Pivot Operator - "potential problem detected: attribute missing" after Select Attributes

Hi Ina,

propably this is just an issue with the meta data propagation. Isn't there a button to just let it run anyway?

Otherwise I would recommend to switch the metadata propagation to real data by using Process->Synchronize Data with Real Data.

Best,

Martin

Hello,

I encounter a problem with attribute recognition with one of the operators. The example set needs to be streamed, since the amount of data is very big (> 30 mio. examples with corporate license and RM Server).

To test and work on the process locally I used a small subset of 10000 rows with the Read Database operator.

Whenever I use Read Database with a subset of 10000 examples - everything is fine.

Whenever I incorporate Stream Database I encounter a 'Potential problem detected' The Pivot operator doesnt recognize one of the crucial fields (an ID-Field which identifies the examples).

The code with Stream DB:

I synchronized the meta data with real data as you suggested recently.. Unfortunately it didnt help.

I am trying to avoid to let it run anyway is because I need to know if this is the reason why the processing takes so long. The process loads up to 16 hours, not coming to an end and getting stuck in the Pivot operator. I really would like to know why this potential problem notification appears and how to solve it. Because now it seems that not only the TBLUNIQUELRU_ID is missing in the input example but the attribute BITID as well.

Or could you explain to me what the issue with the meta data propagation is about?

Advices are really appreciated.

Kind regards!
