So I gave up on this.  I began by setting up a virtual directory in my IIS and tying that to a sever directory.  I pushed all my documents into the server directory and set up a link field in arcade.  If I need to link to more than one doc for any given feature, I'll use arcade for that too, most likely in a when statement.  Sure is alot easier than trying push all these attachments as part of an sd file to the datastore. ...

Hi Chris - This is not exactly correct but hopefully close enough.  To be specific, the account running ArcGIS Server is a windows active directory account that is part of the local Administrators group across all of Enterprise - Portal, Server, Web Server, Datastores, Shared config and sever directories...  The ArcGIS Server that is supplied at install and during upgrade account is, does and continues to have administrative level permissions.  It can read and write everywhere in our Windows 2016 VM environment. ...

That's great Igor but we can't do that in a fully distributed deployment.  I can't use a local server account, it has to be a domain account.  I tried adding the domained arcgisserver account directly to the local Administrators group just to try but to no avail . . . plus I've never ever had to do this before and we've been in a fully distributed environment since 9.x, and fully federated with enterprise since 10.6 ...

Our domain ArcGIS server service account is already part of an admin group (e.g. Domain\gis_admins) that has full admin privileges across the deployment because the admin group is part of the local Administrators group on each machine.  So for us, we're already doing that basically. ... View more

Yeah Igor I don't know.  I know that a custom print service using Pro 2.6 going to Enterprise 10.8 did not have an issue. Clearly this is a server 10.8.1 issue in some way. I mean they had to release simultaneous (or nearly so) patches for the Network tools and the Parcel fabric tools for server at 10.8.1 so I'm not entirely surprised other server gp services might have an issue ...

Hi Tanu Hoque‌, yes I just shared with Christof from esri support, sorry i dont see his tag here, maybe Hadeel Khamiseh‌ can hook you up. ... View more

Hi Tanu Hoque‌, yes thanks I started a support case a couple days ago, and am working with Hadeel Khamiseh‌ on ESRI case # 02616441.  Thanks- David ... View more

Hi Tanu Hoque‌, has this issue been logged with support or has a bug been created?   ... View more

Sad to say this is still an issue at Enterprise 10.8.1 and ArcGIS Online.  The: sdFile = os.path.join(sdPath, "FemaElevationCert.sd") #item[:-4] sdItem.update(data=sdFile)  fs = sdItem.publish(overwrite=True)    method continues to fail as does the overwrite method from the feature layer collection manager" portalFLC.manager.overwrite(sdFile) whatever it is, for sd files with attachments that are larger than 2Gb can be added and published as new items through the api, but cannot be overwritten.  The json error remains: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0) after a certain amount of time. (@ 1 minute on portal, ~ 21 minutes on agol). Jonah Lay‌ thought you might want to know ... View more

Sure Tanu - thanks.  If it helps, the print service from both my hosting site and federated site do produce the MAP_ONLY image in both the Portal Map Viewer and in the Web Application Builder print widget.  One work around I thought of would be to use the AGOL service, e.g. "https://utility.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/Utilities/PrintingTools/GPServer/Export%20Web%20Map%20Task", ...

I have just upgraded to 10.8.1 and am now receiving a print service error, in both portal and in web app builder print widgets.   Never had an issue with the print service before..... and now I cannot print from either the Portal 10.8.1 web map nor from web app builder apps. ... View more

interesting development Jonah Lay In this case, after removing bad naming conventions and invalid attachment types, the sd file will still not complete an overwrite with either the pro sharing module or the api.  The pro module fails with the same 5 9's code while the api featureLayerCollection.manager.overwrite(data_file=sdFile) method fails with  Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0) after a certain amount of time. (@ 6 minutes on portal, ~ 21 minutes to agol)  this suggests a bad name or type of attachment, but if that were the case I would think the layer would fail it's .add and .publish when adding as a new layer.  On the other hand, there are issues with size and hosted feature layers: BUG-000127663 Exporting a hosted feature layer containing large attachments fails if the size of the exported file geodatabase exceeds 2 GB. To be clear, other service definition files / layers with attachments (with standard attachment names and types) that are less than 2Gb in size don't have any add, publish, overwrite or pro sharing module issues. ...

So it turns out that this is a result of invalid characters in the attachment file name and some invalid attachment types  The Postgres datastore at 10.8 does not like certain characters in the name - Brackets, braces, dashes, periods can all cause issues.  In this case some invalid email attachment types ".msg" and some period "." characters in the file names caused an 'Object Store Exception' error. Datastore thought that was the file name.  Amazingly ArcGIS Online hosted this layer with no issue, i guess it's datastore can handle these things.   ... View more

This has since become a non-issue with the vector tile style editor available at 10.8 ... View more
