Unable to apply edits

JamesWhisenhunt — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 17:19:37 GMT

I am trying to create an application similar to the ESRI citizen request sample. I am running into a problem where I am unable to apply my edits. The error code is:

{"error":{"code":400,"message":"Unable to complete operation.","details":["Unable to apply edits"]}}

I have:

registered the feature class as versioned

permissions have been given. I am able to edit without problem in ArcMap; is there something else I need to do.

checked to make sure editing is enabled on the service

Any help is greatly appreciated.
James

Edits can frequently exceed the size of a GET, and may switch to a POST if the geometries are large. Make sure you have your proxy set up if that is the case.

Thanks for the reply; however, I don't think that is my problem. I am just adding a point feature so the geometry is not very big.

This proxy is the same as I have used on other servers so I think it is also configured correctly.

Thanks for the suggestion.

I had this same issue where I was able to edit in ArcMap but not through the feature service. I received the same error message ("Unable to apply edits") from the response and the error in the server log file was "This is a FACILITY_ITF error that is specific to the interface that returned this error. See the documentation of the interface that returned this error for information about this HRESULT."

Our feature class was contained within a feature dataset that had other feature classes with object class extensions. Removing the feature class from the feature dataset resolved the issue even though the feature class being edited did not have a class extension.

Hope this helps,
Jeff

Thanks guys for the help. The webpage I am trying to create is located http://agis21.frankfort.ky.gov/mobile/franklinmobile.html which should have all the information you need.

I am trying to edit a new feature class in a new feature dataset. There are no class extensions installed. I looked at the server log file and it gives me this error:

Method failed.HRESULT = 0x80070057 : The parameter is incorrect. .

Could this be a IIS configuration issue or a proxy issue?

As always thanks for the help,
James

It doesn't look like you are actually using a proxy for the POST. That's probably not it but just an fyi.

I wonder if your OBJECTID_1 field name is causing some confusion. It might be looking at your other field named OBJECTID which is null. That might cause an incorrect parameter error.

Before you get too frustrating with editing, your service doesnt work at all! you cant even query it

http://agis21.frankfort.ky.gov/ArcGIS2/rest/services/WebEdits/FeatureServer/0/query?objectIds=1&where=&time=&geometry=&geometryType=esriGeometryEnvelope&inSR=&spatialRel=esriSpatialRelIntersects&relationParam=&outFields=*&returnGeometry=true&outSR=&returnCountOnly=false&returnIdsOnly=false&f=html

returns "Unable to perform query"

right from the rest service, no web app involved.

I had it turned off. I was trying to get rid of the Objectid_1. It should work now.

Sorry about that. I ask for help then turn off the service.

Hello,

I don't know if any of this will help, but I had problems (and still do) with editing.
In order for my edits to work there are 2 things I must do.

1. Ensure my layer in SDE was created by manually adding the fields, and NOT by loading in a layer from shapefile or another SDE layer. It's crazy, and ESRI can't reproduce this behaviour, but it's true for me, I have to create a new feature class and add the fields one by one with ArcCatalog rather than importing the fields.

2. My layers in my MXD feeding the service must connect to SDE using an SDE service and NOT with Direct Connect.

It took me ages to work these out and get my editing working, but so long as I do the above in addition to the usual stuff then I can get it to work.

Mark.

OK i think i figured out your problem

According to your service

Extent:

    XMin: 5092236.84471448
    YMin: 3744333.20859535
    XMax: 5398097.78318819
    YMax: 4012334.36813001
    Spatial Reference: 3089

yet clicking on your map yields

adds [{"geometry":{"x":1477486.2739920334,"y":284517.4554125852,"spatialReference":{"wkid":2246}},"attributes":{"LastUpdate":null,"OBJECTID":null,"COUNTY":null,"Type":"Point1","Image_":null,"WebLink":null,"Comment":null,"COM":null,"EditorName":null,"requestdate":1323965159000}}]

Different Spatial reference, invalid xmin,etc.. is there a reason you are in two different coord systems?

Yes they are in two projections. I really didn't think about it I just used a cached service I already had. I will make the changes and see what happens.

Thanks for the help,

Well it will at least be worth trying to rule out as an issue

James,
Were you able to resolve this? I have the same exact issue.

Thanks

JamesWhisenhunt — Thu, 29 Dec 2011 00:17:11 GMT

I have not. There are a couple of things I need want to try; however, I have not had time due to the holidays.

This is my top priority after the first of the year. I will keep everyone posted.

Now that the holidays are over I have had time to look at this again.

My problem was the ArcGISSoc account needed to have grant privileges added to the feature class. This was a very simple solution that drove me crazy for a while.

Hi James,
I am hoping that you can help me. I am also trying to applyEdits with the use of the javascript REST API. I am getting an "Unable to apply edits" general error. I have seen documentation that says to apply write permissions to ARCGISSOC through the "database server" node of ArcCatalog. However, it seems as if the "database server" node works with a SQLExpress instance, not a networked SQLserver SDE geodatabase. I see that you mention "grant" permissions. I have gone into SQL, right-clicked (on the geodatabase, not on a specific featureclass table), properties, permissions tab, and checked the "grant" box for connect, delete, execute, insert, select and update. applyEdits is still not working for me. Can you tell me what I need to do to apply the proper permissions? Is there a place in ArcCatalog to set a write permission on SQL SDE...that you know of? Anything I need to do in ArcCatalog? Thanks for any direction you can give!

Re: Unable to apply edits

LisaT — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 15:46:19 GMT

Actually, I have found a way to "grant" permissions in ArcCatalog by right-clicking on the feature and choosing "privileges". The grant succeeds, but I am still getting an error with code 400-unable to apply edits. Just trying a simple delete for now...http of : myserverLocation/FeatureServer/0/applyEdits?deletes=3,7&callback=ags_jsonp.ags_jsonp_15_194815&f=json. I will continue trying things, but if anyone has any suggestions it would be much appreciated!

Re: Unable to apply edits

JamesWhisenhunt — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 15:48:44 GMT

Yes there is a place in ArcCatalog to apply permissions. Right click on the feature class or if your data is in a feature dataset right click on it and choose privileges. The next box is pretty self explanatory just give the ArcGISScoc View and Edit privileges.

Hope this helps,
James

Hi James, looks like we were submitting a thread at the same time! I found the 'privileges' choice and granted edit permissions to my ArcGISSom user. I am still getting the same error... :-(.
