Network Analysis Service will not Solve Route

JohnPapageorgiou — Sat, 19 Jul 2014 08:24:26 GMT

Hi,

I created a network analysis service of the Phoenix Metro area that works in ArcMap, the route solves. However, when I insert the NA Service REST URL in a basic javascript api, the route will not solve. Any ideas as to why this may be? The data is in NAD83 Arizona State Plane Central Intl Feet. I followed the steps here ArcGIS Help 10.1 to create the service, and used the code sample at the end to test it. I also used the code here Find a route | ArcGIS API for JavaScript to test as well. Attached is the code with the REST service URL I used, the map zooms to the area of interest. The errors that appear in the javascript console in Chrome do not make sense me (I have attached them as well). Any help is appreciated.

thanks,

John

John,

The first issue I see is the URL to the route service:

routeTask = new RouteTask("http://masgis2.asu.edu:6080/arcgis/rest/services/jpapageo/Road_Network_Maricopa_Co_v4/MapServer/NAServer/Route");

should be:

routeTask = new RouteTask("http://masgis2.asu.edu:6080/arcgis/rest/services/jpapageo/Road_Network_Maricopa_Co_v4/NAServer/Route");

Robert,

THANK YOU! This has been a headache for days. The instructions gave me the impression that all I needed to do was copy and paste the REST URL, apparently "MapServer" needs to be eliminated and "Route" needs to be added at the end. Hopefully that can be added to the instructions somehow, or maybe it was written somewhere and I missed it. Either way thanks, it works now, the routes it gives are a little odd, but nevertheless it does draw one from point A to point B, better than before.

Thanks,

John
