Duplicate Field in Service Definition

DavidMajor

I've added a field to a feature class in my SDE database, then republished the map service using it. The application I use to view the map service now crashes. Its called Cityview. It complains when it crashes that the new field is already in the service. So when I browse to the service, I noticed that the new field I added is displayed twice in the contents of the field definition. I suspect this is the problem but I can't fix it.

I've tried deleting the field, then adding another different field and same thing. Any help would be appreciated.

I'd like to hug you right now!

Thanks for sharing. Resetting the field order fixed the duplicate fields that were created when publishing services.

It helped me tremendously .

Many Thanks

This is an old thread, but this is the only one with the exact problem I had.

In my case I was able to resolve this by resetting the field order in ArcMap, then publishing it again. You can reset the field order in the layer properties window, under the fields tab, click "Options", then "Reset Field Order".

Hopefully it helps somebody.

I had a ticket with ESRI and its been resolved. The problem was arcgis account. I manage my services using database authentication, then publish services using MXDs with OS authentication. We found that when I published the data using database authentication the duplicate field problem was gone. The permissions aren't an issue when using database authentication.

Why it results in this kind of crazy error is beyond me. You would think it would stop you from publishing it rather than publish it with some configuration that shouldn't be possible.

We deleted the existing arcgis account, also deleted some old ArcGISSOC accounts related to server 10.0, then ran the server account wizard to recreate the arcgis account. We re-added the arcgis account to the instance logins and database users in SQL then made sure it had db_datareader role.

David, Kuba:
I'd suggest to contact Esri Tech Support to have them take a look at your issue.

few things:
1. I have noticed that "Shape.STArea()" field is missing even though it is a polygon fc
2. are you publishing by copying the data (it does not seem to; just wanted to double-check)
3. did you stop the map service before adding the new field? or, do you happen to have schema-locking disabled?
4. did you ever try deleting the exiting map service first >> then add new field >> and publish as a new map service?

thanks.
Tanu

If I create a copy of the feature class, delete the fc in SDE, import it back in to SDE from the copy, then re-publish the service, it does not create a duplicate of the new field. It has not worked every time though, and sometimes it duplicates one of the new fields but not another. But it is always a field that I have included after originally creating the fc. More of a workaround/dart throwing than a solution but you could try that.

I have the same problem. In the feature class the field is only once, as well in Item's XML definition and as well in ArcMap Layer. But through REST API it is displayed twice.

Any solution please?
