Hi James,  Myself and Nick has done some more testing and have isolated the problem explained above. As soon as we add a value into Allow Origins (CORS) in portal limiting the applications domains that can access our Enterprise deployment the error outlined above occurs. If we remove all values from Allow origins its works. I understand that once you a value to the Allow Origins interface it goes from allowing all to only that domain so there must be a domain that is called via the S123 feature report creation that is not obvious to us.  The web map that the report fails on uses an ESRI basemap as well as a service from our Enterprise site. I have tried adding the Survey123 website as well as the ESRI basemaps domain but that doesn't help. It would seem there is a domain that is called as part of the Survey123 feature report creation that needs to be added to the Allow origins. Can you assist us with confirming what that domain is?   Thanks Cameron ... View more

Just to reiterate what Nick said the ArcGIS Enterprise in question is exposed publicly to the internet and has a CA signed cert.  ... View more

Hi,   To publish from Desktop using Integrated Windows Authentication, please check if: ArcGIS Server security has been configured to use Windows users\roles and Web Tier authentication. The ArcGIS Web Adaptor has been configured to allow administrative access to the site. IIS has "Anonymous" authentication disabled and "Windows" authentication enabled. In the ArcGIS Desktop "Add ArcGIS Server" wizard: The "Server URL" parameter has http://iishostname/arcgis and not http://arcgishost:6080/arcgis. The "Authentication" section has the credentials of a Windows user(not the Primary Site Administrator) who is a member of a role with Publisher\Administrator privileges. Please use http://arcgishost:6080/arcgis/admin/security/users/getPrivilege to confirm the user's privilege If you need instructions on configuring ArcGIS Server for Integrated Windows Authentication, please see the tutorial Securing web services with Integrated Windows Authentication Regards, Raj Hi Raj, Thanks for your post on resolving the issue with not being able to publish using Windows Authentication. Can you please ensure that your check list makes it in to the ArcGIS Server documentation? I spent a whole day trying to work out what was going wrong and found nothing in the documentation. It was only after finding your post that I was able to resolve this problem. It all makes sense that you need to allow administrative access through the web adaptor and that you have to use the IIShostname and not the :6080 instance but this is not in the documentation. On the web adaptor page should it not say something like "if you are using Windows Authentication please enable administrative access to your site through the Web Adaptor" This would save people a lot of time in the future!

Hi Kent, Take a look at the following link about updating statistics. You should update statistics before and after a compress operation, after you add or remove topology rules, and after you have finished importing, loading, or copying data into an ArcSDE geodatabase. Here is a link about rebuilding indexes.  If you are using SQL Server Enterprise edition, refer to the following KB article on how to rebuild indexes. Hi Jake, I noticed that you referred to the KB article http://support.esri.com/en/knowledgebase/techarticles/detail/24518 regarding rebuilding and analysing data. Is it best to use the SQL script in this KB or use the Analyze tool in Toolbox? It looks like they do the same thing but the SQL script seems more user friendly and easier to administer as it automatically will analyze and index all tables associated with the data owner. If I were to use the analyze tool say through model builder then I would have to add each feature class in and then update it each time I add a new feature class to the geodatabase. Looking at 10.1 this tool seems to have been improved to automatically do all the feature classes and tables etc but we are still at 9.3. Is that a fair assessment? Stay with the SQL script until we move to 10.1? Thanks Cameron ... View more

Hi Derek, hmmm this is rather embarrassing but it was the spatial reference code that was wrong ie 27700 rather than 2770! One more quick question, do you have any idea why the variable uprn returns as undefined?  I am trying to get the value of the field "Polling_Station_UPRN" so that I can use it as an input in another application but for some reason the value comes back as undefined outside of the function it is called in.  I have created it as a global variable but it's still undefined.  Any ideas?

Build an esri.geometry.Point() from your query string parameters and set that as query.geometry. And you probably don't need returnGeometry = true if you're not using a map. Hi Derek, I have done as you suggested and set the xy values as the query.geometry but its not working. query = new esri.tasks.Query();   var XY = new esri.geometry.Point (535487,182880, new esri.SpatialReference({ wkid: 2770 }));   query.geometry = XY;   query.outFields = ["Polling_Station_UPRN", "District_Code"];   queryTask.execute(query,showResults); When I look at the call to the REST service I can see the XY are all screwed up.  I am sure this is because I am not declaring the point to the query.geometry correctly.  Can you help me with this?  Sorry my Javascript skills are non-existent.

Hi, On a slightly different tangent, I am using the SOAP Legend in my Silverlight application (have yet to upgrade to silverlight 2.0) and recently I applied security and now I get the following error 'Unable to generate legends: The HTTP request is unauthorized with client authentication scheme 'Anonymous'. The authentication header received from the server was 'Negotiate,NTLM'.'  I have tried to use both credentials and usedefaultcredentials in the webclient class but neither of them seem to work. Anybody got any ideas what I am doing wrong? Thanks Cameron ... View more

Cameron, Here is what I was able to do to get my console application to call my SOE with security in place on ArcGIS Server.   After I added a service reference to my SOE (WSDL) in VS 2010,   I went in and changed the security tag in app.config from this: <security mode="None">      [INDENT]<transport clientCredentialType="None" proxyCredentialType="None" realm="" />      <message clientCredentialType="UserName" algorithmSuite="Default" />[/INDENT] </security> To this: <security mode="TransportCredentialOnly">     [INDENT]<transport clientCredentialType="Ntlm" realm="" />[/INDENT]</security> Hope this helps.    Mele Hi Mele, Thanks for your help on this.  Seeing that ours is a web service rather than a application I tried to add the transportcredentialonly mode into the web.config of the web service but there was no transport under the transportcredentialonly mode.  Any ideas how I would do this with a web service? Thanks again Cameron ... View more

I have a SOAP SOE that I am trying to access from a .NET console application as a service reference.   The SOE resides on an ArcGIS Server that implements security.   We are using windows authentication to secure our Map Services. Below is the code to call a method from the SOE: using (PrintMap_From_LIS_SOE.ServiceReference3.TE_Coll_Offset_SOEPortClient te = new TE_Coll_Offset_SOEPortClient())     {     string coords = te.OffsetCoords("N 94TH ST", "E CACTUS RD", 711670, 944759, "E", 140); } I was able to access the SOE before we implemented security and now I am getting this message: The HTTP request is unauthorized with client authentication scheme 'Anonymous'. The authentication header received from the server was 'Negotiate,NTLM'. How do I pass credentials to the SOE? Thanks, Mele Hi Mele, I have exactly the same problem as you have with a print service and a map service legend that now no longer work once Security is enabled.  Did you ever resolve this problem? Thanks Cameron ... View more

Hi Cameron Sorry for this late reply. I haven't checked my emails for ages... Yes, you would have thought so, but the reality is different. I spent lots of time on trying to create my own geocoding service and after loads of trial and error attempts, I have managed to get somewhere. I can proudly say (just because I didn't get any help from ESRI or anyone else and I did it all by myself) that I managed to get a pretty good address locator. It's not perfect and it needs more input, but it's a start. The trouble is that for the last 2 months or so I haven't had the time to look into it, as I had other priorities. We changed our gazetteer software and I need to wait until everything runs smoothly on that side before I spend more time on the locator, but I'm sure that its turn will come soon! 🙂 It's been a while now since I haven't touched it, but from what I can remember I've got to the stage where it finds all the addresses except from one particular situation, i.e.: when you're trying to search for a specific flat within a a block of flats, it returns as 100% matched all the flats within that block of flats. I'll probably need to look more into the scores, but I just couldn't find what exactly needs modifying. I have also tried to create different locators which I can then merge into a composite locator. So...I managed to create a street locator taking the centre point of each street (it would have been great if there was an easy way to modify the one range or two range styles, but as I can see it, there is no easy way of doing it...); I have also created locators for postcodes and towns, which were ok. The postcode locator was a bit tricky, but in the end I managed to modify it so it now recognizes postcodes with or without a space in-between the two parts (e.g. KT17 3EH & KT173EH) Now, it's only a matter of fixing the single house style so that it does exactly what I want it to. Also, once I finish this I want to look into the reverse geocoding as I haven't had the chance to do that at all. Anyway, if you think we can both work on any bit of this geocoding service and get somewhere (2 is always better than 1 🙂 ), please let me know. Thanks Andreea Hi Andreea, That's impressive!  I have looked at this so many times when I have had a spare 30 mins or so and got no where.  When I talk to ESRI UK they suggest i spend a ridiculous amount of money on Locator Hub which isn't going to happen in this economic climate. I am interested in all of the address locators you have talked about if you are willing to share information with me. Then if I make any progress I can share it with you. How does that sound? Thanks Cameron ... View more

Hi Andreea, Did you ever make in headway with this?  I am also trying to find a way to use the geocoding services that come out of the box from ESRI with UK addresses.  You would have thought someone would have created a UK address locator by now! Thanks Cameron ... View more
