Max Domain Code Count

CaseyBentz — Tue, 21 Dec 2010 19:49:16 GMT

I noticed that in my Server Manager Console, I see an error, 'Total number of coded domain values in this service exceeds the MaxDomainCodeCount, hence operation can not be performed.' I found documentation on this error and it states that you can add the <MaxDomainCodeCount> tag to the cfg file. I did this and changed the value a bunch of times, be still get the same error message. I restarted the SOM after each change, but still not getting the desired result. I set it at 1500000 just to see if that would work and it still didn't. Does anyone have any experience configuring a service to return a large number of coded values?

I am coming across this same error. Did you ever find a solution for it?

Thanks,

I found that I placed the tag in the wrong part of the config file. I was adding it to the end of the file, as its own tag, but it belongs in the properties tag. Once I plaved the tag inside the properties tag and restarted the SOM, it worked.

<Properties>
  <FileName>TransAndDist.msd</FileName>
  <OutputDir>d:\arcgisserver\arcgisoutput</OutputDir>
  <VirtualOutputDir>http://servername/arcgisoutput</VirtualOutputDir>

  <MaxImageHeight>2048</MaxImageHeight>

  <MaxImageWidth>2048</MaxImageWidth>
  <IsCached>false</IsCached>

 </Properties>

It took some digging, but here is the location of the configuration files referred to above:
...\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS\Server10.0\server\user\cfg\maps

I just came across this problem with ArcGIS Server 10.1. The problem was I had a coded domain with 1000+ items on it (Street Name) which was applied to almost all the layers in the map. Removed the values and the error disappeared. I guess one could hide the column from the web service if required?
