Google Street View Widget

The widget was working fine but for some reason I am getting this error now:
[FaultEvent fault=[RPC Fault faultString="Unable to complete Project operation." faultCode="400" faultDetail="Service 'Geometry' of type 'GeometryServer' does not exist or is inaccessible."] messageId=null type="fault" bubbles=false cancelable=true eventPhase=2] Can someone tell me what this means? Thanks.

Which version are you using, and what is the exact name of the widget in your widgets folder?

I am using 3.0 and the widget is StreetView.

The problem with our Esri Flex community is that there is very little teamwork between developers and no team versioning done between development efforts, and therefore you saying "Google Street View Widget" can refer to multiple entities written by different people.

Is it this widget: http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=f069d8a3aa304e29a432b48e5f64ca74 ?

Yes, thats the one.

This is the Geometry Server which is used in his code:
http://sampleserver3.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/Geometry/GeometryServer

It appears that Service is currently not running on that server, and therefore giving you the error message.

It is there, it's just extremely flaky.

If you keep reloading, you will see it come up about 4 out of 10 times......

Maybe you need to click at just the right time 🙂

sampleserver2 seems to stay up, might try changing it to that.

Hi,

I got the same error message, ESRI told me there is bug for the geometry service from sampleserver3, so I chnaged to sampleserver1.
The error message is gone, but there is no sreet view image show at the bottom.
Have you try use the geometry service from sampleserver1 or sampleserver2?

Thanks,

Zhujing

Alright guys I have to ask... If you have an ArcGIS server why are you not using your own servers geometry service?

Re: Google Street View Widget

TinaCanady — Thu, 14 Mar 2013 17:00:08 GMT

I did not know that you could use your own geometry service. Okay so in what file do I make the change at?

You will need to be running the source code, as that is set in the StreetviewWidget.mxml.

Alright guys I have to ask... If you have an ArcGIS server why are you not using your own servers geometry service?

If you are using a compiled street view widget (Flex Viewer 2.5), is there any way to update the geometry service to your own ArcGIS Server service? Does anyone have a compiled street view widget that allows a user to change the geometry service?

It looks like the ESRI geometry service is back...problem solved. I have to say I love all of these wonderful compiled widgets! Great work by Robert and all of the other people building the flex widgets.
