Error 003266 When Creating Building Scene Layer Package on ArcGIS Server 11.2

DominicReed

Hi everyone,

I am trying to automate the creation of a Building Scene Layer from a Revit file by building a geoprocessing service on ArcGIS Server (advanced license, Enterprise version 11.2). The process works perfectly in ArcGIS Pro, where I use the arcpy.CreateBuildingSceneLayerContent() tool to generate the .slpk file. I then publish the tool using the ArcGIS API for Python.

However, when I publish the tool on ArcGIS Server and try to run it as a GP service, the tool fails during the .slpk preparation step and throws the following error:

"003266: Absolute Z values used"

Steps I've Tried:

1. Converted the Revit file into a geodatabase format and reprojected it.

2. Reprojected the dataset to various coordinate systems.

3. Ensured all inputs have valid spatial references and elevation values.

Despite these efforts, the error persists only when running the tool as a GP service on the server.

Has anyone encountered this issue before? Any insights into the cause of Error 003266 in this context or suggestions to resolve it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi,

This message should only be returned as a warning not an error message. We'll investigate further and get back to you.

thanks,

Hello Everyone,
I am also facing issues after publishing the script into ArcGIS Server 11.2. It is failing to publish slpk file.

building_layer = "BuildingLayer"

arcpy.management.MakeBuildingLayer(revit_file, building_layer)

arcpy.AddMessage(f"Temporary Building Layer Created: {building_layer}")

name = f"{building_name}_prj{timestamp}"

inGCS = os.path.join(building_layer_dir, f"{building_name}.prj")

outGCS = 'PROJCS["WGS_1984_Web_Mercator_Auxiliary_Sphere",GEOGCS["GCS_WGS_1984",DATUM["D_WGS_1984",SPHEROID["WGS_1984",6378137.0,298.257223563]],PRIMEM["Greenwich",0.0],UNIT["Degree",0.0174532925199433]],PROJECTION["Mercator_Auxiliary_Sphere"],PARAMETER["False_Easting",0.0],PARAMETER["False_Northing",0.0],PARAMETER["Central_Meridian",0.0],PARAMETER["Standard_Parallel_1",0.0],PARAMETER["Auxiliary_Sphere_Type",0.0],UNIT["Meter",1.0]],VERTCS["EGM96_Geoid",VDATUM["EGM96_Geoid"],PARAMETER["Vertical_Shift",0.0],PARAMETER["Direction",1.0],UNIT["Meter",1.0]];-20037700 -30241100 10000;-100000 10000;-100000 10000;0.001;0.001;0.001;IsHighPrecision'

customGeoTransfm = "GEOGTRAN[METHOD['Geocentric_Translation'],PARAMETER['X_Axis_Translation',''],PARAMETER['Y_Axis_Translation',''],PARAMETER['Z_Axis_Translation','']]"

transformation = arcpy.management.CreateCustomGeoTransformation(name, inGCS, outGCS, customGeoTransfm)

arcpy.AddMessage(f"custom transformation created as {transformation}")

# Create the scene layer package

result = arcpy.management.CreateBuildingSceneLayerPackage(building_layer,output_slpk,outGCS,transformation,'DESKTOP',None)

arcpy.AddMessage(f"Scene layer package created: {output_slpk}")

Hi,

Thanks for your patience as I was out of the office for the holidays. After looking into it further I can confirm that this bug was fixed in 11.3. This error message was being reported as an error instead of a warning. Now, the question is why is it even being reported? The Create Building Scene Layer Content tool creates the scene layer based on the Z values. If you add a layer to a scene and set the elevation mode to anything other than Absolute Z this warning alerts you that the output may look different then how you had it setup initially. Now when the layer gets created in this case (without a 3D scene) it looks like for some of the category layers the elevation is not being written which then triggers our tool to return this message. The tool is checking for the presence of "featureElevationExpression": "Shape.Z". I need to check with the BIM team to find out why this is not being written to the layer in all cases and also see if there's a workaround in 11.2 for you. I'll follow up once I have some more information.

thanks,

Andrew

Hi,

See my comment above for some background info. Will report back on workarounds.

thanks,

Hi @Andrew--Johnson,

Thanks for your reply and many many thanks for looking into the matter. To give you a heads up, I tried to publish the tool in the 11.3 as well as 11.4 enterprise, but when running through REST API, the process stucks in the create building scene layer part and waits untill server kills the job. I extended maximum idle time by many hours but the process never completes. However, I tried to run the process using server python on the server machine in 11.3 as well as 11.4. Can you take a look into that also?

Thanks again!
