Action Plan
This issue occurs when for a given UA profile, there are inconsistencies between the metamodel in the local database and the one defined in the metamodel file that is defined in your <CAST_ALL_USERS_PATH>/<CAST_VERSION>/Configuration/languages/

- Check for all the UA languages that are in your <CAST_ALL_USERS_PATH>/
that the metamodel file number is in sync with the Metamodel id range in the local database: Open the metamodel file.
Retrieve from the line Metamodel the file_no field as shown in the below example.
In the above example, the file\_no is set to 4
- For this given example, the ID range will be between 1004000 and 1004999 :
- Run the query described in the page How to retrieve the id and the name of all types of a UA language to retrieve the ID of the Type of the given UA / Extension Profile

- If the ID range is not as per the metamodel expectation, it means that the metamodel file has changed.
- The solution is to retrieve the metamodel file that had been used to create the metamodel in the local database.
- If the metamodel for all the UA profiles are in sync with the metamodel in the local database:
- Check if there is no conflict between a profile that is in the extension folder and the <CAST_ALL_USERS_PATH>/<CAST_VERSION>/Configuration/languages/
- Check if there is no conflict between a profile that is in the extension folder and the <CAST_ALL_USERS_PATH>/<CAST_VERSION>/Configuration/languages/
- If the above points do not help you, contact CAST Technical Support and provide the Relevant input
