You can help yourself, actually. An exact search for "because of a prior component with the same name" returned 30 matches.

Export the old project, create the new one empty and then import the old one into it.

Pretty much all import/export is done on the client side in all but the most recent version (8.1) where they've allegedly added server side import/export.

ps. "dscmdexport.exe" is not a script but rather a Windows executable.

Like pretty much all passive stages, they "go both ways". So to speak.

Actually, you can use whatever extension you like or none at all, makes absolutely no difference.

Somewhat. Any columns handled by RCP will be strictly "pass-through", i.e. with zero in the way of transformations.

Well... you are simply setting it to the value of "Temp" so whatever is in there at the time is what you end up with. Is this a leftover value from a previous step that did not get cleared perhaps? The only place I see that value is in DataColumns<36> but it is in the ValidateColumns array...

You are still in the wrong place for this. Go here instead, the "reposted in the right forum" version.

The lock it took is still in place, use the "Cleanup Resources" option in the Director to find and release it.

Sorry, wrong forum - this one is for discussing potential FAQ subjects.

For something like this, I'd suggest reposting it in the "General" forum.

No, it won't as the "Universe" repository is no longer the sole repository for information like this in the 8.x release. Many of your old 7.x ways, especially "under the covers" stuff like this, are no longer valid.
