Error synchronizing edits with server from AutoCAD

RandallClark2 — Tue, 12 Jan 2016 18:50:27 GMT

Moved from ArcGIS for Server

Update:

i have 4 services that i am bring in to my cad document. one is polygon, one is line and two are point services.

When i add features and go to synchronize with my server i get the following message, twice

MyMapService: Errors encountered in adding features. error processing server request.

when its over it tells me that the only features that updated were to the line and polygons. the points failed to update. Oddly i can delete features tho.

anyways when i go to check the AGS logs i see the following

Message: Method failed.HRESULT = 0x80070057 : The parameter is incorrect. (more)

Tagert: Landscape/L_Site.Mapserver

Code: 100005

Method Name: GraphicFeatureServer.Add

So it seems the error only happens on my services that are point geometry.

Any thoughts?

original post:

So after adding features to my feature service layer in AutoCAD when i go to sync my edits back up to the server i get the following error

Message: Method failed.HRESULT = 0x80070057 : The parameter is incorrect. (more)

Tagert: Landscape/L_Site.Mapserver

Code: 100005

Method Name: GraphicFeatureServer.Add

Can any give some in-site as to what this means?

Hey Randall,

What is the URL you've used to add the service to AutoCAD? Also, would you be able to install Fiddler (https://www.telerik.com/download/fiddler https://www.telerik.com/download/fiddler) to see what HTTP requests are being made when you attempt to sync, and what the response may be?

Hi Scott,

its point to out public facing url* http://afgisweb/fullerton/rest/service

on further investigation it seems that i can delete features just not add them.

I can down load fiddler. What am i looking for when i use it?

*regardless of it being public you can not access from outside the network due to the firewall

Hey Randall,

I would recommend using the fully qualified domain name when adding feature services through ArcGIS for AutoCAD (ex. https://myserver.esri.com/arcgis/rest/services/EditableServiceName/FeatureServer), this is just a best practice but not necessarily required.

In Fiddler, you will want to verify that traffic you're triggering in AutoCAD is showing up in the logs. If this is successful, you would want to try identifying all requests that AutoCAD is making to your service. This can help clarify if AutoCAD is sending a bad request (invalid parameters, malformed url, etc.) or if the server has returned the error. The HTTP status code will be one of the columns in your Fiddler logs. Ideally, every request would be 200 (successful). Here is a link listing all HTTP status codes that could occur: List of HTTP status codes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Fiddler will give you a lot of information to go off of. The HTTP status code is a starting point, giving you an idea of what's going on between AutoCAD and your ArcGIS Server. Depending on these results, you can see whether the issue lies on the client (AutoCAD) side or the server (ArcGIS Server) side.

Hi Scott,

Thanks i will try using fully qualified domain name and see how that goes and see if i have better luck.

If that doesnt help i will lokk at fiddler

Re: Error synchronizing edits with server from AutoCAD

RandallClark2 — Thu, 14 Jan 2016 23:03:40 GMT

So it only happens on feature service that is points.

Im going to try fiddler but im also going to xpost in arcgis for autocad.

Randall, rather than creating a new question in the other location, if you just add ArcGIS for AutoCAD in thread thread, it will be posted there. I suggest doing a cut and paste from the other new post Failure to synchronize features when added in autocad when the feature service is points in this thread, and delete the other. You can also just use Moving Content and move this thread to the autocad location. No need to duplicate a post. Thanks.

Maybe a dumb question, but, was Sync checked on when setting up the service? By default it is off.

Re: Error synchronizing edits with server from AutoCAD

RandallClark2 — Fri, 15 Jan 2016 15:32:53 GMT

Not a dumb question, but yes Sync is checked.

It gets more interesting as some services will sync and others won't, for example when I bring services that are lines or polygons I can make edits in cad have those sync up.

Its only on a service that is a point gemotry.

MichaelMiller2 — Fri, 15 Jan 2016 15:37:47 GMT

Do your point features have M values? You can check by the feature class properties and on the General tab under Geometry Properties. If a feature class has M values, it's not possible to edit correctly via a web service.

Hi Rebecca,

Thanks is for the feed back on the cross post.

i updated this post with the information from ArcGIS for AutoCAD post and added the Arcgis for Autocad tag.

i tried to delete the other thread but i can actually figure out how to do that.

For the time i will leave it here and if i cant get it resloved over the weekend i will move to the ArcGIS for AutoCAD place.

Re: Error synchronizing edits with server from AutoCAD

RandallClark2 — Fri, 15 Jan 2016 15:57:27 GMT

Hi Michael,

Just checked none of the point features in my database have M values.,

RebeccaStrauch__GISP — Fri, 15 Jan 2016 16:16:33 GMT

It does take a bit to get used to the flow of the forums, but once you get it, it works great. The other thing is you can actually delete the other, if you haven't already, instead of just leaving my duplicate message. That will stop anyone from accidentally replying there instead.

Hope me you find an answer...sorry I cant actually help.

Re: Error synchronizing edits with server from AutoCAD

RandallClark2 — Fri, 15 Jan 2016 16:22:12 GMT

Actually you help. I cant figure out how to delete my other post.

Care to enlighten me?

Re: Error synchronizing edits with server from AutoCAD

RebeccaStrauch__GISP — Sun, 17 Jan 2016 15:15:43 GMT

Randall, actually I couldn't see how to delete it either, although I think you can. Of course, typically "we" wouldn't want others to delete their threads since the way the forums work is for others to read and see how others resolve things, so maybe it's not an option to delete, even if duplicate threads. I'll tag Timothy Hales to see if he can delete the duplicate .. Failure to synchronize features when added in autocad when the feature service is points

timothy, if deleting dupes is still allowed be th OP, it might be a good post be you on the geonet help page (I didnt find one in my search). Thanks.

Hi Randall,

Just a few more questions and observations in case some of that helps:

-What is your ArcGIS Server version that hosts your Feature services?

-Any chance that the difference between the ones that allow you to add or update feature attributes and the ones that give you the error message is a Date field in the latter ones? In other words, do the ones that give the error have a Date field whereas the ones that work fine do not have a Date field?

Re: Error synchronizing edits with server from AutoCAD

RandallClark2 — Thu, 21 Jan 2016 21:29:47 GMT

10.3.1 - i will update my post to reflect that.

And no, the only date field im am using is the last_create and last_edit fields that are added by the Enable Editor Tracking

Re: Error synchronizing edits with server from AutoCAD

ChristoforosKatsaounis — Fri, 22 Jan 2016 00:24:01 GMT

Thanks for checking that Randall. The two fields created by Editor Tracking would still count as Date fields. From what we have gathered so far (10.3.1 server, presence of Date fields, and that specific error message), this looks a lot like a known issue I also encountered recently in another similar case:

BUG-000093410: Not able to sync back edits from ArcGIS Server 10.3.1 feature service in ArcGIS for AutoCAD when a date field is present

This issue has been taken care of with the 10.4 release. In order to confirm that it is the same known issue above could you publish another feature service without Editor tracking enabled and test with that one as well?

Re: Error synchronizing edits with server from AutoCAD

RandallClark2 — Tue, 26 Jan 2016 23:18:29 GMT

Hi Christoforos,

That seemed to do the trick.

I went through my usual routine for creating feature class, minus enabling editor tracking, and then publish a service to me server and brought it to AutoCAD and yup it seemed to update with new features just fine.

Thanks for your help

Re: Error synchronizing edits with server from AutoCAD

ChristoforosKatsaounis — Wed, 27 Jan 2016 17:14:40 GMT

Randall - that's good to hear, thanks for testing this out and confirming that disabling editor tracking (and making sure that there are no other Date fields) gave you a workaround for now at least.

As for the 10.4 release - that is scheduled to be released within the first quarter of 2016.
