Hi Darryl, I did it from 10.1 to 10.2.2 and had to reconfigure all of my services. We are also using also custom made adapters. When that is said version 10.2.2 is running much better than 10.1 - so we were happy about upgrading to a newer version. - Andreas ... View more

Clicking streaming controls again I can choose to start streaming  - again..... Been trying with IE11 and Opera 30. -Andreas ... View more

Hi RJ, Thanks for your feedback. We found a workaround that has been running for almost a week now. Making a change in the host file on the GEP server  we are now accessing the local server with the FS directly and not via the web adaptor. In this way we avoid the bad URL and can run with security. It is not an optimal solution for us but we can wait for 10.3.1. Thanks Andreas ... View more

Hi RJ, Thanks for getting back - Much appreciated. A little background information about our setup i might provide some insight why we asked the question. We are using one ArcGIS for Server with GeoEvent Extension - Lets called this server for Server 1. We have another ArcGIS for Server holding feature services (FS) and map services (MS) (Server 2). The GeoEvent Extension outputs to a FS on server 2.  From what I heard from UC and what one of my colleagues was told in Palm Spring this is best practice. Server 2 make MS and FS available both internally and externally. Some of the applications require to have security enabled. One of them is a service that the GeoEvent Extension updates. Sometime in the future we would like to add more ArcGIS For Server to Server 2 and create a cluster still holding all FS and MS. We have prepared for this are using the web adaptor in front of the ArcGIS Server holding FS and MS as a load balancer but in the future we might use a physical load balancer. We have followed the architecture described in ArcGIS Help (10.2, 10.2.1, and 10.2.2). Server 1 is not accessible from outside our domain and only run GeoEvent Extension. We raised the initially question when we had problems updating FS with Security enabled  on server 2 (GIS-Tier with users LDAP). The update would run about 4-6 hours and then stop. The Geoevent Extension would say everything was still alright. The data store could still be vailidated but the Feature class being updated did not receive any updates. The only thing that caught my attention in the log was was: 'https://<Web adaptor URL>/arcgistest/admin/data/findItems?f=json&token=XXXXXXX&types=egdb: GET Request failed(HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden).' If we connect to server 2 with the directy URL then we the error below: properly due a certificate error. Invalid URL: Please provide a valid url for example: http://<hostname>:<port>/arcgis So why is it that the geoevent Extension stops after 4-6 hours? - Andreas ... View more

Got an reply from Esri Support: After some additional testing and research, it appears the issue your customer were seeing was actually expected behavior with the new 10.3 release. More precisely, the error you see when starting the TCP output, is due to the fact that it is unable to connect to its required TCP socket connection. While in previous releases, the TCP connector among others, were configured in a SERVER mode (continuously sending output and allowing any client to connect and begin receiving that feed), this new build has them configured as a CLIENT that actively pushes the feed to a defined host and port. You can confirm this by creating a TCP Input with the same port number and restarting the output. This change on the outputs from SERVER to CLIENT mode allowed for drastically improved performance in enterprise environments. This information along with a new TCP utility to replace the earlier version are included in the Tutorials that were released with the product. I’ve included a copy of that utility along with the first module of the introductory tutorial. The information specifically regarding this error can be found on page 44 (GeoEvent Extension Introduction - Module 1.pdf). I apologize for any inconveniences that were caused by the changes in this build, but hopefully they will result in a further improved product. Edited 22-Jan-2016 by RJ Sunderman: Please refer to the Real-Time Data Feeds and Sensors product page for links to the latest product tutorials. Updates to the Introduction to GeoEvent tutorial identify changes made to the TCP/Text output and provide instruction on how to establish an application server which will host the TCP socket to which the GeoEvent output can connect. The product tutorials are downloaded as bundles providing simulation files, data, and utilities needed to complete the tutorial exercises. ... View more

Hi Javier, There is one thing i do not understand when adding a data store with a token. We have a setup with a server holding GEP and ArcGIS Server installed and wanting to register a data store on another server with ArcGIS Server containing feature services.. In order to be able to cluster the server with feature services. We are registering the data store the server with feature services via another server with the web adaptor installed as shown below. The web adaptor gives access to the arcgis server with feature services to outside our internal network. Therefore we have disabled administrative access on the Web adaptor for security reasons. The data stores is successfully added but from the log I can see that a call is being made to https://<Web adaptor URL>/arcgistest/admin/data/findItems?f=json&token=XXXXXXX&types=egdb: GET Request failed(HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden). Why is the GEP trying to access an admin URL? Regards - Andreas ... View more

Hi Thomas, Much Appreciated Do you know why GEP drops the geoevent services? Regards Andy ... View more

HI RJ, Last night and today i have also experienced losing my geoevent services on 10.2.2 after restarting the windows service for GEP and had to set it up all from scratch again. Is there a way to export geoevent services like you could with the old tool Service Designer and import them again afterwards. That would also be beneficial moving from test to production. We have also experienced some weird behavior with our outputs that the feature service we are outputting to suddenly have changed after restart of GEP Windows Service Regards Andy ... View more

Hi Tif, Thanks for your answer. I found a simpler way to reproduce the problem. 1. Add layer from web 2. pull in a map service. The one i have below has the following attributes and looks like below in the DB (The data keeps getting updated that the reason why the table below and this one is not identical) The web map is set only to show 1 decimal 3. Choose gauge where and select map service 4. Chose value field capacity and operation - Average and click ok The result is like below - so the one decimal is not getting honoured. Unfortunately you cannot get access to data since they are marked sensitive. ... View more
