any new objects, any ideas?  My troubleshooting consists of: ensuring I am in exclusive edit, ensuring all locks are removed, ensuring I have full access to the module.  Will the database hit a limit where it will not allow you add new objects or is this some other permissions problem?  Thanks for the help.

can the actual "Administrator" account create an object? If he can, that will likely say it is a permissions issue.

• Turn off sorting and filtering.  If those are on, the concepts of "below" and "after" lose some meaning and its hard to tell where the new object will be created; so they disallow it.
• Also, NOBODY even the Administrator can change data in a read-only imported partition nor in a write exported partition.

If neither of the above works, we can probably figure out how to turn off the internal "partition Masks" for each thing (Proejct, Folder, Module, AddrDef, bla bla bla) and hope that resolves it.

So the question is, how are you "recreating" your database?

IIRC, I figured the maximum object number in each module was some 250billion, give or take 200billion or more.  The best way to reach that is to use voodoo to edit a particular file in the module's database, stating the highest number used so far.

Now lets hope some very clever person figures out the highest number allowed in an unsigned 16 digit hex number; that being the "UniqueIdentifier" for the object.
