ArcGIS Server 10.3 - Could not create object 'ConfigurationFactory'

AndrewHenry · ‎06-24-2015

Hi,

I have successfully installed ArcGIS Sever 10.3 on Ubuntu but when I try to create a new site I get the error message:

0x80040154 - Could not create object 'ConfigurationFactory'.

I have attached the log contents from the time I start the server to trying to create the site. I know Ubuntu is not supported but I would be very grateful for any suggestions.

Cheers,

Andy.

Andy,

It sounds like one or more of the required packages are missing or corrupt.

In particular I would check to make sure you have the Mesa GL libraries installed.

If you run the <installation path>/server/tools/serverdiag/serverdiag script, does it pass the 'Check installed packages' test?

Greetings Andy,

As you've already stated technically Ubuntu is not one of the supported Operating Systems for an ArcGIS Server Linux install. Please see the link below:

System requirements—Installation Guides (10.3 and 10.3.1) | ArcGIS for Server

I do agree with Danny that most likely you are simply missing a package. The above link will also supply a list of packages as well for the supported versions. This will probably add some insight to the missing packages for your Ubuntu instance.

I hope this information helps.

Thanks Daniel and Dustin for the feedback however after installing, what I think are all the necessary dependencies I am still getting the same error. Interestingly when I run the serverdiag script I get this ouput:

esri@zoo:~$ arcgis/server/tools/serverdiag/serverdiag

Do you think the N/A's are an issue? I am considering a fresh install to see if anything changes.

DanielUrbach · ‎06-25-2015

Andy,

More than likely those N/A's are the result of the serverdiag script being written specifically for Red Hat and Red Hat-like operating systems. I don't think it is expecting a Debian-based OS.

Did you also install the 32 bit versions of any of those packages you installed?

Can you specify the exact package name for the Mesa GL library you installed?

AndrewHenry · ‎06-25-2015

Hi Danny,

the Ubuntu version is 14.04. I did not install the 32 bit versions of any

packages. Here are all the mesa installed

Apologies for the crappy formatting!

DanielUrbach · ‎06-25-2015

Also, what version of Ubuntu are you running?

AndrewHenry · ‎06-25-2015

Hi again Danny,

the copy and paste messed up a bit. I have re-pasted here. Again the formatting is awful!

Andy,

For what it's worth, I managed to get ArcGIS Server 10.3.1 working on Ubuntu Server 14.04 after installing the following packages (all 64-bit):

gettext

libgl1-mesa-dri

libglib2.0-0

libglu1-mesa

libxext6

libxtst6

x11-xkb-utils

libx11-6

libxdmcp6

libxrender1

libxau6

xvfb

If you can verify that these packages are installed, and all of the other requirements are met and it still gives you that error, I recommend trying a reinstallation.

AndrewHenry · ‎06-26-2015

Hi Daniel,

thank you for all the feedback. I really appreciate it. It is good to know you got it working!

It now seems like my issue is with xvfb...which doesn't want to start!
