Can ArcGIS for Windows Mobile b2550 SDK be installed alongside ArcGIS Desktop 10.1?

DavidMarley — Thu, 11 Oct 2012 13:22:30 GMT

Can the ArcGIS Windows Mobile SDK b2550 be installed alongside ArcGIS Desktop 10.1.

Currently my main development box has ArcGIS Desktop 10.0 and Windows Mobile SDK b2550. I need to upgrade to Desktop 10.1, but not sure if there is a compability issue with Mobile b2550.

I know that a newer Mobile SDK is out now (3.1) but would rather not upgrade that right now - unless apps compiled under b2550 can easily be recompiled with 3.1?

I have not gotten an answer to this yet, and unfortunately have not had time yet to test the different scenarios. Once I get a chance to test this, I will post my findings though.

All,

Yes, ArcGIS for Windows Mobile 10 Update 4 Build 2550 is compatible with ArcGIS for Desktop 10.1. However, you will not be able to take advantage of the new features and functionality available at ArcGIS for Desktop 10.1 or ArcGIS for Windows Mobile 3.1 if you remain at ArcGIS for Windows Mobile 10 Update 4. Yet I recommend you review the ArcGIS Resource Center links for What's New in the ArcGIS Runtime SDK for Windows Mobile 3 and Migrating your Applications to ArcGIS Runtime SDK for Windows Mobile 3 for more information.

Cheers,
Denise

Hi Denise,

If that is the case why do I get this error when I try and install AcrGIS Mobile 10 build 2550 on a machine with 10.1??
"One or more arcgis version 10.1.3035 products exist on your machine. You must uninstall them before installing ArcGIS Mobile 10."

Thanks.
Mick

Mick,

Can you provide a copy of Belarc Advisor Report run on your computer that provides this error? Belarc Advisor is a free PC audit software download that will build a detailed profile of your installed software and hardware, etc in Web browser format. Run it and send either the log file located at C:/Program Files/Belarc/Advisor/System/tmp OR save to your PC using Web browser menu File > Save Page As and if comfortable, share here as attachment or if not, let me know and I will provide my email.

Cheers,
Denise

Denise,

I'll see what I can do but being in a tightly controlled IT environment I cant just download and install programs. Is there any particualr info you are looking for I might be able to provide?

Has anyone else installed Mobile v10 (build 2550) alongside ArcGIS 10.1??

Thanks Denise,
I have attached the Belarc report pages and a capture of the error when attempting to run the install which says that you must uninstall any version 10.1.3035 products before installing ArcMobile v10.
The Belarc report will show I have ArcMobile v3 on there, that wasn't on there when i tried to intall ArcMobile10 so that is not part of the problem.

I have tried installing Windows Mobile 2550 alongside Desktop 10.1 and i get the same notification that Mick gets. It simply won't let me install it unless the machine is free of 10.1 products. Also when installing Desktop 10.1 I was prompted to remove Mobile 2550 before it would allow me to install 10.1.

Denise,
Any ideas how long it might take to confirm this one way or the other??

Mick,

I apologize for delay in the response, I've been out of the office on vacation over the holidays. After testing we have found you cannot connect to ArcGIS for Server 10.1 from ArcGIS for Windows Mobile 10.0 (OOTB or custom apps). It is recommended to migrate your custom ArcGIS for Windows Mobile 10.0 SDK projects to ArcGIS for Windows Mobile 3.1 SDK.
