Primary Key is not defined in model, but primary key error is shown

Question

I'm getting this error...

2017-03-26 17:34:49.104919 Mobile[518:254067] ***
Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'RLMException',
reason: 'Only 'string' and 'int' properties can be designated the primary key'

In the prepopulated realm I have all string columns, except for 2 Double columns for lat,lng.

Here's my model:

import Foundation
import RealmSwift

class Destination: Object{

dynamic var destinationSlackChannelName = ""
dynamic var destinationSlackChannelId = ""
dynamic var destinationName = ""
dynamic var destinationType = ""
dynamic var destinationCode = ""
dynamic var destinationRegionCode = ""
dynamic var destinationSiteSlackChannelName = ""
dynamic var destinationCity = ""
dynamic var destinationCountry = ""
dynamic var destinationStatus = ""
dynamic var destinationLastUpdated = ""
dynamic var lat:Double = 0.0
dynamic var lng:Double = 0.0

}

Here's how I'm configuring and querying realm in a singleton called RealmManager....

    func getHebronDestinations() -> Results<Destination> {
        let bundleUrl = Bundle.main.url(forResource: "default", withExtension: "realm")
    let config = Realm.Configuration(
        fileURL: bundleUrl,
        readOnly: true,
        schemaVersion: 0,
        migrationBlock: { migration, oldSchemaVersion in
            if (oldSchemaVersion < 1) {
                Log.info?.message("\(oldSchemaVersion)")
                Log.info?.message("wtf")
            }
            if (oldSchemaVersion < 2) {
                Log.info?.message("\(oldSchemaVersion)")
            }
            Log.info?.message("Realm migration did run")  // Log to know migration was executed
        }
    )

    let realm = try! Realm(configuration: config)
    let naoHebronResults = realm
        .objects(Destination.self)
        //.filter("destinationRegionCode == 'nao' AND destinationCode == 'heb'")
    Log.info?.message("\(naoHebronResults)")
    for res in naoHebronResults{
        Log.info?.message(res.destinationName)
    }
    return naoHebronResults
}

And here's the function call in a ViewController...

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    print("viewDidLoad")
    let realmManager = RealmManager.shared
    let hebDevices = realmManager.getHebronDestinations()
    print(hebDevices)
}

Why am I still getting that primary key error, if there is no primary key in the model?

I made this realm file from a csv via realm browser...it worked once before.

It doesn't matter if you don't have a Primary Key on models that are "in play". I had models that weren't inside the pre populated realm yet, and THOSE models had Primary Keys on them.

I thought only models "in play/inside the realm" counted.

Any Object subclasses with a Primary Key will cause the error... Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'RLMException', reason: 'Only 'string' and 'int' properties can be designated the primary key'

Can you do a search in your project for a function named primaryKey to see if you've overlooked one?
