I am just learning ArcGIS 10.2 and it was working well until I tried to use the Export to a Geodatabase (single) option for a dbs table I made. Since then, it seems I now get the same Script Error for import/export functions. However, I just tried to export to Geodatabase (multiple) and error did not pop up. I spoke with tech support and they could not help me so far. I really do not know much about GIS so it is hard for me to fix this problem and cannot proceed with some things.

  • Are you doing this through the GUI or by script. Is the exact script error "script error invalid pointer"?

    There should be more to it than that... are you using 64bit background processing? That can give funny errors like this, perhaps turn it off (more about it here resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/index.html#/…). It is also possible that the error is 'in the past' so consider clearing your geoprocessing history (more here gis.stackexchange.com/questions/131405/…)

  • I have done it through ArcMap and ArcCatalog. Both ways it does it. That is the actual message. Title is Script Error, then says Line 63 then Char 4 then Error: Invalid Pointer then next line says Code 0

I just solved this problem. What you need to do is the following: In Windows go to: Control Panel -> Programs -> Uninstall a program.

Then right click on "ArcGIS for Desktop" -> Select "Uninstall/change".

The ArcGIS Setup dialog will pop up. Chose the "Repair" option.

After finishing the Repair procedures the ArcGIS will be working properly!

I resolved this error by repairing the data interop. installation. I also have background processing turned off.
