Cannot Create address locator
I am trying to create an address locator that I had created in versions before 10. First, I tried rebuilding my original address locator from 9.3.1 & ArcToolbox crashed. I deleted it & just tried to create a new one in ArcToolbox 10, but it will not. Now Im up the creek with out a geocoder.
I am using a "US Address - Single house" style. I need to do address searches & geocode addresses based on dbf created by my organization
My reference data is a point shapefile for my address points & Im using it as a primary table. The data looks like this for example:
Example: 255 N Cimmaron Rd W
Where:
255 = House Number
N = Prefix direction
Cimmaron = Street Name
Rd = Suffix Type
W = Suffix Direction
This is how it looks as far as data fields are titled:
255 = House Number = STNUM
N = Prefix direction = STDIR
Cimmaron = Street Name = STNAME
Rd = Suffix Type = STTYPE
W = Suffix Direction = STSUFFIX
I do not need CITY or ZIP or STATE as I am in a place that is within one city name, Zip, & state.
This is how I would go about creating address locators in previous ArcToolbox versions & always had success.
When I try, it wont work & the box pops up to send an error report.
Here is the python error msg:
arcpyCreateAddressLocator_geocoding("US Address - Single House","//Volgis/gis/Basemap/address_points.shp 'Primary Table'","'Feature ID' FID VISIBLE NONE;'*House Number' STNUM VISIBLE NONE;'Prefix Direction' STPREFIX VISIBLE NONE;'Prefix Type' <None> VISIBLE NONE;'*Street Name' STNAME VISIBLE NONE;'Suffix Type' STTYPE VISIBLE NONE;'Suffix Direction' STSUFFIX VISIBLE NONE;'City or Place' <None> VISIBLE NONE;'ZIP Code' <None> VISIBLE NONE;State <None> VISIBLE NONE;'Additional Field' <None> VISIBLE NONE;'Altname JoinID' <None> VISIBLE NONE","//Volgis/gis/Basemap/address_points_CreateAddress")
Im not sure what's going on but I need to resolve this because no users can search for addresses. I tried creating it in with different names & different file locations with no luck. I know it's has to be something simple.
Thanks in advance!
