I have published a Feature Service, however am unable to edit it. I try editing in ArcMap and receive two messages: "No editable layers" and "The workspace containing this data cannot be edited." I have registered the data source and versioned the geodatabase. What else may be the issue?

Okay, perhaps you can try stopping your service, adding global ids to the feature class, and restarting the service. Also, make sure your geodatabase is upgraded to the current release you are using.

If you are just looking to edit, have you tried using the Flex viewer?

Hello - did you ever find a resolution to this?  I'm having similar issues with an ArcGIS 10.1 feature service.

Thanks,
Lisa

Are you able to successfully make edits via the REST endpoint? You could test this by adding the feature service to an ArcGIS Online map (Add layer from web --> http://[...]/FeatureServer) and see if you can make edits. If you use Mozilla Firefox, add & open the Firebug add-on (with Net & All tabs selected) and see what Response the POST applyEdits operation receives.

I know this will not solve your problem, but it will help narrow down the issue.

Hello

Does this process work if you just want people to be able to make selections on the service in ArcGIS? I don't want anyone to make edits just be able to make selections based on other attributes, graphics, etc..

Thanks

I am not able to do edits using the REST endpoint. In FireBug, I receive:

{"error":{"code":400,"message":"Unable to complete operation.","details":[]}}

Was this issue ever resolved? I am having the exact same outcome - I can not edit a feature service in the rest endpoint. The dataset is versioned and has globalids.

I am experiencing this same bad syntax error. I have been trying to diagnose the problem by republishing a new feature service, but no success.

I have no problem web editing through flex applications or through AGOL. My feature class is registered for versioning but I am editing it as nonversioned. I am publishing a connection to my sql server with a role established for editing.

My local copy in desktop is from the feature service and is created in a file gdb. Nothing I am doing is throwing any obvious red flags with any of the research I have done.

Leland Snyder‌, did you ever find a solution? We are seeing this "Bad Syntax" at 10.5.1 now, looking at the same workflow.
