esri:MapProgressBar stuck at 96%

PLadd — Tue, 31 May 2011 14:25:49 GMT

I'm using the esri:MapProgressBar which works well except for one map service. It keeps getting stuck at 96%. If I pan the map ever so slightly, it will go away. Only to return again later. If I remove the map service, the others work just fine. I've isolated it to the Topo map service, which uses 2 ft contours and a TIN but they are cached.

Why won't the MapProgressBar go away?

Thanks.

I am not 100% sure but when you created your tiled service and if u checked the option "Create tiles on demand" the server will try to create tiles when it doesn't find tiles at that resolution and creating the tiles usually takes lot of time and hence the progress bar might be stuck
As I said I am not sure but that could be one of the reason. Try disabling that option and try it

"Create tiles on demand" is not checked.

Thanks for the suggestion doc.

I was turning off the layer in code at the same time that I was turning the layer on elsewhere in the code. MyMap didn't know if the layer was coming or going so it just stood there.
