Here is the update: In my scenario, there are two systems: one "internal" and one "public." The data is replicated from internal SDE to public SDE, then a map/feature service is published using the internal SDE as the Publisher database, and the external SDE as the Server database. At one point, all of the passwords in the internal SDE were changed at once. At that time, I updated the appropriate SDE connection files and re-imported them to the ArcGIS Server data stores. When this problem presented, and all other options were exhausted, I did that step again. This resolved the issue, though I'm still trying to figure out exactly why. There are a few things about this scenario which still don't add up for me. First, I could not reproduce this error in either test or development environments, and second, the internal database credentials should not have been a factor at all. This points to an anomaly in the production environment, or a variable I haven't yet considered. Scott: database authentication, unchecking all except Query: still failed. Map service would publish, but wouldn't render (discovered this after my initial post). Feature services would be created, but would not start.

The problem doesn't exist in my test environment (also v10.3) and this has all been working fine until recently; I'm trying to figure out what change could have occurred to cause the problem. The problem occurs with new and old mxds. I appreciate the replies, everyone! Looks like Esri support is the next step. I'll post an update when it is resolved. Thanks again.

No special characters, and if the IP address was the issue, no services would publish at all. In this case, a service with Mapping capability only will publish and start successfully. It is only Feature Access capability which is affected.

Thanks Steven. There is only a single data source in the mxd, and I'm using data which I know to be associated with pre-existing services which are running correctly. I thought permissions initially, too, but I'm not aware of any changes having been made to permissions, and this system has been working for some time. I forgot to include the message I get in ArcGIS Server when I try to start the service: Service failed to start ServiceName.MapServer: machine.domain.name Can not open file path\arcgisserver\directories\arcgissystem\arcgisinput\ServiceName\extracted\v101\ServiceName.msd. The system cannot find the path specified. Probable cause: The file is inaccessible to Server. So, it says "Server" can't get to the file. BUT, didn't "Server" create the file? The service gets created, but simply won't start.

Thanks for the reply. There were no errors on analysis, and all data stores validate successfully.

Thanks Philip. I did see that, but we don't have Portal configured. To be thorough, I removed underscores from the service name, leaving only regular English letters. There was no effect.

Jayanta: thank for the response. There appears to be no problem with the connection parameters or the registered store. A service with only Mapping will publish successfully; it is only when I add Feature Access that this problem occurs. EDIT: at this stage, I thought that the Mapping-only services were OK, as the publication mxd reported a successful publish process. However, I later discovered via the JavaScript viewer at the REST endpoint that the Mapping-only services were not rendering. Further digging revealed the service's status in AGSManager was "Stopping..." and would not be started.

I just tried to publish a feature service, and I get two errors: First, in Desktop, I get this error: "Packaging succeeded, but publishing failed. ERROR 001369: Failed to create the service. Please consult the GP Results Window for enhanced error description or contact your administrator for the server logs." (no useful info in GP results window) Then, I log into Server Manager, and the service is there, but is stopped. I try to start it, and get these errors: Error executing tool.: ERROR 001369: Failed to create the service. Failed to execute (Publish Service Definition). Failed to create the service.: ERROR: Service failed to start, Internal server error. Core server call to create service failed. Initialization failed. The Layer:'LayerName' in Map:'Dataframe' is invalid. The base table definition string "tablename" is invalid. Failure to access the DBMS server. I can publish the same data as a simple Mapping-only service successfully. To my knowledge, nothing about the permissions on the server have changed. Any idea how to start troubleshooting? Also note: everything is configured appropriately for the feature service capabilities, there are no errors on analysis, etc. Thanks! SQL Server 2008 R2/AGS 10.3

I'm describing a scenario where the editor does fill in the field. So the field isn't null. It is the presence of the No Nulls constraint which seems to inhibit the "Done" button -- even when the field is not null.

I have several web maps published for our organization's users. A common request is to select a bunch of features in the map, and then view those records in the table--as you would create a selection set in a map document. I can't find a way to select multiple features in the map using the ArcGIS Online map viewer. Is this possible?

‎06-02-2015

I'm going to say it's bytes. Although I confirmed with IT that the database settings are indeed generous and could support absurdly large records, logic suggests these must be bytes. I would welcome any recommendations on how to confirm. Thanks!

I am troubleshooting an issue I suspect is related to database size. After enabling Attachments on a feature class, there is a resultant table called FeatureClassName_attach, and that table contains a field called DATA_SIZE. What unit is this field in? No matter what unit I guess, the result seems crazy, and I can't find a definitive answer in the documentation. Thanks! DT10.2.2, SQL Server 2008R2, SDE gdb 10 & 10.2.2

When you use Collector app to take pictures of features, the picture is stored in a BLOB field which is created when you use Catalog/gp to enable Attachments on the feature class. The resulting images can be rotated successfully in ArcMap, but the rotation is only for the current mxd, and does not correct the underlying data. There is no mechanism for rotation in an ArcGIS Online web map. Is there a way to permanently rotate the picture in the underlying data? This question is not version-specific, but for extra info: I use DT 10.2.2 and DT 10.3. The SDE version is 10.2.2, database version SQL Server 2008 R2, iOS is changing constantly, but is always current.

A vendor was hired to create a custom application. That custom application requires map services, which will be served by the existing ArcGIS Server site I administer. What is the best way to port services/service definitions to test and production environments? I don't want my staff to get stuck recreating the vendor's services, IT won't let vendors into my production environment (not sure I would either), and there are no parameters in the test Map Service Definition file which I can adjust to spontaneously create the new service in prod. The only solution I can think of is to require the vendor to provide a python script which authors the service. Then vet the script, and execute. Am I missing alternatives? Thanks!

Yup, that was it. Thanks!
