Unable to add my content to my arcgis.com map

SimonMorgan

I uploaded a package file that contained data from a fiel geodatabase. I made it public and available for everyone. When I try to add it to a map, I leave the search string blank and it does not find it, I tried searching by the tags I used and still nothing. Anyone had any luck adding layers fromt he my content portion of arcgis.com?

Presently, you can only add map services as layers to web maps. We're working on supporting layer packages and "web enabling" them so that they can be added over a web map.

Thanks,

Mike

Thank you for your reply, for some reason whenever I try to add one of my REST services, I get a not responding message. I can access the endpoint through the web browser though.

Mike Minami

Can you share the URL to your web service so we can try it out?
How are you trying to add your map service? Can you provide the steps you are doing?

thanks,

Mike

I go to "My Content"

I click add item

Change "the item is:" to: An ArcGIS Server Web Service

Complete my url as above

It automatically populates the title for me

I add some tags

Then click add item

I just tried it from an off-network computer and it worked fine!!

Good Times.

Mike Minami

Simon,

I too am able to add your service, so I'm not exactly sure why you can't when on your network. You might try adding the map service directly to the map via the Add dialog on the toolbar of the map. Choose to search "A GIS Server" and put the REST url in the URL box. If you find out anything more about why it's not working, let us know.

Thanks,

Mike

Having the same problem. When I tried to add a map service from our server it gives me the error "URL does not point to an ArcGIS server or ArcGIS server is not responding."
Similar problem if I try to load it thru my content. Times out.

Mike Minami

John,

What is the URL you are using to try to connect to your server? Is your server public? Are you using the REST endpoint to connect to your server? This is different than the URL you use to connect in ArcGIS Desktop. It would be something like this:

http://<your server>/arcgis/rest/services/<service name>/MapServer

Thanks,

Mike

Just an FYI

The "My Contents" Feature for ArcGIS.com still does not work.

At the following site search "Creating Maps".

http://www.arcgis.com/help/help.htm

Under Adding layers it states "NOTE: Only ArcGIS Server map, image, and feature services can be added to the map. Other layer types, such as layer packages, are not supported at this time."

I hope they get this feature fixed soon.

Still not working as of 29Oct10?! Seriously? This was supposed to be a selling point... (For shame. Are you getting this ESRI?)

I am experiencing this problem as well.

I have a public map service:

http://maps.gov.bc.ca/arcserver/rest/services/eteam/eteam/MapServer/9

I just get a message that says "Loading..." for over 30 mins

See attached.

I am assuming any map service you add has to be in the same projection as the base (eg: Bing = Mercator)

Thanks for your help.

Susan,

Looks like you've encountered a bug, as the loading message should not be displaying when the URL is incorrect. The URL to your server you need to enter is this:

http://maps.gov.bc.ca/arcserver/rest/services

Then you should see the list of your services. You can add the eteam service as a whole. You can't add individual layers inside a service separately, however.

Thanks,

Mike

Thanks Mike...solved my problem....

Still no word as to this feature in ArcGIS.com (11/29/2010)

Unable to load data into the base map from the "My Contents" folder which contains layer packages.

Was this not one of the key selling points of the ArcGIS.com (ArcGIS Online) service when ESRI presented this at the 2010 User conference?

http://proceedings.esri.com/dvd/uc/2010/uc-index/uc/workshops/tw_669.pdf

I went back through the above PDF but it is not clear.

I looked through my notes from Bernie Szukalski's talk and I circled and highlighted about this specific feature as a great solution for those users who can not afford the huge cost of setting up an ArcGIS Server.

I hope ESRI follows up and lets us know the status of this feature ever working?

EvaWillerslev

Precisely! ESRI told us many times that ArcGIS Online was a great solution for those users who can not afford the huge cost of setting up an ArcGIS Server. It's just so annoying that it doesn't work without the ArcGIS Server! ESRI: please come on: when will it work as promised?

Jin Lee,

What version of ArcGIS Server are you running? I suspect ArcGIS Server .NET v 9.3.1 with IIS.

I believe you've encountered a bug. The problem is you have a folder name that begins with a number. This causes the server to return some invalid information, and thus, arcgis.com can't connect to your server. You can either upgrade your server to the latest version, or simply try renaming your folder named 2005 so that it begins with a letter.

Thanks,

Mike

JinLee

Thanks for the tip Mike. it fixed my problem.

Are we still not able to add layer packages from My Content when creating a map in ArcGIS online?

Mike Minami

Hetal,

Soon, you'll be able to make web services out of your data by purchasing a subscription to ArcGIS Online. Here's a thread with a link for more information.
