Package Creation works in PD, not in PY

We create a package which contains Versions, UBEs, and Tables. We can build this package in PD on a development workstation, no problem-- it takes about 15 minutes. But when we create a package with the same objects from the same machine, but in PY, the build hangs and never recovers (we waited 1.5 hours).

All of the objects have been checked in to the server from OMW in both environments. The last line in the BuildError.txt for the package is:

24/12/2002 12:58:39 0 Updating parent package TAM file gbrspec.

In the package which builds successfully from PD, this same line appears, followed four minutes later by
24/12/2002 10:20:43 0 Successful Build of Package 'PD7333U003', 12/24/2002 10:20.

Can anyone give us ideas for why this happens? Thanks.

Dear Allen,

I had this problem eralier. While building a package if the process comeout with error in GBRSPEC build. It also takes a lot of time to get the update build finished. Please try to build and update package with minimum of two obejct in PY with the same parent package. If this still fails with GBRSPEC error then ur GBRSPEC is currupted. Please build a new fullpackage for PY this runs smoothly

Parent package gbrspec is corrupt. Quick and dirty would be to find a good
copy, possibly from an existing fat client with that parent package
deployed, and replace it. Make sure you copy both the xdb and ddb file.

Obviously you can, and should eventually, build another full package.

I had the same thing happen a couple of weeks ago. The best thing is to build a new full package.
