Marc: Are the file geodatabases that you are using dedicated to ArcGIS Server mapservices?  If so, you should make sure that there are no locks lingering around after you stop the associated mapservices.  Maybe the file geodatabases are also available to other endusers for their data which would place locks on the file geodatabases. Have you made sure that all services that are hitting the file geodatabases are stopped when you try to deleted the file geodatabases? Another solution that unfortunately would need more coding would be to truncate and append data from SDE to the file geodatabases.  This operation does not crash due to schema locks as the structure of the file geodatabase remains the same. ...

Michele: What exactly did you need to do in regards to the crossdomain.xml file in order to get past the 502 Error? Did you need to specify a rule in the Reverse Proxy server for the crossdomain.xml file?  If so, which rule did you use to pass the crossdomain.xml file? Your specific assistance is greatly appreciated. ... View more

Robert: So in Apache you do not place it in the root directory of the web applications which is c:\inetpub\wwwroot? Also, do you have your ArcGIS Server software on a Windows 2008 Server? If so, did you need to modify any application pool settings to get the mapservices to work properly through the Reverse Proxy server? ... View more

Robert: Can you at least tell me the location of where you put this file for the Apache Reverse Proxy software, so I can try to modify the location for the ForeFront Reverse Proxy software? Do you have your ArcGIS Server software on a Windows 2008 Server?  If so, did you need to modify any application pool settings to get the mapservices to work properly through the Reverse Proxy server? ...

Robert: Where do you place it on the Reverse Proxy server? Would I put it in a different location if I am using ISA or ForeFront? Your assistance is greatly appreciated. ... View more

I have the crossdomain.xml file on my v9.3.1 ArcGIS Server server at c:\inetpub\wwwroot.  The Reverse Proxy server allows this file through in the services rule.  The webpage allows the mapservices to be drawn even though a get a 502 error when Fiddler reads in the crossdomain.xml file with the internal server name instead of the external server name (The Reverse Proxy expert says that this error should prevent the mapservice from showing up, but it does any way). I have the crossdomain.xml file on my v10.0 ArcGIS Server server at c:\inetpub\wwwroot.  The Reverse Proxy server allows this file through in the services rule.  The webpage does not allow the mapservices to be drawn even as I a get a 502 error when Fiddler reads in the crossdomain.xml file with the internal server name instead of the external server name (This is the behavior that the Reverse Proxy expert would expect to see). Any idea why the FlexViewer application works in v9.3.1 and not in v10.0? Am I passing the crossdomain.xml through the correct rule on the Reverse Proxy server? ... View more

Robert: These are these lines of text from Fiddler that show crossdomain.xml.  Would you understand where this crossdomain is originating from as I do not understand? # Result Protocol Host URL Body Caching Content-Type Process Comments Custom 6 304 HTTP fpdownload.adobe.com /pub/swz/crossdomain.xml 0  text/x-cross-domain-policy iexplore:1356 # Result Protocol Host URL Body Caching Content-Type Process Comments Custom 6 304 HTTP fpdownload.adobe.com /pub/swz/crossdomain.xml 0  text/x-cross-domain-policy iexplore:1356 ...

I searched the entire c-drive of my new v10 ArcGIS Server (AGS) server and I could not find a crossdomain.xml file, but I am still able to see the mapservices when accessing the web app remotely away from the AGS server.  How is this possible? If I remove the crossdomain.xml file from my old v9.3.1 AGS server, I can not see the mapservices when accessing the web app remotely. So I ask again, is the crossdomain.xml file still needed in the v10 environment? ... View more

What operating system are you running the script from (Windows 2003 Server, Windows 2008 Server, other)? You might want to try calling the python script from a bat file. You might need to specify the full path to the python exe and the python script if you are not using an environmental variable to specify the location of the python exe. ... View more

I would look to use python for the iteration.  You can create the basic one time model and then export the model to a python script. You can then call the python script from a scheduled task or you can call a bat file that calls a python script from a scheduled task.  The bat file is especially useful if you want to run more than one python script in a sequence. ...

You might want to see if you could get ArcGIS v10.0.  This capability is nicely built into python scripting with examples and plenty of posts on this subject.  If you had 1 ArcGIS v10.0, you could always Save the mxds back to 9.3.1 after fixing the broken links. ... View more

Can you post the bat file that your co-worker tried to run? ... View more

You might also want to create an Environmental Variable called PYTHONPATH that points to the directory where you python.exe file is located.  Unless I added this Environmental Variable on my Windows Server 2008, I had to include the full path to the .py file and not just the name of the .py file itself. I also always call my .py files from a bat file. ... View more
