(i.e. F:\arcgisserver\arcgisoutput) Whenever an upgrade was done, it reset this back to C:\arcgisserver which would not be recognized by the application when looking for the attachments in the F:\ folder. Once I set it back to F:\ the error went away. (You must make sure that the F:\ folder has the correct permissions, etc.)</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>So, I think the issue in our case was specific to our custom installation of AGS.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Jim</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Mon, 21 Apr 2014 15:23:52 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-rest-apis-and-services-questions/attachments-throw-error-server-error-the-remote/m-p/59937#M270 JamesLandwehr 2014-04-21T15:23:52Z Re: Attachments throw error: Server Error - The remote server returned an error: (500 https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-rest-apis-and-services-questions/attachments-throw-error-server-error-the-remote/m-p/59938#M271 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Thanks Jim,</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I'll work on this clue....</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 23 Apr 2014 05:54:31 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-rest-apis-and-services-questions/attachments-throw-error-server-error-the-remote/m-p/59938#M271 JonGarrido 2014-04-23T05:54:31Z
