Workaround

1. For the tool in ArcMap, change the merge rule to something other than Join or remove either FuelLine_Test.ACCURACY or StormLine_Test.ACCURACY from the field map.2. In Python for the tool, add an if statement to test for a repeat of the field map or use something other than the Join merge rule. An example of an if statement is: if nextTuple not in in_out_fld_list: if infield == outfield: continue else: in_out_fld_list.append(nextTuple) else: #this combination of infield and outfield already mapped continue
