Invalid value for parameter

AriRaimundo — Mon, 05 Jul 2010 16:20:30 GMT

Hi guys,

I'm trying to consume a geoprocessing service that I've published in ArcGIS Server 9.3.1 (SP1) that contains an input parameter of type GPFeatureRecordSetLayer. This parameter was created in ArcCatalog using a schema-less FeatureSet.

My client application uses Geoprocessor class of ArcGIS API for Microsoft Silverlight/WPF just like the sample "Clip_Features". I first tried to consume using Silverlight without success and then I tried with REST web interface but I got the same error (Invalid value for parameter X).

Is there any known issues of using schema-less parameters?

See below parameter that I'm trying to pass through web interface.

{ 
    "geometryType" : "esriGeometryPolygon",
    "spatialReference" : {"wkid" : 31984},
    "features" : 
    { 
        "geometry" : 
 {
     "rings" : 
            [
                [
                  [739374.29,8853590.48],
                  [742721.27,8853590.48],
                  [742721.27,8857347.57],
                  [739374.29,8857347.57],
                  [739374.29,8853590.48]
                ]
            ]
 }
    }  
}

Thanks in advance.

Ari,

This is a known bug fixed in 10.0
NIM045046: For geoprocessing services, Execute Task or Submit Job fails with error "invalid value for input" if the input features do not have a defined schema.

Thanks

Ravi,

There's no workaround or some patch that I can install in 9.3.1 SP1 version?
Thanks a lot.

Ari,

I am not aware of any workaround solutions to this issue. There is also no patch available for 9.3.1 at this time. As mentioned earlier this is resolved in 10.0.

Thanks
Ravi

I am not sure why using a geoprocessing service published in ArcGIS Server 9.3.1 (SP1) with no input parameters (all values of the tool Manage Map Server Cache Tiles are coded in the python script) runs fine in ArcCatalog and when consumed in a REST page with SubmitJob returns the following:

    * esriJobMessageTypeInformative: Submitted.
    * esriJobMessageTypeInformative: Executing...
    * esriJobMessageTypeInformative: Executing (FullCache): FullCache
    * esriJobMessageTypeInformative: Start Time: Sat Oct 23 08:33:06 2010
    * esriJobMessageTypeInformative: Running script FullCache...
    * esriJobMessageTypeInformative: Failed to execute. Parameters are not valid. ERROR 000562:   Admin privileges not available. Failed to execute (ManageMapServerCacheTiles).

I have been able to make it at work after installation of SP2 on both Server and Desktop (9.3.1).
