Ah' that wonderful "explode after error and now you are stuck" condition. I know this because "been there and done that" has applied.
At this point you must manually cleanup the Meta Data, and add the field(s) back again. Unfortunately the UI/Workflow does not check for "bad things" but when you try to update, then it goes BOOM. (You had the '-' character in the field..) Before you go in and get "deletion happy" in the OBJSTR: forms, remember to always CYI and export to arx ALL ENTIRES IN ALL TABLES of OBJSTR:.. One of our contractors went 'delete happy' and then nothing all worked, and it was restore DB time into a spare DB and recover the entries :( Q(s)>> Is this the first MetaUpdate that has run on the system, or have other custom fields been added. A good test is to go in and simply view some fields, and the UI thinks you updated and will update it again. This MUST GO OK before going any further!! Ensure (by scanning) that you don't duplicate ID/Field Name/name restrictions, and you should be fine. Also, we could not add more than 6 or 7 fields at one attempt or would get the same error.
