Cannot publish services while duplicated Publishing Tools is created on server 10.1

$
0
0
When trying to publish a service to the server 10.1, I receive an error message indicating Publishing Tools on the server have not been started. But, when I check the server I notice there are two Publishing Tools (icon): one Stopping... and one stopped (attached screenshot). I have restarted the server to no avails! I would be grateful if anyone please could tell me what the problem may be.

Thanks

Spatial View on PostgreSQL data - Function or procedure does not exist

$
0
0
I am trying to create a spatial view on joined tables using an st_geometry shape field from one of the joined feature classes in a postgresql database.

When I try to register the view using sdelayer I get:Attachment 23500

If I retry the command it seems to succeed, but when trying to preview the view, I get the same error in ArcCatalog: Attachment 23498

Trying to find something that I can change, if I recalculate the feature extents I get: Attachment 23499

All these seem to point to the sde functions not being accesses.

Any ideas?

arcgis server connection pooling

$

Hi there.

I'm looking at reducing number of connections from ArcGIS Server 10 services to a PostgreSQL 8.4 geodatabase.

I'm seeing 2 connections per map service. These connections appear as "<IDLE> in transaction", ie they are not doing anything.

My question is how to reduce the number of connections. Is there a configuration setting I can use?

Also, has anyone used PgBouncer with ArcGIS Server?

Thanks,

I'm having this error:

{Error code '400': 'Unable to complete operation.'
Error executing tool.: Layer "3657710fff894af28b244f9a13ef1982": Missing 'url' in symbol.

And I don't know why. It's on a point layer but if I uncheck it in the TOC the printting tool works.
I have tried changing the symbology.

Thanks in advance

Moving from Single Server (10.1) site to Multi Server site config question

$
0
0
I am evolving from Single Server site to Multi Server site and have a question about how to go about editing the config store and directories locations. My single site locations are local paths (c:\arcgisserver\config-store, etc..). Question is, should I edit the existing local paths to a UNC server location, or just add new additional UNC folder locations and then delete the local directory locations? If I add new UNC folder locations first while keeping local paths, will my Arcgis Server 10.1 services remain online ?

thanks

How to change the DPI setting in the exportwebmap print service

$
0
0
Is it possible to change the DPI setting when printing from the Flex Viewer application using the out of the box ArcGIS Server 10.1 exportwebmap print service? NIM074373 suggests that the viewer will not have this functionality and the API PrintParameters.exportOptions supports a dpi property (default 96). How would this be configured? Is it within the Flex Viewer config files or can it be set up on the server side?

Workgroup ArcSDE and enterprise ArcGIS Server?

$
0
0
Hi, guys,

I have two questions about Workgroup ArcSDE and I don't know they are related or not.

Our ArcGIS Server is at Enterprise level, and I have Workgroup ArcSDE through SQL Server Express configured on the same machine. The ArcSDE license/authorization file I used is the same as the Enterprise ArcGIS Server. The Workgroup ArcSDE authorization process went through without any problem.

The first question: Can I configure Workgroup ArcSDE under Enterprise license level?

The second question is: I can create a geodatabase by using the Database Server node at ArcCatalog. In the built connection, there is a command for "New Geodatabase" when I right-clicked. In the popup window, it lets me type in the Geodatabase Name, specifying the location of the storage, the size of the storage, and so on. After clicking OK button, it takes some seconds before the geodatabase name shows in the connection. But the geodatabase name disappears when I hit the refresh button, and the storage file is not created at the location I specified. I don't know why. Is it a bug from ESRI, or different licence level between Workgroup ArcSDE and Enterprise ArcGIS Server?

Thanks,

Mike

AGS 10.1 Server site breaks after resetting the primary site admin password

$
0
0
I have an existing AGS 10.1 server install and some web services running without any problem. Not knowing the primary site admin password or any other admin password, I went ahead to reset the primary admin password based on http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/...000005pw000000. But many parts of the server manager became broken. For example, refreshing any services gives this error:

service failed to start. SampleWorldCities.MapServer: ERROR: code:500, ArcGIS Server Site is not configured. Check with your ArcGIS Server administrator for resolution; an ArcGIS Server site is created or machines are added to an existing site using ArcGIS Server Manager., Cannot connect to this server.

Any idea how to fix this?

Issues caching an image service

Hello,

I am having problems using an area of interest shapefile when caching an image service. ArcGIS seems to be ignoring the shapefile and is caching the entire dataset. Is there some other setting that needs changed besides adding the shapefile as an AOI?

Thanks

sde command (append a sde feature class to an other )

Hi,

I would like to know what sde command I should use to append data from a sde feature class
to an other.

I have think of sdeimport, but it seems to require an .sdx (result of sdeexport i guess).

If possible, I would like to have an example of the command.

Thanks.

sde duplicate geometry being created (error cannot insert duplicate key on reconcile)

$
0
0
I am managing a production workflow with about a half-dozen editors in a versioned environment set up against a single ArcSDE instance (SQL Server 2008). Every once in a while something will happen where the editors will begin getting errors on reconcile about duplicate keys. Upon looking into the issue, I discovered that though there are two physical records in the geometry (duplicates) but only one record in the business table and the system will not allow a delete of the object(s). My initial thought was "multi-part feature" so explode, of course the result was "no multipart features found...".

Since it would not let the editor reconcile, I have been able to delete the affected version and recreate it minimizing the losses but it's still a loss...

Here's the thing. I am using Excel to track and report editing progress. I do this by executing sql queries (built and tested in SQL Server) through Excel data connections to read the contents into a worksheet, pivot the results and create graphs and charts. This is nothing new. I've been doing this for years and have never had a problem before. However, I've surmised that the error happens when there are active editing sessions and I run the reports.

I have therefore suspended the use of tracking progress using Excel but now I am faced with reporting progress some other way.

If anyone understands what may be happening here I would appreciate some insight so I can plan a new path for reporting.

Thank you,

Windows authentication works for XP but not Windows 7

I have arcgis server 10.1 with web tier security enabled. Windows authentication is the only option enabled in iis. Everything works perfectly when I connect to my services using silverlight on XP. When I connect using Windows 7 I am presented with a dialog for my username and password. This pops up for every layer accessed and then returns an error "The remote server returned an error: not found"
We are in the process of standardising all clients to Win 7 - What do I need to do to allow both XP and Win 7 clients to connect?

Best regards,

cannot see secure directory in ArcGIS Server connection

ArcGIS Server 10.1 SP1, ArcGIS Desktop 10.1 SP1

I have secure map services using port 6443. I'm using a Mix of Windows users and ArcGIS Server built-in roles for permissions to the directory. Through the rest services directory, I can log in as a user that has permission to see that directory. NO problem - I can see the directory and the map service inside it. However, in ArcMap, when I make a ArcGIS Server Connection and use that same user for authentication, I do not see the directory. I don't see any directory or services at all. The connection succeeds, but there is nothing to see. Why would I be able to see the directory through rest services, but not see it in the ArcGIS Server connection?

ArcGIS Server 10.1 - Map export quality (dpi)

$

Hi

Can someone help me to confirm the bug I am experiencing with ArcGIS Server 10.1?

Here are the steps to produce:
- Publish a dynamic map service (if you don’t have one set up)
- Add this map service to ArcMap
- Zoom in to an area that has point/line features
- Go to File>>Export Map...
- Choose resolution 96 dpi and save as type JPEG (or any type you want)
- Click save
- Now produce another export with resolution 600 dpi
- Compare the exported file

The export quality is different to 10.0. If the dpi is set to higher value than 96 dpi. The symbology of line and point features become big.

Thank you.

ESRI.ArcGIS.RuntimeManager problem with 10.1 upgrade

$

I have built a webapp using 10.0 and somewhere in the code-behind file, I use this:
Code:

ESRI.ArcGIS.RuntimeManager.Bind(ESRI.ArcGIS.ProductCode.EngineOrDesktop);
This worked fine in developement environment, but when I was ready to install on server, I converted it to the following and that worked fine on the Web Server.
Code:

ESRI.ArcGIS.RuntimeManager.Bind(ESRI.ArcGIS.ProductCode.Server);
Now we upgraded to 10.1, and neither one of these works on the server. It works on development environment fine.

Any idea if anything else needs to be changed somewhere?
Thanks

Web Service security settings not sticking

$

We are currently using the following

Identity Store - Active Directory
Roles - ArcGIS Server Built in
Authentication - GIS Tier

Currently we have all of our services available to the public because we don't have any of them locked down. We also have an external flex app looking at the services. I want to create some specific services that I only want seen by internal people.

When I clicked on the open lock next to one of the services, I am able to succesfully mark it as Private and assign it a built-in ArcGIS role that I have added some of our Active Directory members to. When I clicked Save it says it is saved and the lock shows up as locked. However, when I refresh the screen or logout and back in, the service is again unlocked and doesn't remember the security I setup for it. I am logged in as the PSA. Am I doing something wrong, why isn't the security settings sticking?? I appreciate any and all help!

ArcSOC.exe

$

We have been testing performance on our new 10.1 server, and trying to tune our new server(s) to handle our volume, both optimally and efficiently. Through testing we have come across an odd occurrence. When a geocode service is being accessed on the ArcGIS server, the number of ArcSOC.exes in use double. As a side effect, the memory use spikes and reaches maximum capacity. I talked to tech support and they told me that ArcSOC.exe was acting as designed. I know we can throw more memory on the server, but that is not the point. We can also adjust the runtime memory limit and the maximum instance capacity, and these changes might make a difference. But for a transactional environment changing memory limitation or capacities cause slower processing times, and bottle necks, and even with these changes the doubling of ArcSOC.exe would still occur.
In my opinion, this is poor design, and seems to be left over coding from earlier versions of ArcGIS, when DCOM was being utilized. I see no reason, nor have I obtained a valid reason, as to why ArcSOC.exe needs to double in use when a geocoding service is being accessed. Something is off in the invocation of the services, in my opinion.
An example, of this happening is, the calling process is sending 5 requests, and there are 5 instances in the management console in use. The monitor of the OS shows that there are 10 ArcSOC.exe running for the 5 instances. We are using an isolation plan so nothing else is running on the box. We have it in lockdown as we are testing the performance and tweaking.

Have any other developers noticed large memory usages, or that ArcSOC.exe doubles in size when running a geocoding service?

Maybe if enough developers complain about this fact, then a solution will be created.

A somewhat simple question: multiple sites on the same ArcGIS Server machine?

$

We are preparing to setup a test environment for an implementation of a new version of a work order management system that is integrated with our GIS. We have a FLEX viewer running on ArcGIS Server that provide a lot of our data (as well as some other functionality).

For the test environment, they want to have three separate environments for configuration: development, test and production. We are trying to determine what our needs are on the GIS side, and our ArcGIS Server developer is out of the country for a few weeks. My question is (and I think the answer is "yes"): can we have three copies of our FLEX application all on the same server? This server will likely be a virtual machine, and we will just have a "Dev, Test, and Prod" copy of our application all on the same machine. To get to one of them, you would just type in the URL that went to that version of the application?

Is this something that we could do? Would we run into a lot of performance issues (there would only be a handful of people using it at a time)? I'm thinking we could just have three different folders that housed all of the files associated with each copy of the viewer.

ARC Server Advantages

Hi, currently the organization I work for has an interactive web map. It is in need of updating, it uses Mapguide 6.5. I am currently researching companies to replace our current consultant, who doesn't seem interested in updatng our system, and also the software behind the interactive map. My question is, what advantages does Arc Server hold over Autodesk Mapguide? I need to be able to justify the expense of Arc Server, is the symbology better, are there more tools etc.? I work for a municipality of around 10,000. Also, if anybody knows a Canadian company that designs on line maps, let me know.
Thank you,
Michael Kohler
