Local fix
The workaround is go to the Rule Designer, and add Type="xs:boolean" to the Check.Gap and Check.Overlap properties in the dta files. Then synhronize the changes back to decision center.
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * * Users in the Decision Center * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * * In old decision tables the check gap and overlap properties * * can be stored as String (instead of Booleans) in the dta. * * The dtx loader fails to load such tables, whereas Rule * * Designer can. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * ****************************************************************
Problem conclusion
The code was fixed.
Temporary fix
Fix the DTA content or open the table in Rule Designer, edit the properties and save the table
