[solved] Unable to edit relationships

[myles]

Error message "1 Duplicate relationship - One relationship was not created because it already exists."

And I stress that I am editing the relationship, not creating a new one.

This was not noted before the upgrade to 4.5.2 (we could edit fine before but this is the first time it has been attempted in a while)

We need to update custom data on the relationships about once a month.. and being the end of the month... agh...


Edit...

This occurs when there is a disabled relationship between the same contacts as well as an active one, when the disabled one doe not have dates on it.

You can have multiple relationships however if the relationship has a start and end date (is expired) and a later start date for the active one. So you can volunteer for a week in September every year or disown your children and change your mind - but only if you are scrupulous about dates.

Good to be scrupulous about dates while being scrupleless about disowning ones children ;-)
