I was able to reproduce this behavior when the data frame is set to a different coordinate system than the feature class the selection is applied to.  I was able to workaround this by going into the Environments > Output Coordinates and changing Output Coordinate System to 'Same as Display'. ...

Hi Turid, If 'GEOMETRY' is used for the DEFAULTS, then an F table should not exist.  An F table is not created for GEOMETRY or GEOGRAPHY data types.  When executing the 'Analyze' command, uncheck 'F' table and it should succeed. ... View more

Try describing the feature class using the 'sdelayer -o describe' command.  Here's an example: C:\> sdelayer -o describe -l RpJuridisklinje,shape -i sde:sqlserver:sde_server -D vector -u vector -p vector What is returned for the Layer Configuration? ... View more

Do you have an adequate amount of free space within your tablespace?  If your tablespace needs to allocate more space for each raster load, this will slow down the process. Also, is there any type of compression applied to the raster?  You can check this by right-clicking on the raster > Properties.  Here you can also check the 'Uncompressed Size'.  Is this also 100 MB? ...

Can you send a screen shot of your Parameters tab within the Script's properties? ... View more

Hi Vitor, At 9.3 or 10, an ArcGIS Server service that is accessing data within an SDE geodatabase will create a lock.  I'm not sure why your 'sdemon -o kill' command is not working, but stopping the services that contain SDE feature classes will remove any locks within the geodatabase.  If you are to get the 'sdemon -o kill' command to execute successfully, you will need to restart the services after your compress to access them again. ...

Before proceeding I would recommend to create a database backup.  Then, try executing the following query: for SQL Server update sde.sde_versions set name = 'DEFAULT' where version_id = 1 or if you're running Oracle update sde.versions set name = 'DEFAULT' where version_id = 1 Afterwards, try making a connection to the SDE geodatabase. ...

Are any of your feature classes existing in ArcGIS Server services?  The services will need to be shutdown in order to remove the locks. Also, does the geodatabase contain any replicas?  These will need to be synchronized before the compress. ... View more

Have you checked to see if the f63 tables exits?  You can also find out which feature class this is referring to by executing the following query: select table_name from sde.SDE_layers where layer_id = 63 ... View more

Here is an example on how to add your coordinate system using python: arcpy.CreateFeatureclass_management(r"C:\temp\python\test.gdb", "parcels", "POLYGON", "", "", "",                                     "Coordinate Systems\Projected Coordinate Systems\UTM\NAD 1983\NAD 1983 UTM Zone 16N.prj") A trick I do is find the coordinate system in ArcCatalog under 'Coordinate Systems', select it and then copy path from the 'Location' toolbar. ...

Hi John, You do not have to place anything for the template.  This parameter is optional and can be skipped using "".  Ex: arcpy.CreateFeatureclass_management("C:/output", "habitatareas.shp", "POLYGON", "", "DISABLED", "DISABLED", "C:/workspace/watershed.prj.") http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#//00170000002p000000 ...

Hi Karthik, Are you uploading one IMG or are you mosaicking multiple IMGs into a single raster dataset within the SDE geodatabase? ... View more

Hi Stephen, Here is an example: import arcpy # Script arguments Point_Selection = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(0) Polygon_Selection = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(1) # Process: Select Layer By Location arcpy.SelectLayerByLocation_management(Polygon_Selection, "INTERSECT", Point_Selection, "", "NEW_SELECTION") arcpy.RefreshActiveView() Then you can import the script into a toolbox and set the parameters: [ATTACH=CONFIG]12802[/ATTACH] For the Feature Set, be sure to set the 'schema' to an existing shapefile/feature class. ...

Hi Johan, You have a couple options. 1.  You can convert your raster to a Mosaic Dataset.  With Mosaic Datasets you have the ability to apply functions.  One of the functions being 'Clip'.  The clip function allows you to clip based on a feature class with two option types:  Inside or Outside.  Inside = pixels intersected by the feature class are removed Outside = only pixels intersected by the feature class are retained OR 2.  Create a new integer field in your raster dataset and set it to a value of one.  Convert the raster to a polygon based on the new field so that you get an output of one polygon.  Next, use the 'Erase' tool to remove the area you want excluded from your raster dataset.  Finally, use the new output from the Erase tool as the Mask area in the Extract by Mask tool. ...

Is it possible to connect ArcGIS9x or 10 to an Oracle Spatial 10g Database without an ArcSDE installed? -No, you cannot connect to the Oracle Database using a Spatial Database Connection.  You will want to create a Query Layer to view your SDO geometry data.  This query layer will be a read-only layer. At 10.1 you will be able to connect to an Oracle Database without SDE being installed and view/create Oracle Spatial data through a spatial database connection.  Take a look at the following forum for more information. ...
