Cached Basemap Layer will not show up

justinsowers · ‎03-01-2011

I am creating a web application in Flash Builder 4 using the ArcGIS Viewer for Flex source code. I am having a problem getting my cached basemap, which is an aerial photograph, to show up when I run the application. The dynamic operational layers show up but the cached base map will not. When i change the basemap to dynamic, it will show up but when I try to zoom in all layers disappear. The zoom slider shows up and displays the correct scales but the basemap itself is blank. I can create a web application using the application tab in ArcGIS Server and it shows up and displays fine at all scales. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Here is the code I am using:

<configuration>
    <title>Barren County WebGIS</title>
    <subtitle>Justin Sowers - Geography 418</subtitle>
    <logo>assets\images\wku.jpg</logo>
    <style>
        <colors>0xFFFFFF,0x333333,0x101010,0x000000,0xFFD700</colors>
        <alpha>0.8</alpha>
    </style>

Nicholas,

If you look above you will see that he is only using his services and not any other cached Map services (like ESRI or BING).

that makes sense because the .sid is in utm and the other layer in the basemap as well as the data frame is in state plane. i went in and reprojected the other layer in the basemap and set the data frame to match the aerial photo. i republished the service but it still has a wacky value as the x origin. here is what the REST endpoint service gives me now:

Origin:
X: -5120900
Y: 9998100

Spatial Reference: 26916
Intial Extent:

XMin: 572246.770967992
YMin: 4061427.66298877
XMax: 635836.039181945
YMax: 4115977.66563461

Justin,

I would say that you have one bad sid in the bunch that the cache is getting that wacky value from. This has happened to me in the past.
