Problem using local web services in JavaScript API

JonBarlett2 — Thu, 09 May 2013 16:47:15 GMT

Good Morning. My organization has recently installed ArcGIS Server and I have been able to successfully create some map services and use them to build ArcGIS.com maps and Silverlight Viewer applications. I have previous experience with JavaScript and really want to use the JavaScript API, however, I have not been successful in utilizing MY services in any of the JavaScript examples. I am able to download and use the JavaScript samples on my webserver, but if I switch the reference to one of my ArcGIS.com webmap IDs(using my services), the map is blank. In the geocoding sample, if I switch the geocoding services to hit my geocoding service (instead of ESRIs),the geocoder doesn't work (it does in Silverlight). In the REST services page I am able to successfully test the services using the JavaScript API. I have read that I might need to setup token authentification or a proxy page, but I am able to consume and publish the services using Silverlight. I am using 10.1.

Any guidance would be appreciated

Without seeing code it is difficult, but due to cross site scripting, you need a proxy page.

This is definitely the issue if your local services are on a different server from your application.
