Hello,
After reading the below thread , we find out that the binaries referenced requires ArcGIS Server 10 or ArcGIS Image Server 9.31 , in our case , we have ArcGIS Pro 2.8 , ArcGIS Enterprise 10.8.1 , ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9 . the ECW.zip Plugin referred to in the below thread is not compatible with the above mentioned releases , the question is from where shall we download those files that are compatible with the above releases! , does ESRI have them or shall we contact Hexagon to have them? , in the other hand , what are the steps required to be done to enable the ArcGIS server 10.8 , 10.9 able to publish ECW image services , do we need only the place the above binaries under the ArcGIS Server installation bin directory or do we have to do other steps!
FAQ: What is required to serve ECW images in ArcGIS Image Server? (esri.com)
Thanks
For working with ArcGIS Enterprise 10.8.1, you need ECW for ArcGIS Server Plugin 2020 for Windows Update 2 . Please check the link for more details. In case of any further query on it licensing, please contact Hexagon Geospatial.
Hope it helps.
