ArcGIS API for Flex 3.0 Prerelease - Export Web Map

ShaunWeston — Wed, 04 Apr 2012 23:39:14 GMT

I've been playing around with the new printing functionality with AGS 10.1 and using Flex API 3.0 to try and do some printing, which seems to work pretty well when I use this GP service as the PrintTask:

http://servicesbeta2.esri.com/arcgis/rest/services/Utilities/PrintingTools/GPServer/Export%20Web%20Map%20Task

But when I try setup my own one, I always get the "Unable to complete operation" error message:

http://remote.splicegroup.co.nz/arcgis/rest/services/SpliceGroup/ExportMap/GPServer/Export%20Web%20Map

So, not sure what's going on here. Both the gp services are exactly the same, just on different servers.

Shaun,

Actually they are different... You should be using this URL instead.
http://remote.splicegroup.co.nz/arcgis/rest/services/Utilities/PrintingTools/GPServer/Export%20Web%20Map%20Task

Yeah that one doesn't work either. I guess it's something to do with my server.

Shaun,

Here is some fiddler debuging details that I get when trying to use your server to print:

This is what I get returned:
[Fiddler] DNS Lookup for "vm-srv103.splice.local" failed. No such host is known
This is the url it is attempting to use when the task completes and it is trying to display the pdf:
http://vm-srv103.splice.local:6080/arcgis/rest/directories/arcgisoutput/Utilities/PrintingTools_GPServer/_ags_038b73230f3e4258b028ae30509592bb.pdf

If I replace the first part of the url with http://remote.splicegroup.co.nz/ than it works fine
http://remote.splicegroup.co.nz/arcgis/rest/directories/arcgisoutput/Utilities/PrintingTools_GPServer/_ags_038b73230f3e4258b028ae30509592bb.pdf

Sounds like you have something wrong in the web adapter configuration (don't ask me what that is to new for me to know much about it).

Cheers Robert, I thought it might be that. We've got a reverse proxy setup and yeah I need to change a few things there.
