Problem Description

After running loadbuilder I get a message that says "The layer <Layer_Name> could not be opened."

Reason

This seems to happen when Loadbuilder cannot open a geodatabase feature class.

Steps to Resolve

These are some ideas to try to resolve the issue.

Try exporting the feature class to a shapefile

You will need ArcMap installed in order to be able to do this.

  1. Add the feature class to the table of contents

  2. Right click on the feature class and choose Data >  Export Data
