Why won't my ArcGIS API library download work on my local server?

ChrisSergent — Fri, 23 Jan 2015 21:24:56 GMT

After losing internet connection today, I decided to download the ArcGIS API for JavaScript Library 3.13. Our server is maps.decaturil.gov. I also tried the server name as well. I have the files in the folder that the documentation displays, but I receive an error telling that the files can not be found. What am I doing wrong?

Hi Chris,

have you changed init.js and dojo.js on your API to your host ?

here is the example

after that try to access your api on browser like this : http://yourhost/js/library/3.12/3.12/init.js‌ you will get js script on browser.

check all configuration correctly, create simple app like this :

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
  <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
    <title>Simple Map</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://yourhost/js/library/3.12/3.12/dijit/themes/tundra/tundra.css"/>
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://yourhost/js/library/3.12/3.12/esri/css/esri.css" />
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://yourhost/js/library/3.12/3.12/init.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
      dojo.require("esri.map");
      function init() {
        var myMap = new esri.Map("mapDiv");
        //note that if you do not have public Internet access then you will need to point this url to your own locally accessible cached service.
        var myTiledMapServiceLayer = new esri.layers.ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer("http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/NGS_Topo_US_2D/MapServer");
        myMap.addLayer(myTiledMapServiceLayer);
      }
      dojo.addOnLoad(init);
    </script>
  </head>
  <body class="tundra">
    <div id="mapDiv" style="width:900px; height:600px; border:1px solid #000;"></div>
  </body>
</html>

good luck

Yes, I tried both the server name and the URL for the server.

Paste the URL to the init.js or any other js file in your browser to confirm the path is correct.

You should see the JavaScript.

Like this: https://serverapi.arcgisonline.com/jsapi/arcgis/?v=2.7

Thanks, Esri is helping me now. They said that everything I am doing is correct. I will post the outcome here.

The issue that I ran into was that in IIS7 even thought I copied the folder into the correct folder, I still needed to add a virtual directory for thearcgis_js_api\library\3.12\3.12. I usually don't mark my questions as answered but since we figured it out I shall this time.
