CreateMapTilePackage_management Error 10054

JamesCrandall

Pretty straight forward script to build a .tpk from an existing .mxd that contains the desired feature class.  In fact, when the ArcToolbox is run on the same .mxd it completes as expected.  When I copy and paste the script from the Geoprocessing results window into a standalone .py script, it fails with the below error:

This error is due to Background 64-bit Geoprocessing.  See THIS thread.

To fix I simply forced the script to run C:\Python27\ArcGIS10.4\python.exe, which I put into a .cmd text file.  This works perfect since I planned to run this from the Task Scheduler anyway!
