Layer Package does not open in AGX

DanielSchober — Fri, 08 Apr 2011 09:10:16 GMT

Hi there,

I have uploaded this layer package from ArcGIS Desktop 10 to arcgis.com.

When I try to open it in AGX, it says the file is not valid. Both attempts, opening directly from arcgis online and also after downloading the lpk without success. There are no problems opening it with ArcGIS Desktop though.

Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

Cheers,
Daniel

Daniel,

I downloaded the LPK and opened it up in ArcGIS Desktop. The layer is broken when I open it in ArcMap. When I look at the package location (browse windows explorer) there is no data in the package, only the LYR file.

It would seem something went wrong with the creation of the layer package. Might be best to resolve this one through Technical Support, rather than the forum.

Mark

Hi Mark,

thank you. I got it resolved. I was trying to create a layer package from a Memory Feature Class. This does not work unfortunately. The tool Layer to KML does not have a problem with a Memory Feature Class. Might be something to consider for the next release and for http://ideas.arcgis.com/

Cheers,
Daniel
