Publish call failed on ArcGIS Online / Portal

[PaigeLester1]

Anyone seen this error message before?

I was trying to overwrite a hosted feature layer on ArcGIS . The feature layer is not editable, but is sync-enabled. Any help would be appreciated.

Hope either one work around can help:
1) Stop the service, which is unable to publish (overwrite)
2) Publish it to overwrite it
(OR)
1) Stop the ArcGIS Server service (windows)
2) Delete the lock files in directory C:\arcgisserver\directories\arcgissystem\locks
3) Start ArcGIS Server Service (windows)
4) Publish to overwrite the service

The first one for AGOL and second one for ArcGIS Portal

I am attempting to publish to ArcGIS Online, so how does one stop the service when I don't have access to the server? What am I missing?

What is the error message that you are receiving in GP results window?

You can't stop the services in ArcGIS Online like you can with ArcGIS Server but there are ways to troubleshoot this. Are there any replica's associated with the feature layer? Are you able to create an SD file?
