Editor task Submit Attachment Troubles

AHay — Tue, 16 Aug 2011 06:15:34 GMT

We have been having some problems with the attachments and the edit widget.

We had this all working fine and then it stopped when we migrated servers 😞
we can view attachments through the editor widget we just cannot submit them :-((

we choose the file to attach, its name comes across to attachment widget but then we cannot click the "submit" button, the "cancel" button works but cannot submit new one.

Image Attachment1.png = cann access attachment
image atatchment2.png = can get name across to editor widget
image attachment3.png "submit" button changes colour on hover but no action on click

i can add attachments with desktop, and i can view and add them through rest interface just not through the editor widget.

Anyone have any ideas?
** a possible cause may be that we have changed default arcgisserver directory (i.e cache input output etc directories folder from c:\ to d:\ -- could this cause problem

We usually use chrome as browser i used IE and it threw and error YAY! any one know what this error means (smiley face was not in orig)

Hay,

Sounds like permissions issues. Do you still have the old c: drive arcgis server folder if you do check the permissions that are set for the ArcGIS folder and it's sub folders and mirror them on the d drive. This is really a ArcGIS Server configuration issue so a call to esri Tech support will likely serve you best.

Hi Robert,

yes is a permissions issues but turns out it is a proxy issue,
i have to use the new proxy .ashx and config files from
flex api site
http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/flex/help/index.html#/Using_the_proxy_page/017p0000000v000000/

do you have any experience with proxys?
the new proxy uses appsettings tag in webconfig to store proxy connection info. do you have any idea of the required syntax for appsettings tag in web config

A Hay,

I don't use a Proxy but I would guess that the app setting would be:

    <appSettings>
        <add key="username" value="username"/>
        <add key="password" value="password"/>
    </appSettings>
<!-- I normally have appSettings right above connectionStrings -->
    <connectionStrings/>
