No, this is brand new at .2; I have never seen this error before in any release. No, I have not skipped any releases. We updated to 10.2.2 from 10.2.1 and in general, things have worked very well with this exception thus far.

‎05-13-2014

Of course. I've tried dynamic basemaps at each release and whether the data is local or sde, the performance suffers, at least for us. I would consider a workaround something like what I used to do at 10.0 or less: that is, caching on a dev o rstage environment and then moving the tiles to produciton via OS commands. But since 10.1, this is somewhat problematic with the advent of the Status gdb. Over time, this tends to corrupt the service. Plus, we shouldn't have to go through these incredible scripting gymnastics just to get tools that are supposed to work; to work. Each release since 10.0 has introduced some new issue that is addressed in a subsequent release, which in turn introduces some new error . . . . David

Thanks Michael. The services have been through several updates, but this is the first time we received this error. We are able to create entirely new caches (which we have), but then cannot overwrite or delete those cache bundles. The tool deletes the bundle exchange file (bundlex) leaving in place the locked bundle, and then the tool cannot overwrite or delete the bundle as it has lost itsreference

We are experiencing brand new caching issues at 10.2.2. I am unable to either DELETE_TILES or RECREATE_ALL_TILES from an existing cache. The error we keep receiving is: Line 30Output failure, error string = Error moving bundle Failed to cache extent: -9223211.962860 3087885.815688 -9079003.170544 3271103.291998 at scale 577790.55428899999. The error occures when running RECREATE_ALL_TILES or DELETE_TILES operations of the Manage Map Cache Tiles (run as a tool or script) when run from a dedicated server gp cluster machine. Our clustered setup consists of a network file server storing our config, security and data-stores, as well as all server and system directories. Two servers serve as a mapCluster for map and image services, a single server in a gpCluster for caching and user-defined gp services, and a virtualized web server for the WebAdaptor. This has occurred as of lastweek whether reading from the GIS SDE database OR from a data-store file gdb. All permissions for directory shares and folder and file security have been accounted for. When the error occurs, the entire cache becomes corrupt, making any other caching operations in-operable (delete cache, delete tiles, etc). During the recreate, the bundlx file is being removed but the bundle file is not, thus not allowing the tool to overwrite thebundle from the admin-defined D:/arcgistemp folder(s) on the GP server. Thus far, the only solution has been to kill the service, stop the site, and then remove the entire cache directory, restart the site, recreate both the service and the cache. Has anyone encountered this? Thanks- David

Yes I do have suggestion. First, you can't run server in mixed security mode. You must use either AD or use the built-in security store. I would use the built-in store after setting up your roles and users as most IT departments are quite restrictive. Remember, serverwill inheriet whatever AD policies are in place. Place the user in the role, and secure the service. The user will then recieve a log-in prompt through whatever api you are using to display the service. Thanks David

Outstanding work Jeff, way to go. Very impressive. David

Hi Robert- Essentially you correct thank you.. I solved by setting a renderer to match the def query of the feature layer, such that if say hospital points are part of a larger layer: var lyrHospital = new FeatureLayer("https://ags2.scgov.net/arcgis/rest/services/WebEOC/WebEocOperational/MapServer/10", { mode : FeatureLayer.MODE_ONDEMAND, opacity : 1.0, infoTemplate : hspTemplate, outFields : outFieldsHospital }); lyrHospital.setDefinitionExpression("FEATURETYPE = 'HSP'"); then set the renderer to match: var hspSym = new PictureMarkerSymbol('http://static.arcgis.com/images/Symbols/NPS/npsPictograph_0074b.png', 18, 18); //24, 24 var hspRenderer = new SimpleRenderer(hspSym); //defaultSymbol, "ProgramArea"); lyrHospital.setRenderer(hspRenderer); Thanks David

Hello- I am pulling a featureLayer out of a larger map service and then setting a Definition Expression to display only the feature I want. Unfortunately, the legend dijit does not honor the definition expression set on the map layer and instead displays all of the symbology from this particular index layer. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, David

‎03-26-2014

We are working on that behavior now and will let the community know if we find anything. Essentially the TOC code needs to change the visiblity of one layer based upon the visibility of another.

‎03-26-2014

Jeff's right. Souce code is not available but you can easily plug in your own or esri's routing service into the dijit. I would begin by looking at the routing paramaters, tasks and results task examples-

Hi Robert- Just thought I'd let you know that I have been making the move over for to JS since about September of 2013. We've been able to work out many idosyncracies with AMD, classes, aliases, dgrid, where to place and call modules, CSS syntax, working with feature layers and cached services at the same time and more. Now, I am not trying to recreate the viewer in the JSAPI. But if ESRI comes out with a 'viewer' we will certainly take a look. I'm at 3.6 with the FlexViewer and don't really anticipate taking it to a greater release (unless you come up with some sort of must-have at 3.7 or 3.8:). As far as any of the current JS templates that esri has out (property and community lookupds), I have found it much eaiser to construct my own templates as most of the esri code is still in legacy format, and of course like everything else I'd rather build my own code than deconstruct theirs where possible. In the meantime, I spending much more time on the Javascript API forums. I have two colleuges, Jeff Pace and Ken Buja, that have provided invaluable tips and answers. Also, for those that must have a TOC dijit, please see: http://gmaps-utility-gis.googlecode.com/svn/tags/agsjs/latest/examples/toc.html See you in the forums--

Hello Diego: I'm sure you are probably already aware, but there is a patch that address tiles and tile count anamalies: "ArcGIS 10.2.1 for (Desktop, Engine, Server) Hosted map service export tiles dialog Patch". I'm not certain that it will address your specific issue, but it well could. I too am at 10.2.1 and have experienced a similar issue, but have found that as long as I run my cache re-builds through "arcpy.ManageMapServerCacheTiles_server" tool, update mode "RECREATE_ALL_TILES, specify my scales in an array, I never have any issues. I rebuild both a local streets cache and a local basemap cache in both a state plane harn and web mercator projections each weekend. I do find at times that with my web mercator scales, my cache directory will at times leave behind empty scale level folders that I am not using, but I just delete these. See the help for for good examples to get you started if you haven't already. Hope this helps- David

Hello Esri et al: We have discovered that the 10.2.1 Create Mobile Cache tool failures are related to the map extent for certain map projections such as HARN. It would appear that there is something in the way the extent is read when using a HARN projection. For example, when publishing an mxd in a HARN projection enabled and bringing that MobileService as an operational layer into the MPC the service will not display. When zooming to the initial extent, all appears normal but still no display of data. And the Cache tool continues to extract only schema as well. However, when then setting the project extent in the MPC, the MPC will zoom down to a 5" square envelope. It's as if the op layer were behaving as page space. This got me thinking about the projection engine, which apparently has changed slightly at 10.2.1. So, as a workaround, I brought my HARN projected layers back into a new mxd, changed the data frame projection to standard state plane and reset the full extent. I then switched the data frame back to HARN, reset the full extent, published the service and wa-la. The op layer displays in the MPC, and the cache tool is able to dowload all data from the modified mxd. So, I think the real issue lies in the way MPC and the Cache tools handle HARN (and perhaps other projections as well) as all of this was never a problem at 10.2 Thanks-- hope this helps others. David

Hi Chris- Thanks for the reply. I apologize for the frustration. I've since discovered that we may have some data issues as the 'Create Mobile Cache' tool is downloading the features at cache creation for some of my feature classes but not all. The tool works with one specific cache that I have created for the MPC, and does dowload the data to that cache from my 10.2.1 SDE. For the two caches where the tool is failing, those are being consumed in a MobileSDK application, but that shouldn't make a difference. At this time we have to check this data, (as it's not an mxd full-extent setting issue). Thanks for the reply and I will post my findings later this week or so. If I am unsuccessful there, I'll open up a support incident- David
