## Symptoms

- * Security Gateway does not enforce a rule with Updatable Object in the Access Control Policy
* The *$FWDIR/database/dynamic_objects.db* file is corrupted. Updateable Objects names are missing from the file.
* Output of `dynamic_objects -uo_show` shows "*Request completed successfully but we don't see the list of IP for relevant object.*"
* Output of `fw fetchlocal` does not show the Updateable Object name.
* Packages update succesfully. The websites updates.checkpoint.com and dl3.checkpoint.com work as expected. The file *last_revision.xml* is available on the Security Management Server. Update status file confirms the update is working.
* For Geo Updateable Objects: In rare cases, country icons do not appear in SmartConsole.
* Policy installation fails at 50% with error " If problem persists, contact Check point support { Error code:0-2-2000245\]

## Cause

The *$FWDIR/database/dynamic_objects.db* file is corrupted. The object name is changed to object type and object type is changed to regular dynamic object in the file.  

In the Dynamic Objects file, the first line should be the object name, then the object type, number of ranges and the IPs addresses.  

Example configurations of Dynamic Objects file:
