Viewing the REST Services..

JoshV — Thu, 19 Aug 2010 16:28:57 GMT

This should be a pretty simple fix but it has slipped my mind at this point. I have been able to view the services running on my machine using http://localhost/arcgis/rest/services for the past few weeks but for some reason I get a Page Cannot be Found today. arcGIS Server is running and I was able to make map services through Catalog. Whats the deal here?

Many Thanks

If you have ArcGIS Manager installed, can you get to?:
http://localhost/arcgis/manager

Also try:
http://127.0.0.1/arcgis/rest/services or http://<machinename or IP>/arcgis/rest/services

You may also want to look in IIS to see how your bindings are configured.

Hi Paul-

I can't get either of those links to work. I still get a page cannot be found. What do I need to check for on the IIS side of things? I'm still able to create map services and view them but not much else.

I was having the same problem but found solution.

1.Remove the ArcGIS instance using AddInstance.exe. And recreate ArcGIS instance.
OR
2.Create another instance(ArcGIS2) and copy its rest.config file on to the old one. But do not forget to replaces instance name(ArcGIS2) to ArcGIS in the rest config.

I hope it works for your problem.

I assume you are using IIS7 or 7.5. If so, open IIS and expand the website folder where your ArcGIS server stuff is installed (probably Default Web Site). Expand the ArcGIS folder and click on the rest virtual directory. On the right side of the dialog, under the Action menu you will see a number of options. Under the Manage Application/Browse Application section click on one of the links that are provided. This section should provide you with links to the available bindings for your ArcGIS server sites. Another thing to check is the application pool that is being used for your application. If you are using AGS 10 you should be using the ArcGISServicesAppPool.

Thanks,

This happens to us pretty much every time we get a Windows Update. In our case, we also have ASP.NET 4.0 registered with IIS on the same machine & windows update feels the need to make that the only version of .NET that is allowed to run. To fix this - simply go to IIS manager, click on the Web Service Extensions node, make sure that ASP.Net 2.0 32-bit is "Allowed" instead of prohibited. It sounds like that could be your issue as well.

If this happens after a Windows update, check out:

Error: HTTP 404: "The page cannot be found" when trying to launch ArcGIS Server Manager

Another symptom could be receiving the "no resource could be found at that address" error when trying to open client connections to ArcGIS Server from Catalog...
