Connection with local ARCGIS Server

NadeemQazi

Hi
I am new to arcgis server and viewer . I have installed arcgis server on my labtop. the name of the server is NA-LAP-3z8 and instance of the gis server is named as ARcGIS_Server so that when i start my arcgis server the following address is appeared in browser.
http://localhost/ArcGIS_server/Manager/login.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2fArcGIS_server%2fManager%2fdefault.aspx
Now I want to connect the ArcGIS server through flexview 3.0. I want to know what name should i give to make a connection actually i have tried "NA-LAP-3z8" and the arcgis_Server but it did not return me any thing when i click the browse. any help is highly appreciate.

Good Morning Robert
While with your help I am able to run the arcgis viewer now thank you for your help. But as it always happens one problem finishes and second arises:) I appreciate your time for looking it.

I am running a Pyton script to publish a msd file. this is my coding

import arcpy
try:
msd= r"C:\GeoSpatialTraining\ArcGIS 10\GIS Programming 101\Exercises\crime.msd"
arcpy.mapping.PublishMSDToServer (msd, "http://<localhost>/arcgis/services", "<localhost>", "MyMapService", "", ["WMS", "KML"])
except IOError as e:
print "I/O error({0}): {1} {2}".format(e.errno, e.strerror,e.message)

However it fails to publish the service. Any idea what could possible be wrong. I have shared the folder and also added arcgis user into it. When i tried to publish the service using arcgis server manager it worked and service is published but with the above python script it did not work.
Regards
Nadeem

Hi there

thank you for help in solving the server issues. now I am customizing the application created through ARCGIS Viewer for flex 3.0
here is my problem I would be thankful if you could answer for it.
I want to customized my arcgisview application for flex. I have made the application using the arcgis viewer for flex 3.0. I have three maps layers which are shown in Map switcher widget. I want to do following
1. the widget should only show the my layer names i.e i want to hide all the layers name in it
2. The default name of the basemap in the widget should be changed

I tried to change the config file of the widget but it did not work. I tired following code.
<configuration>
<layerlist label="Imagery" visible="false">

<excludelayer>"mylayer" </excludelayer> (however it does not exclude this layer, either i sued with or without "")
</layerlist>

<expandlayeritems>false</expandlayeritems>
<showthumbnails>true</showthumbnails>

<labels>
<basemapslabel>gggg< /basemapslabel> ( it does not change the default label)

</labels>

</configuration>
Is there any way that i can also use this map switcher widget to take input and based on that input show the content of the selected layer.
Any help is appreciated.
Regards
Nadeem

first, do you have AGS security turned on? If so, have you granted permission for the appropriate user roles to use the geoprocessing service?

second, is the service running without errors on startup?

third, have you refreshed the rest cache since it was started?

You should be able to see this geoprocessing service on the /rest/services page.

NadeemQazi

Make sure you have a bunch of cfg files in a folder similar to: c$\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS\Server10.0\server\user\cfg. These are the config files for the services and if they don't exist then the configs only exist in ram.

Thnx , when i change the permission rights on this directory , then config files are created. and now the services are not volatile. However when i create geo processing service using the ARCGIS server than it is created, published and running but this geo processing service is not available in the ARGIS viewer for flex. I also checked the widget but even than could not access the published geo processing service. any help

Thanks Robert and Trevor Weiland for your help. The problem of local host is solved as it was the firewall who was making problem and other issue was the IPversion 6 was enabled i changed it IP version 4 now the ARCGIS Server can also be access using the IP Address. However I am putting up one more problem now 🙂

I have seen that all the services that i published on the ARCGIS Server is disappeared once the server is re- started and i need to create the services each time the server starts. i have enabled the check box that says re start the service when the server starts up. Any suggestion

Kind Regards
Nadeem

NadeemQazi

thanks Trevor Weiland
Yeah I can see them with name of my arcgis server like

for ISS I can see IIS when i type localhost in the browser
for ARCGIS Manager http://localhost/ArcGIS_server/manager

for rest admin login page http://localhost/ArcGIS_server/rest/admin

i mean with the name of localhost it works but not with the name of server name of my machine.

TrevorWeiland

I cannot tell by reading through the thread-have you fixed the abilitiy to see the rest services yet?

If not:
Can you see the default welcome page for IIS (http://localhost)?
Can you see the AGS Manager page (http://localhost/ArcGIS/manager)?
Can you see the rest admin login page (http://localhost/ArcGIS/rest/admin)?

A problem with any one of these 3 pages indicates either a problem with IIS or with the AGS install. Until you can see the rest services page, you won't be able uses your services in any viewer.

Nadeem,

Try not putting the right and left carret around the local host:

import arcpy
try:
msd= r"C:\GeoSpatialTraining\ArcGIS 10\GIS Programming 101\Exercises\crime.msd"
arcpy.mapping.PublishMSDToServer (msd,  "http://localhost/arcgis/services", "localhost",  "MyMapService", "", ["WMS", "KML"])
except IOError as e:
print "I/O error({0}): {1} {2}".format(e.errno, e.strerror,e.message)

Hi Robert

I am using ArcGiS VIEWER for flex 3.0 which is used to to create new web mapping applications, i have used it for creating a web application allowing access to my published map service. however as i wrote u that after changing the url it does show me the published service however when i preview it it gave me this error :

Map Manager
airport layer failed to load :Fault code:Channel.Security.Error
Fault info:Secruity error acessing url
Fault detailsestinationefault HTTP

I think its now some user right problems, Can u please give some guide line
Regards
Nadeem

Nadeem,

Is your laptop the machine that ArcGIS Server is installed on? It is strange that your machine name is NA-LAP-3Z8 yet it can not resolve this to your IP Address. You need to talk with your IT staff about this issue. When you are speaking of ArcViewer are you talking about the ArcGIS Viewer for Flex website that is built using App Builder or are you using the compiled ArcGIS Viewer for Flex and deploying it to your webserver yourself or are you using Flash Builder and the uncompiled Viewer?

Nadeem,

Ensure you have a crossdomain file on your server, see:

http://resources.esri.com/help/9.3/arcgisserver/apis/flex/help/index.html#references/using_crossdomain_xml.htm?

Hi Robert its me once again

I checked the name of my laptop the machine name is NA-LAP-3Z8 and it is member of domain NUIM. The same name //NA-LAP-3z8 is shown by ARCGIS Server Manager when i used it for publishing the service. But outside this it does not work.

Robert , I am sorry If I am taking you much time, actually I did one more thing and tried this URL(http://localhost/ArcGIS_server/rest/services/airport/MapServer) in browser (i.e. rather than giving the server name i have used local host).it worked and displayed the layers inside my published service.

however when i did the same with the arcviewer ,it worked and showed me the published service on the server.However now there is another problem and it when i selected the map saved it and tried to preview it i got errors 🙂

Map Manager
airport layer failed to load :Fault code:Channel.Security.Error
Fault info:Secruity error acessing url
Fault details:Destination:Default HTTP

I think its now some user right problems, Can u please give some guide line. Also what do u think what could be done to use the server name rather than using local host in the URL. I also tried to modified the host file but it did not work

Thank you very much for your time
Regards
Nadeem

Nadeem,

You are not by any chance using server 10.1 as the URL for your rest endpoints changed unless you are using the ArcGIS Web Adapter see:

http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/index.html#//0154000002p0000000

Nadeem,

Try it with localhost then instead of na-lap-3z8. Are you sure that the name of the machine with ArcGIS Server installed is "na-lap-3z8"?

http://localhost/ArcGIS_Server/rest/services

NadeemQazi

Thanks Robert I did as u asked me and this URL does not work in browser with following message. Please Note I have installed server on windows 7.0 . is it some problem with network or i need to install DNS. I am on company network but ARCGIS Server is installed on my machine.

The following error was encountered while trying to retrieve the URL: http://na-lap-3z8/ArcGIS_Server/rest/services

    Unable to determine IP address from host name "na-lap-3z8"

    The DNS server returned:

    Name Error: The domain name does not exist.

Regards
Nadeem

rscheitlin

Nadeem,

Try entering http://na-lap-3z8/ArcGIS_Server/rest/services in to the addressbar of your browser and see if it pulls up a web page which is the REST Services Directory if not than you have an issue with your ArcGIS Server installation and should contact Tech Support.

NadeemQazi

Thank you Robert,
However i entered the same url as you mentioned but still there is no result from ARCGIS Viewer. Let me re- phrase my problem

I have published a map service(airport.mxd) to my ARCGIS Server and i can see it is running on my ARCGIS Server manager
I run the ARCGICVIEWER for FLEX
it asked me for basemaps
I clicked ARCGIS Server and entered your mentioned URL http://NA-LAP-3z8/ArcGIS_Server/rest/services but it returned no result.
I also tried this one :
http://NA-LAP-3z8/ArcGIS_Server/rest/services/airport/MapServer
but no success.
any help.....
thank you
nadeem

rscheitlin

Nadeem,

The REST Services directory url would be: http://NA-LAP-3z8/ArcGIS_Server/rest/services and from there you can get the url to your specific MapServices.
