arcgis 10.1 sp1 geometry service Buffer is not working

Hi,

I am using a Buffer tool of "http://myserver/arcgis/rest/services/Utilities/Geometry/GeometryServer" in my project. I got error message "Unable to complete operation".

- {Error code '400': 'Unable to complete operation.'Wrong unit type (expected linear unit, got angular unit, or vice versa)}

But it works fine if to use http://tasks.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/Geometry/GeometryServer instead. Also, my geometry service works fine when to use Simplify, Relation, Union. only the Buffer dose not work.

Please advice!

Thanks,

Tom

Hi,

I made this buffer tool works to use our geometry service. I have to set Geodesic = True. I have found that ArcGIS online geometry service dose not have this option. It seems ArcGIS online is using old version of ArcGIS Server.

It would be great if you could let me know why I have to set Geodesic = True when to buffer. or is this a bug for 10.1 sp1?

Thanks,

Tom
