Attempting to add Operational Layer in MPC Errors

AlexMahrou — Thu, 24 Jan 2013 22:12:53 GMT

10.1 SP1
ArcGIS for Windows Mobile 3.1

So I'm attempting to add an Operational Layer to my new project and I'm getting the error:

"Object reference not set to an instance of an object."

Am I doing something wrong? I am using the IP address of my server as it's not live yet with a FQDN. Do I need to include a port number? I'm just typing in http://serverip/arcgis/rest

Am I missing something?

Hi Alex,

Yes, at ArcGIS 10.1 for Server the URL of a mobile data service takes new format & requires port number after server name:
http://<servername>:<port number>/arcgis/services/<foldername (if applicable)>/<servicename>/<servicetype>

See Mobile data services Help topic for additional information
http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/#/Mobile_data_services/015400000451000000/

Cheers,
Denise
