The ArcTool works fine in foreground, but fails when the background processing option is selected.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>The failure occurs on the line where I am using a Con statement with FocalStatistics to create a temporary raster. The GDAL driver tries but fails to create a temporary grid (g_g02) under "C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS\Desktop10.1\bin64". I don't have permissions to write in that directory and would prefer it be put somewhere else even if I did.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I made sure that I have my system environmental variables for TEMP,TMP and ARCTMPDIR all set to "E:\Temp" and my scratchworkspace setting is "E:\Temp\scratch.gdb". I also checked to make sure that the input raster for FocalStatistics does exist and doesn't have any problems. All my input and output data are being stored on local drives.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Any suggestions would be welcome.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks,</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Steve</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 07 May 2013 11:27:13 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/problems-with-temporary-rasters-using-64-bit/m-p/693954#M39404 StevePeaslee 2013-05-07T11:27:13Z Re: Problems with temporary rasters using 64-bit background processing https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/problems-with-temporary-rasters-using-64-bit/m-p/693955#M39405 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>I'm not sure that I can call this truly solved, but as a workaround, I found that if I converted "E:\Temp" to an ArcInfo workspace with INFO directory, the polygon to raster conversion seems to work fine.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>-Steve</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 10 May 2013 12:04:08 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/problems-with-temporary-rasters-using-64-bit/m-p/693955#M39405 StevePeaslee 2013-05-10T12:04:08Z
