error 999999: error executing function
Hi, I am new and try to use ArcGIS tools. When I try to use a tool, say fill tool (a tool which corrects the elevation), the ArcGIS works correctly when I work on a single DEM.tif grid. However, when I use a merged picture, it fails. Can anyone kindly guide me?

By "Merged Picture", are you referring to a mosiac dataset? Do the Mosaic Dataset display correctly on ArcGIS Pro.

Could you try setting the Parallel Processing Factor (Tool Environments) to 0 (zero), and run the tool again?

Hi again Jayanta,

It worked. At first time, I went to "Environments" in the Fill tool window. It did not work. But this time, I went to "Geoprocessing>Environment>Parallel Processing Factor > puting 0"

I really appreciate your help.

Armin - in reviewing the Fill geoprocessing tool parameters, it appears to only support a single band elevation raster dataset vs a mosaic dataset. A workaround is to use the Merge Geoprocessing tool and merge your multiple raster datasets into a single raster dataset and then run the Fill GP tool.

Fill/ Flow Direction, etc. works fine on Mosaic Dataset (at least for me). I assume user must have added DEM (single-band) in his mosaic dataset. The user just needs to ensure the Raster values have reflected correctly in the resulting image of the Mosaic Dataset. Else one needs to Calculate Statistics for the Mosaic Dataset before using it for analysis.

Hi Jayanta, thank you for your reply. No, setting Parallel Processing Factor to zero did not work. I first downloaded four dem files with extension of tif. Then, I merged mosaic files to single file using "Mosaic to Raster New Raster" tool.

I even sent the merged single file to my friend. His ArcGIS could work with that file and do fill tool, but my ArcGIS fails!
Do you have any idea why it happens? I have a project and really need this! Thank you

Could you share screenshot of the error(s) and messages like the filepath of input and output? Avoid using spaces, special characters (except underscore) in filepath, and keep them short, and store them in local drive.

e.g.: C:\Data\Rasters\ElevMos.tif

Dear Jayanta,

I uploaded what you asked. I really appreciate your help.

Previous pictures seem to have low quality. SO, I am sending new ones.

Tips to Fix the Esri 999999 Error
Repair Your Geometry. A common culprit of the 999999 Esri error is small geometry errors in your vector data.
Turn Off Background Processing.
Geoprocess in Chunks.
Rewrite Your Output File Name.
Swap Null Values to Zero.
Raster Problems.
Delete Your Temp Folder.
Just Do It in QGIS.

This may help you,

Rachel Gomez

Hi Jayanta,

It worked.
I appreciate your help.

Interesting comment but there really aren't any valid tips to fix ESRI:s 999999 Error. This error, by definition, is "unexpected" and without a known cause.

With respect to the actual question posed by ArminAzad, the error arises when running a Fill on a DEM.

When faced with en error in this situation, the best course of action is typically to reduce the size of the input. I.e. use ClipRaster to reduce the DEM by 50% and then run the Fill. Does it still crash? If not, then the problem has been identified. However, one thing I would never recommend is to try and run RepairGeometry on a raster elevation model 😬
