Issue with Publishing "Own Data" in Flexviewer 2.2

parikshitranade

I am new to ArcGIS viewer for flex. I downloaded flex viewer 2.2. I edited the config.xml file and I am able to customize UI (logos, widget tray etc.) and display it in the browser.
However I cannot publish my own map service. It displays blank screen (although ESRI online service base maps are visible). My Service is blank at the full map extent as well.

I made sure
1. Service is running and URL is correct (also double checked in ArcGIS service directory and service manager)
2. Tried both TILE and DYNAMIC option in config.xml.
3. Placed crossdomain.xml file in web root directory.
4. Have same projection as ESRI online maps (WGS 1984 Web Mercator (Auxiliary Sphere))
5. Optimized map service using 'Map Service' toolbar in ArcMap.
6. Checked and adjusted initial extent in 'config.xml' but DONT KNOW HOW TO SET FULL EXTENT.

I DONT KNOW IF IT PROXY ISSUE AND IF IT IS THEN HOW TO FIX IT.

I referred to videos for flex viewer and forum to look for answer. Materials from Robert Scheitlin were of great help.

Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I was finally able to publish my own data with Flexviewer. It was CROSSDOMAIN file issue. I referred to

http://www.senocular.com/pub/adobe/crossdomain/policyfiles.html#cross-domain-policy
I used most permissive policy.

Thanks to Robert, I used FIDDLER as per your suggestion and it confirmed issue with crossdomain.

Thank you so much Robert. That was a serious commenting error.

You are correct, I used FASinst instead of standard ArcGIS instance name during installation.

I tried modifying code as you said. But the new code did not work either.

Actually I also tried modifying original flex viewer config.xml (where I just changed the service URL to mine and did not comment out or modify anything else), but no luck. I just changed service type from tiled to dynamic.

I am still wondering what is going wrong.

Parikshit,

You have an issue with the commenting out of items in your config.xml:

You have:

<map initialextent="-9359000 5171400 -9118000 5264300" top="40">
        <basemaps>
            <layer label="Streets" type="tiled" visible="true"  alpha="1"
                        url="http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/World_Street_Map/MapServer"/>

        </basemaps>
        <operationallayers>
            <--layer label="Boundaries and Places" type="tiled" visible="false"

                   url="http://sampleserver3.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/Fire/Sheep/FeatureServer"/>
        </operationallayers>
    </map>

It needs to be:

<map initialextent="-9359000 5171400 -9118000 5264300" top="40">
        <basemaps>
            <layer label="Streets" type="tiled" visible="true"  alpha="1"
                        url="http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/World_Street_Map/MapServer"/>
            <layer label="Aerial"  type="tiled" visible="false" alpha="1"
                        url="http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/USA_Topo_Maps/MapServer"/>
            <layer label="PLD"  type="dynamic" visible="true" alpha="1"
                        url="http://parikshitgisser/FASinst/rest/services/fire/MapServer"/>
            



     <!--layer label="Hybrid" type="tiled" visible="false"  alpha="1"
                        url="http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/World_Street_Map/MapServer"/>
            <layer label="Hybrid"  type="tiled" visible="false" alpha="1"
                        url="http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/World_Street_Map/MapServer"/-->

                        
        </basemaps>
        <operationallayers>
            <!--layer label="Boundaries and Places" type="tiled" visible="false"
                   url="http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/Reference/World_Boundaries_and_Places_Alternate/MapServer"/>
            <layer label="Fires" type="feature" visible="false" alpha="1"
                   info="widgets/InfoTemplates/SimpleInfoWinWidget.swf"
                   infoconfig="widgets/InfoTemplates/IWT_Fires.xml"
                   url="http://sampleserver3.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/Fire/Sheep/FeatureServer"/-->
        </operationallayers>
    </map>

So just to verify when you did your ArcGIS server installation you choose to not use the standard ArcGIS instance name and you used FASinst instead?

Hi Robert,

I am working on creating a SDE service for web editing, But I also need some basemaps of my own. I tried to publish data from "ESRI data for ArcGIS server CD" as a MXD based map service. I also tried to publish layers in their as an image service. It all shows up in Server manager fine, but no luck with Flexviewer. Service URL is correct as well (as shown in REST service directory)

I dont know if I am making some basic mistake?

Attached is the config.xml and crossdomain file that I am using. (its TXT now, XML wouldn't upload)

I kept crossdomain file is under C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Crossdomain.xml

Many thanks
Parikshit

Parikshit,

SDE is by far the standard and will allow for web editing. ESRI published a white paper some time ago that a File Geodatabase is the most responsive. But if your ultimate goal is web editing than SDE is the only option for you.

Hi Robert,
Thank you for suggestion. I realized it later so I am trying to publish layer (.lyr) and other files.
Could you suggest best/easiest data type to publish on server with flexviewer.
I need to enable web editing and I am trying to publish SDE data too.
I will update if other data type works.
Thanks
Parikshit

Parikshit,

I have not seen this behavior, but I don't publish map services with shapefiles either. Shapefiles are great for backward compatibility but are not great at all for web stuff.

Hi Robert,
I updated all ArcGIS server, ArcMap and ArcSDE with SP1 and Rebooted the server. I still had no luck with publishing my own data in Flexviewer 2.2.
I am trying to publish a simple dynamic map service with hardly 4 point feature points (for testing purpose). It is a simple shapefile.
The service is running and I can create "out of the box" application from server manager (.NET)

Hi Robert,
Thank you very much for the help. I am learning a lot here.
I will do that ASAP and post the update.
Thanks again.

Parikshit,

Unfortunately the very first thing I would do is upgrade ArcGIS Server to SP1 as there were some issues with 3857 and 102100 addressed in the service pack.

parikshitranade

Hi Robert,
Thank you for the quick response.

I am using ArcGIS server 10 and ArcMap/ArcCatalog v 10. I think my service WKID is 3857. (I am not sure though, is it same as spatial reference ID then that is 3857)

My service URL looks like this. Servername is 'parikshitgisserv'
http://parikshitgisser/FASinst/rest/...ervs/MapServer

It looks like this under REST directory.

Parikshit,

Which version of ArcGIS Server are you using? What is the WKID of your map services when you look at them in the REST Services Directory?
