Locator does not work once it is published to ArcGIS Server (10)

PaulSprague — Mon, 16 May 2011 13:08:51 GMT

I created a US Address - single house locator. The locator works when I reference it within a folder.
(Find>Locations>Folder>locator)
The problem is that when I publish it as a service, (Find>GIS Servers>Server>Locator)
I get the error message "There was an error trying to find the candidates. The Coordinates or Measures are out of bounds"

Any suggestions?

Thank you
Paul

The point feature class had M values in it. While not a problem in 9.3, ArcGIS 10 looked at is as multipoint feature class.

So, I assume, that if a single point feature class has M values it is defined as a Multi Point Feature Class somewhere, although it does not explicitly say MulitPoint Feature class in the Properties Dialogue. Apparently the M value did not cause any problems with 9.3 locators or, the M value in 9.3 did not change the feature class from Single Point to Multi Point.
