Good.
I've been trying to import a shape to ArcGIS Online on several occasions and do not let me. Send me the following error message:
Failed to import shapefile.
Invalid Shapefile: SHP file missing

I created a folder with these four files:. Shp,. Shx,. Dbf, and. Prj. After that it became became a zip file. Not because I can import it.

thanks

Hi,
There is not enough information here to diagnose your problem. If possible could you post your .zip file and we will take a look for you? If not then i'd recommend reading through the help on Importing Shapefiles, and specifically the tips section at the end.

This shapefile does not import as the zip file is badly constructed - it contains a sub folder called provcnt2 which then contains the files. Create a new zip file without the subfolder and the import will work just fine.

(Una otra cosa mas - Hace dos años viajé por Panama - es un país muy interesante. Visité algunas de tu puntos, incluido Bocas del toro y David.)

Mike thank you very much, now if the import works.

(If Panama has good beaches and excellent tourist spots)
