QUERY TASK returns Server argument not found.

[MosesAsuquo]

I bumped my MaxRecordCount ArcGIS server parameter from its default of 500 to a larger number. The querytask returns correct number of features as expected but when the # of features to be returned is in the 55,000 to 350, 000 range the api returns a HttpWebRequest_WebException_RemoteServer Argument not found exception as in the attached file below:

[ATTACH=CONFIG]16888[/ATTACH]


I am not sure what the real problem is but I'm persuaded to believe that the connection closes on the QueryTask API for large (55,000-350,000) features. I have looked at the layer server configuration settings but can't find a parameter i can tweak to increase the sendTimeout of the database so that it doesn't timeout for large features.

Is there a parameter i can tweak to allow the connection to stay longer? Please any helpful suggestion will be  much appreciated.

Thank you!

Moses,

Have you tried tracing your error in Fiddler to see what is happening?  If you are unfamiliar with Fiddler check out this link where I explain how to use Fiddler.  http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/22613   If you send the Fiddler information. I might be able to help.
