ArcGIS 101 Thumbnail's not updating on server

harleypowers_parks

is there a problem with the thumbnail generation on arcgis server 101?
Event the help documentation shows the black thumbnails.
minor issue, and might be just because this is the esri sample data.

I did a search and just replaced with an appropriate thumbnail, before checking the actual flow... so my workaround is bit of a hack.

workaround:
copy <your new 200 x 133 px image> to c:\arcgisserver\config-store\services\<name of service>\esriinfo\thumbnail\thumbnail.png

you might need to, but check with esri, I notice late that the px size was larger, oops
- c:\arcgisserver\config-store\services\<name of service>\esriinfo\.JPEG

and here - c:\arcgisserver\directories\arcgissystem\arcgisinput\<name of service>\extracted\esriinfo\thumbnail\thumbnail.png

it displays nice now... and if you don't like the default thumbnail that is generated, you can fix it.
