Server Manager logs say drawing error, invalid column name?

We recently updated some field names, then changed them back after some issues, in one of our Enterprise services. 

Looking the map, the layer is fully drawing and all symbology, labels and pop-ups are how they should be. 

However in the Server Manager logs, it is spitting out constant errors about the layer saying:

There is an error drawing layer: *layer name*
There is an error during the draw *layer name*. Attribute column not found [42S22:[Microsoft][ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server][SQL Server]Invalid column name *old field name*,(2.) ] [*layer name*][STATE_ID = 12].

 

Is it getting hung up on an old field name? We have already repathed the symbolgy, pop-ups and labels to the current field names as well as in the Visualisation tab of the feature layer (unable to do in the map image)?

Did you delete the layers from the Pro with the field name changes?  I'm thinking that the Pro project is still looking for those field names somewhere in the project like ghost field names.

If it's not too much work maybe recreate the project and publish and see if those errors persist.

Hi @MichaelVolz, thanks for your response. 

The layers were already published to Enterprise, and we just applied changes to the field names from the database so they do not sit in a project. They are referenced layers so any changes flow without needing to publish again, we are getting that error in the change log for the published service in our Enterprise

I thought the workflow would be that you would need to overwrite the service with a project that has the layers.  That is the workflow that I would use.

Hi @MichaelVolz , do you mean overwrite the layer/service?

Hi @Hayley just want to add to @MichaelVolz here.
As I read this it is as you are using a Referenced Database.
And if so like we do on Oracle example ArcGIS needs Admin SDE Schema User where ArcGIS Enterprise DB Infra is saved.
That said you should NEVER change the field names in DB for Tables that are used as source for Referenced Services. You should always do the change in ArcGIS Pro through Field Designer option.
Also if done this it is not always needed to overwrite the Service but if you are cloning content between stages it is highly recommended.
So that is my take on this matter.

Hi @GoranGobac, yes we did make the changes in ArcGIS Pro in the Field Designer. 

Can you explain what you mean by needing Admin SDE Schema User?

Hi @Hayley  if you are using Oracle DB as Geodatabase than you will have to have an SDE User.
SDE is a Oracle Schema name that is used standardly with ArcGIS Enterprise.
Under this user you will have necessary ArcGIS Enterprise Structure (Tables and Views) 
This User has Admin Privileges in ArcGIS Enterprise.
ArcGIS Enterprise is using this user as broker between ArcGIS Enterprise and Oracle technology.
Under this User information is saved like which Fields from a table are shown in your published Service in Portal. That is why if a change is done directly on Oracle the SDE User will not get this Info and therefor this Field wont be visible per Default as wenn you do the same in ArcGIS Pro. 
More to this topic you can find here
