Object with the same name already exists in the database

Error Message

The Schema Wizard stops with a message:

Object with the same name already exists in the database: Buildings

Where 'Buildings' is the name of a feature class in the UML model.

Cause

Feature classes owned by the same user must have unique names in the geodatabase, even if they belong to different feature datasets.

The Schema Wizard will not be able to create a feature class if the name is already used by an existing feature class.

This may occur when the UML model is reapplied and the existing feature class is of a different feature type.
