I'm setting up Server, Portal, and web adaptor (on tomcat) on RHEL/Redhat 7 linux. (10.4.1) Each piece has it's own server, so that's three linux servers. I've set up Server to use an LDAP identity store, and HTTPS only. Portal also uses HTTPS only. Tomcat uses HTTPS also. When setting up web adaptor, the setup script on the tomcat machine returns success for both portal and server. I used the '-a true' switch to allow administrative access through web adaptor to server. Arcgis server manager shows itself registered with web adapter and allowing admin connections. What works through web adaptor: - Portal - Viewing non-services through the rest/admin page - the server admin page What doesn't: - manager (this just hangs loading, doesn't even get to a login stage). - logging in to see secured services. (the 'log in' does not appear. You can 'log in' by typing in the url in, and though the log in appears successful, you aren't logged in and can't see any of the secured services). I can access manager by going directly to the arcgis server url. I don't see any errors in the logs in /var/log/tomcat Does anyone have any tips for troubleshooting/next steps? Edit: I found this: Common problems and solutions—Portal for ArcGIS (10.4.1) | ArcGIS for Server which says I cannot use a web adaptor with both Portal and Server. I've also read that portal requires web adaptor. If you want to use web adaptor on both, do I then install web adaptor twice on the tomcat machine, and install the arcgis.war file to a different location?

Thanks. Though just integers? My map rotation needs to be 61.8 or else it doesn't look quite right! 😃

How does one rotate a map or layout in ArcGIS pro (like data frame tools in ArcMap)? I see how in 3D mode, but not in 2D mode.

Just installed ArcGIS Server 10.3.1 on a windows server with no direct access to the internet. Testing the 'Check for Updates' tool, have set the proxy connection in the settings for the tool. Tool always fails with 'Network Connection Error'. Using the proxy to connect to the internet from this machine has been tested successfully with IE. In fact, when I run the tool, I can see the request for the patches.json file from downloads.esri.com in the squid(proxy server) logs, and I can use that link to dl the patches.json file with IE on the server machine. Anyone know what else I might check to get this working?

We experienced this same problem also with oracle 11g/SDE 10.2 and Desktop 10.1. The solution that seemed work was to shorten the name of the network dataset we were trying to create...

When publishing a map service, I get the message 'cache is generating...', but the cache does not generate. Checking the cache status shows 0% of tiles generated, no jobs in progress. Using 'manage map tiles' tool, none of the scales that the map service is published at show in the dialog, and there is no way to add them. Using the managecachetiles.py script included with server appears to be work, then eventually exits with a key error on 'job_status' (and no tiles have been generated). I've tried publishing using both postgres and oracle based SDE databases and a fgdb on the server as datasources. The ArcGIS Server log shows these errors: 1) IPersistStream::Save failed. 2) Instance of service 'xxxx' failed to process a request. AutomationException: Unspecified error Very useful! I'm running ArcGIS Server 10.11 an RHEL 6. The only way I've been able to get tiles to generate is 'on demand' by manually panning around the map at the various scales. It is only this particular map that has this issue. I can save a layer file of a layer in the map, pull that into a new mxd, and publish that with no problem. I have tried saving everything and importing those layers into a new mxd, same issue. The map design is overly complex, it seems that this is the issue, but I can't do anything about that. What else can I investigate?

I'm seeing the same. Did you ever sort out what it is? It's annoying because it causes my except clauses to run when there does not seem to be anything wrong.

In my case I think my issue was related to using PNG32 vs PNG8 for the cached tiles. The latter would not show over the jpg based orthos.

The ArcGIS desktop executables are 32 bit, so they can only consume 32 bit DLLs, Python included. Server 10.1 uses 64 bit Python, but desktop does not. Regarding Server 10.1: I've set up the pre-release for testing on Scientific Linux 6.2. In trying to set up a virtualenv for python as I'm accustomed to, so far it seems that to use arcpy, I have to use the 'python' script included with server that uses python 2.7 win32 with WINE. What am I missing?

Any Clues? I'm on Flex Viewer 2.5 now, still having the same issue, and a google search brings me to my own forum post....

Do you have any thoughts? Since then I've added more layers. What happens is the first listed operation layer draws above the first base layer, but below all other base layers. Any operational layers beyond the first work as expected. This is pretty strange behaviour.

like so: <map initialextent="481938 5456922 482101 5457010" fullextent="-481373 5454275 5454275 5454275" top="40" wkid="26910" esrilogovisible="false"> <basemaps> <layer label="Base" type="tiled" visible="true" url="http://url/ArcGIS/rest/services/BaseMaps/BaseMap/MapServer"> <sublayer id="3" popupconfig="popups/PopUp_Buildings.xml"/> <sublayer id="10" popupconfig="popups/PopUp_Trees.xml"/> </layer> <layer label="Ortho 2009" type="tiled" visible="false" url="http://url/ArcGIS/rest/services/BaseMaps/2009Ortho/MapServer"/> <layer label="Ortho 2008" type="tiled" visible="false" alpha="0.7" url="http://url/ArcGIS/rest/services/BaseMaps/2008Ortho/MapServer"/> <layer label="Ortho 2006" type="tiled" visible="false" url="http://url/ArcGIS/rest/services/BaseMaps/2006Ortho/MapServer"/> <layer label="Ortho 2004" type="tiled" visible="false" url="http://url/ArcGIS/rest/services/BaseMaps/2004Ortho/MapServer" /> </basemaps> <operationallayers> <layer label="Water System" type="tiled" visible="false" url="http://url/ArcGIS/rest/services/UndergroundServices/WaterTile/MapServer"> <sublayer id="18" popupconfig="popups/PopUp_Hydrants.xml"/> <sublayer id="11" popupconfig="popups/PopUp_Watermain.xml"/> </layer> </operationallayers> </map>

I've set up the viewer with a number of basemaps, one png cached tile map and the rest jpg tiled maps (orthos of various years). When I switch from the 'normal' map to any of the orthos, the operational layer disappears, (or seems to be drawn BELOW the basemap). The layer is still there (I can click on the 'invisible' features and get a popup). Any idea what is going on? This doesn't seem to happen when using dynamic map service as operational layer.

To answer my own question, I just changed the workflow to add/remove layers, rather than turning their visibility on/off, and things now work as expected.

I'm exporting a number of maps by sector and theme, 6 themes and 32 sectors, so arcpy.mapping and dataDrivenPages could be a nice time saver. However, the legend on the PDF export does not respect settings made in the .mxd. The legend in the mxd looks fine of course, but legend in the exports is far too large, spacing, fontsize, legend size etc. So I'm setting the width and x/y position in the python script to ensure that the legend shows up where it should. This ALMOST works, but in the export there is no space at all between the patch/symbol and the description, so the design now looks shoddy and is a bit hard to read. It also sometimes sets the font as huge, or too small, or runs it outside the legend box. I've tried setting the spacing values and text size right when creating the legend, resizing in the mxd, etc. The only thing that comes close to working is setting the width and XY position in python. Can I access the fontsize and spacing and etc somehow from python? So close to perfect, but close is not good enough in this case.
