Calling custom toolbox from ArcObjects

ModyBuchbinder — Tue, 30 Jun 2020 10:00:59 GMT

Hi All

We have a problem with calling our toolbox from ArcObjects.

Check the attached screen shot. The toolbox exists, it was created with the same version of ArcGIS, it include one simple tool.

It all works just fine on my machine but we tested it on a few machines on the client site and it fail with the error message you see.

Anybody have any idea what is wrong?

Thanks

Have you background processes in ArcGIS enabled or disabled ? (see the Geoprocessing Options dialog box)

If you use custom tool use:

IGeoProcessor2 IGeoProcessor2 gp = new GeoProcessor() as IGeoProcessor2;‍‍‍

If 'Embed Interop Types' is set to true then omit the 'Class' at the end of the type (GeoProcessorClass -> GeoProcessor() )

and check that you have target 'x86' in VS and not 'Any'

Hi,

have you registered your toolbox class with EsriRegAsm.exe application on all client machines?

Hi Fabiano

What do you mean?

The code is AddIn it does not required registration and we run from VS so it register automatically everything.

Please explain

Sorry, maybe i misunderstood.

Is Your Geoprocessing a Custom geoprocessing (developed with arcobjects)? Or, simply, you have an addin that "launch" a "simple" geoprocessing tool (system tool or, anyway a tool build by model builder/python)? in this last case, i musunderstood

I am running a GP tool that I wrote in Python

Ok.

Is the Custom toolbox created by code or by desktop?

Do you have any ArcGIS desktop on the client site machine to try to launch the tool?

It is all very simple (that is why I am lost).

Everything in done on a single machine with ArcMap, VS and ArcObjects.

I created very simple Python script. Create a toolbox from it (simple toolbox not python toolbox).

I run the tool from ArcMap with no problem.

I created a VS solution trying to call the same tool and it fail.

Thanks
