Proxy page in .NET?

ionarawilson1 — Mon, 07 Oct 2013 14:00:05 GMT

If my server is .NET (IIS), do I follow the steps to create a proxy page in ASP.NET or Java/JSP

I am creating a javascript web app, but I am not using Visual Studio to create it, just aptana.

Hey Ionara

Did you get solution for your proxy page. Because I am also doing the same proxy setUp for my arcGIS server for my print functionality (arcGIS 10.1). Please let me know if you find anything.

Thanks

Mandeep

Ionara,

I use the latest proxy from the resource proxy on github Esri/resource-proxy · GitHub‌ If you are using IIS then just use the .Net proxy. You would only use other versions of the Proxy (like java version) if you where using other webservers besides IIS.

I am following the readme file for .Net proxy. My webpage is hosted on separate external server and my GIS server has all map services. According to readme file of .net proxy, we should create Application pool in GIS server and then include code in my application. But I read online that you are supposed to keep proxy folder in the same location where your webpage is. I am little confused on how should I proceed further as I am new to esri. Appreciate your help.

Thanks

Mandeep,

The readme.md under the DotNet talks about

Install the contents of the DotNet folder as a .NET Web Application, specifying a .NET 4.0 application pool or later
then edit the proxy.config to add serverUrls

I just created a "proxy" folder under my wwwroot on my webserver set it as an application in IIS (Convert to Application option when you right click on the folder in IIS) and set its application pool to .NET 4.0 or higher as mentioned earlier.

Thanks. I did create an application pool but still i am not able to see that Print button in my application. And I wanted to ask one more thing, that after setting up proxy we are supposed to check if its working through http://myserver/Proxy/proxy.ashx because I kept my proxy.config and proxy.ashx in Proxy folder in wwwroot. But it gives me error saying that The requested URL /Proxy/proxy.ashx was not found on this server.

Do we need to restart our server for putting proxy in action.

Thanks

Mandeep, When you added the files to your web server did you actually put those files in a folder called "Proxy"?

Mandeep,

So if you go to your web browser and type http://localhost/Proxy/proxy.ashx?http://services.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/?f=pjson‌ in the addressbar to you still get the error that the resource was not found?

Yes, I am sti;; getting the error. My server name is arcgis01.madisoncty.com and it's not able to recognize the Proxy folder at all.

Mandeep,

Have you checked that IIS is running on that machine.
Do you have other web apps on the same machine that are running properly.
Did you setup the "Proxy" folder as an application in IIS (it does not appear so as there is no Web.config file)?

1. IIS is running fine.

2. There is one more application where we see all our map services "arcgis" and it is working fine.

3. I tested with Web.config file too but it didn't make any difference. I have kept it now in Proxy folder.

Services hosted on other webapp named arcgis can be seen in http://arcgis01.madisoncty.com/arcgis/rest/services‌

But I did notice one thing that arcgis application is assigned to ArcGISWebAdaptorAppPool and this adapter is attached to .net v2.0 in Application pools as we have both v2.0 and v4.0 for .net. Does this can create any problem.

Thanks

Mandeep
