Stephen, Yes does seem to be the way things are going and I am happy with the Creative Cloud concept however in this case it appears that you are buying a product outright (i.e ArcMap + ArcGIS Pro) however it stops working if you dont pay maintenance. This is a completely different concept and as far as i'm concerned quite worrying. It would be great if someone from ESRI Inc could clarify the situation as I must say the paradigm shift has not been explained well (and based on this thread understood well!). Cheers, Stuart

I assume your using a version of ArcGIS Server other than 10.3. This was a bug resolved in the latest release (should make the logs a bit more usefull!) Cheers, Stuart

Thanks Peter, That helped me find the issue which was an entry in the bottom of /etc/hosts that looked like this: 127.0.0.1 cradle11d.thelist.tas.gov.au Removing the entry fixed the issue.

Hi, We have a 10.1 linux ArcGIS setup with two machines as part of a cluster. This has been functioning well however yesterday in order to backup the site we removed both machines from the cluster (cradle11d.thelist.tas.gov.au and cradle12d.thelist.tas.gov.au), backed the site configuration up and then created the site using the original site configuration and added the other machine to the cluster. This worked fine with the exception of the cradle11d.thelist.tas.gov.au machine now being recorded in the site configuration (machines) as LOCALHOST. We have since tried creating the site on both nodes and adding the other node, this still results in the incorrect hostname for cradle11d.thelist.tas.gov.au. Prior to the backup the machine name AGS was using was cradle11d.thelist.tas.gov.au. I have confirmed that the linux hostname is correct (cradle11d.thelist.tas.gov.au) and also the value recorded in postinstall.dat is correct (cradle11d.thelist.tas.gov.au). Has anyone experienced this behavior and/or deos anyone know where AGS server would be picking this hostname up from. Thanks, Stuart Fletcher

Would make managing ArcGIS server sites accross lrage organisation much easier.

Hi there, We are in the process of setting up an ArcGIS Server 10.1 cluster under Linux and are attempting to use a clustered file system for the sites config-store and directories. The clustered file system is to ensure no single point of failure for the server cluster and uses Gluster (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GlusterFS). At this stage we can setup to nodes as part of the cluster however when we attempt to publish services via ArcGIS Desktop we are getting errors relating to the GPServer crashing and issues with changing the status of the jobs. See the log errors below. These issues do not occur if we mount the site on a standard mount. Has anyone attempted this (and got it working) or are there better alternatives to a single site configuration that provides a level of redundancy? Thanks, Stuart <Msg time="2012-11-23T11:14:47,123" type="SEVERE" code="8252" source="Server" process="14771" thread="44" methodName="" machine="node1" user="" elapsed="">Instance of the service 'System/PublishingTools.GPServer' crashed.</Msg> <Msg time='2012-11-23T11:15:00,11' type='SEVERE' code='20025' target='System/PublishingTools.GPServer' methodName='GPServerSync.ExecuteJob' machine='node1' process='15412' thread='26' user='arcgis' >Execution of job jbd1b215eac524bfcabc45ac0a9aa8215 failed.

An update on the issue: ESRI have updated their 10.1 documentation to reflect the above solution: http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/index.html#//01550000042s000000 However it doesn't look like all components of ArcGIS Server honor the WebContextURL parameter. One example is publishing a service for Mobile Data Access. ArcMobile accesses the services via SOAP and the SOAP WSDL still returns invalid soap address with both reverse proxy addresses. See fragment of the WSDL below: <service name="Catalog"> <port name="ServiceCatalogPort" binding="e:ServiceCatalogBinding"> <soap:address location="http://developext.thelist.tas.gov.au, develop2.thelist.tas.gov.au/arcgis/services/BaseMaps/Topographic/MobileServer"/> </port> </service> Regards, Stuart Fletcher

I had a response from Esri in relation to this issue. It can be fixed by updating an ArcGIS parameter called WebContextURL . See: http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/server-admin-api/serverProperties.html - Go to: http://arcgisserver_address:port/arcgis/admin/system/properties - Click on "Update" - In the open window put the following: {"WebContextURL": "http://externalsite_address/arcgis"} - Click Update. This should also let you have different REST paths i.e /myserver/rest/services Cheers, Stuart Fletcher

Hi there, We have an ArcGIS Server 10.1 instance that sits behind 2 corporate reverse proxies (Apache). Basically in this configuration: ArcGIS Server ---Reverse Proxy 2---- Internal Site ----Reverse Proxy 1---- External Site The reverse proxies we are using utilise Apache and are configured based on the info below Reverse Proxy 2 configuration: ProxyPass /arcgis/rest/ http://arcgisserver_address:6080/arcgis/rest/ ProxyPassReverse /arcgis/rest/ http:// arcgisserver_address:6080/arcgis/rest/ ProxyPass /arcgis/tokens/ http://arcgisserver_address:6080/arcgis/tokens/ ProxyPassReverse /arcgis/tokens/ http://arcgisserver_address:6080/arcgis/tokens/ ProxyPass /arcgis/services/ http://arcgisserver_address:6080/arcgis/services/ ProxyPassReverse /arcgis/services/ http://arcgisserver_address:6080/arcgis/services/ ProxyPass /arcgis/sdk/ http://arcgisserver_address:6080/arcgis/services/ ProxyPassReverse /arcgis/sdk/ http://arcgisserver_address:6080/arcgis/services/ Reverse Proxy 1 configuration: ProxyPass / http://internalsite_address/ ProxyPassReverse / http://internalsite_address/ This largely works ok however some components of the ArcGIS server REST endpoint do not function correctly as it appears that some of the java libraries used by the pages appear to pickup the fact that the request has been parsed through via a reverse proxy and utilise one of the following HTTP headers X-FORWARDED_HOST or X-FORWARDED-SERVER. This works ok when there is only 1 proxy however when there are two (or more) proxies these headers contain a comma separated list of all proxies. I.e in the case of the above example: X-FORWARDED-HOST = externalsite_address, internalsite_address This causes issues with many rest pages that when returned have malformed URLs as they contain multiple comma separated domains including the javascript map preview, the wmts capabilities and the links at the top of all rest pages (to name a few). This can be fixed partially by modifying some of the JSP files used however it is not possible with some such as the the page you are redirected to after login. Fixing the JSPs involves converting the urls to just the absolute path not a fully qualified url. This is not an ideal solution and will cause maintenance issues in the future. The best overall solution would be for ESRI to look at changing the behavior of some of the classes used including: com.esri.discovery.app.util.DiscoveryUrlUtil com.esri.client.app.util.ClientUrlUtil com.esri.rf.util.RUtil I wouldn't have thought we are the only organisations using a chain of reverse proxies. Has any one else experienced these problems and if so how have you dealt with them. Thanks, Stuart Fletcher

Hi, Is it possible to alter the paths using only reverse proxies. I.e. http://externaladdress/agserver/rest/services >> http://internalserver:6040/arcgis/rest/services On the surface it looks like ArcGIS server hard codes absolute hyperlinks in the rest pages which causes issues. Thanks, Stuart Fletcher

Try something like the example below where the measure tool deactivates and activates the identify onclick functionality. Make sure you call activateIdentify() in the init() function. var identifyListener; function activateIdentify() { identifyListener = dojo.connect(map,"onClick",executeIdentifyTask); } function deactivateIdentify() { dojo.disconnect(identifyListener); } measure() { deactivateIdentify(); map.graphics.clear(); var tb = new esri.toolbars.Draw(map); dojo.connect(tb, "onDrawEnd", function(geometry) { tb.deactivate(); //var points = geometry.paths[0]; var lastPoint = geometry.getPoint(0,0); var symbol = new esri.symbol.SimpleLineSymbol(esri.symbol.SimpleLineSymbol.STYLE_SOLID, new dojo.Color([255,0,0]), 3); map.infoWindow.setTitle("Measurement"); measureDistanceHandle = dojo.connect(map.infoWindow, "onHide", function(){ map.graphics.clear(); dojo.disconnect(measureDistanceHandle); }); //dojo.disconnect(handle); map.graphics.add(new esri.Graphic(geometry, symbol)); var lengthParams = new esri.tasks.LengthsParameters(); lengthParams.polylines = [geometry]; lengthParams.lengthUnit = esri.tasks.GeometryService.UNIT_METER; lengthParams.geodesic = true; geomService.lengths(lengthParams, function(result) { map.infoWindow.setContent("Length: "+ Math.round(result.lengths[0]*10)/10 + " Metres"); map.infoWindow.show(lastPoint,map.getInfoWindowAnchor(lastPoint)); }); activateIdentify(); }); tb.activate(esri.toolbars.Draw.POLYLINE); } Regards, Stuart
