Can't get my data to show in Silverlight

StephenLead

Hi everyone,

I need some help with a quick ArcGIS Server question. I'm running ArcGIS Server 10 on XP, with Visual Studio 2010 and Silverlight 4.

Everything is working correctly when using the sample ESRI servers, but I'm having problems with my Silverlight app seeing my ArcGIS Server services.

A simple example using a sample ESRI server is:

<UserControl x:Class="SilverlightApplication1.MainPage"
   xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    xmlns:esri="http://schemas.esri.com/arcgis/client/2009">
    <Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot">

        <esri:Map x:Name="MyMap" >
            <esri:ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer ID="StreetMapLayer"
           Url="http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/ESRI_StreetMap_World_2D/MapServer"/>
        </esri:Map>

    </Grid>
</UserControl>

This opens correctly and shows a world map. If I replace the URL line with Url="http://qsq-brcon15-pc/ArcGIS/rest/services/Atlas_geology/MapServer"/> the app opens and shows the "powered by ESRI" logo, but no map content is shown. If I open the Rest Services page, I can see that this is a valid tiled service (full details below). If I choose "View In ArcGIS JavaScript" the dataset displays correctly.

The same thing happens with Feature and Dynamic layers. It appears that Silverlight is installed correctly, and ArcGIS Server is working correctly, but for some reason they're not talking to each other.

Do you have any suggestions for how I can debug this?

Thanks,
Steve

Do you have clientaccesspolicy.xml or crossdomain.xml file on your web server? Please see the following for more info:

1. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc197955%28VS.95%29.aspx.

To debug, you can use Fiddler and investigate the web requests and responses there, so you'll know at which step it failed to load/initialize your layer.

Genius - that was the problem. Thanks very much for your help! That blog post is great.

Thanks also for the tips on Fiddler, which may prove useful in further debugging.

Slightly unrelated question.... In the ESRI blog post there is some C# code:

private void layer_InitializationFailed(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Layer layer = sender as Layer;
MessageBox.Show(string.Format("Layer '{0}' is currently unavailable. Error: {1}",
     layer.ID, layer.InitializationFailure.Message));
}

What's the VB.Net equivalent? I've tried the code below but this doesn't show an error message when I deliberately use a layer which doesn't exist:

Private Sub layer_InitializationFailed(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
        Dim layer As Layer
        sender = layer
        MessageBox.Show(layer.ID, layer.InitializationFailure.Message, MessageBoxButton.OK)
End Sub

Thanks,
Steve

JenniferNery

I think you were close but you missed the TryCast.

Private Sub layer_InitializationFailed(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
 Dim layer As Layer = TryCast(sender, Layer)
 MessageBox.Show(String.Format("Layer '{0}' is currently unavailable. Error: {1}", layer.ID, layer.InitializationFailure.Message))
End Sub

This is a useful link for C# to VB conversion: http://www.developerfusion.com/tools/convert/csharp-to-vb/

awesome, thanks again.

awesome, thanks again.

Hi Stevel,

Did you get any success? I am also facing the same problem, I tried with SilverLight 4 + .NET framework 4.0 and ArcGIS Server 10, SilverLight 4 + .NET framework 3.5 and ArcGIS Server 10, still I am unable to see the map inside my SilverLight app. I tried clearing the REST cache, still no success, Now I will try with Fiddler.

If you know the solution, then please share with me.

Hi Varun,

I ended up using the JavaScript API, which suited my client's purposes better. So I haven't used the Silverlight API at all since I posted this question.

Sorry I can't help out.

Good luck,
Steve

Hi Steve,

Thanks for replying, I have solved the problem, you should have clientaccesspolicy.xml file in the webserver (iis) inside inetpub folder of the system in which ArcGIS SERVER is installed

Hi, first of all sorry about my english, it´s not very good.

I´ve just begin with silverlight and i have a problem. I copied a sample from resource center arcgis, Silverlight.
Everything is working correctly when using the sample ESRI servers, but I'm having problems with my Silverlight app seeing my ArcGIS Server services.

I have a layer from arcgis server with this url=http://dyc1/ArcGIS/rest/services/capa_00/MapServer
and i want to change my layer instead of the ArcGISDynamisMapServiceLayer from the sample of esri. I doný know what´s happening but i can´t view anything.

I created a similar aplication with Flex and everything it´s correct.

I use my computer like localhost

Did you download the SDK sample? http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/help/index.html#/Sample_Interactive_SDK/01660000000v000000/ Or are you copy-pasting code to a new silverlight app? Does it compile?

If your app runs just as the live sample but does not work when replaced with your service, you can refer to this blog post for trouble shooting blank layers: http://blogs.esri.com/Dev/blogs/silverlightwpf/archive/2009/08/24/Troubleshooting-blank-layers.aspx.

ClintGarrison

So, how do we fix the problem? I read the blog but it doesnt say how to fix it? Or am I missing something? I see the 2 errors /clientaccess.... and /crossdoamin.xml
but what do i do now?

Clint
