Cascade and MapServer service?

VojtěchBlažek1

Hi everybody,

I'am creating a story map cascade using web template.

Everytime if I use webmap which contains external web map services, it doesn't work in Cascade.

Services like this: ortofoto_wm (MapServer)

Do you anybody solve this problem?

If I use webmap containig only #map notes everything works. Maybe is problem with http protocol and maps will work only with https?

Any tips how to solve this?

Hi Vojtěch,

I was able to create a Cascade story (here) using that service, so I believe you are correct in that you are encountering an issue with HTTP/HTTPS.

Standard web security dictates that if a web page or app is accessed over HTTPS, then all other content on that page must also be accessed over HTTPS. This is often referred to as "mixed content" and you can read more about it here.

It looks like the GIS server where that imagery service is hosted is not configured with a security certificate, so it does not support HTTPS. I'm not sure if that is your server or if it is administered by another organization, but one way to solve your issue is to configure the GIS server for HTTPS (this is a best practice anyway).

Another thing you can try is to access your story map over HTTP -- you can try just changing the URL in your browser's address bar to http://[your app URL]. This will only work if your ArcGIS Online organization is not configured to require HTTPS in the organization security settings.

Thanks a lot for advice..

I changed the adsress bar to http - It works now

The services I've mentioned is provided by Czech State Administration of Land Surveying and Cadastre.

So I am not sure if they turn it into https

Anyway thanks for advice iam smarter now

I've just asked Czech State Administration of Land Surveying and Cadastre for more info. And problem is simple.

They are using SSL certificate from ICA. On 24.6. Microsoft has classified root certificate of ICA as untrustworthily

During actualization excludes attribute "Server Authenticate" for root certificate ICA. Microsoft promises that during january 2017 will be everything fixed

For now helps me this application, which sets up attributes for certificates in my computer

Hi Vojtech,

Sorry you are having that issue. This doesn't sound like a Story Maps issue, so I think your question would have a better chance of being answered if you posted it to ArcGIS for Server .
