Hi Abhijat, I had downloaded an example (Query Tool) which is showing error as 'ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.Extensibility.ApplicationUrls' does not contain a definition for 'ProxyUrl' and no extension method 'ProxyUrl' accepting a first argument of type 'ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.Extensibility.ApplicationUrls' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\Downloads\QueryTool\Source\QueryTool\QueryTool.AddIns\QueryTool.cs I had added the reference to ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.Extensibility already. But no change. Help me to get out of this? Are you using the latest version of the ArcGIS Extensibility SDK for Silverlight 3.1? It looks like you're using an older release. You can get it from here.

Hi there, Is it possible to recover ArcGIS Online tiles of a zone, then reproject and republish them in a Map Service? No, you cannot re-publish ArcGIS Online basemaps as your own web services. Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi Gerry, Even though I am new to Server, I have successfully installed ArcGIS for Server 10.1, register folders, and publish a simple service. Then I installed the ArcGIS Server Silverlight viewer. Now I can no longer publish services or view services ... The computer just hangs when I try to publish. I cannot get the Silverlight app to create a web map. ... This is very odd, as the ArcGIS Viewer for Silverlight is a completely separate product and does NOT in any way affect an existing ArcGIS for Server site when installed. I have never heard of this type of behavior before. If you are still having issues, please contact Esri Technical Support and open a support incident so Esri can investigate. Thanks, ... View more

Hi Julieta, This is what I got from Google Translator: Best regards ESRI friends. I have problems working with ArcGIS web application manager to create my map interface ArcServer 10.1 previously published, to do the authentication asks me for a user: domain \ username and password ... The problem is that I can login with any domain user who put regardless of the password and give me access but I have no privileges to create a new web application, this is the following error that I get: Insufficient privileges The current logged on user does not have administrative access to the Web server. Administrative access is required for creating and editing Web applications. Please contact your system administrator for further assistance. not where I have to define users and passwords and how I can give those privileges! THANK YOUR ATTENTION AND YOUR HELP! I am a little confused by your post. To confirm: are you using ArcGIS for Server 10.1? And you are using the Web ADF application builder? If so, please be advised that it has been deprecated and moving forward will no longer be supported by Esri. Based on the error message, I suspect that something is incorrect with your installation. This Esri Technical Knowledge Base article can help resolve your issue, KB #35105 - Error: Insufficient privileges - The current logged on user does not have administrative access to the Web server There is also this older support forum thread: Windows Server 2008 problems As an alternative, I strongly recommend that you use the ArcGIS Viewer for Flex or ArcGIS Viewer for Silverlight to help you create and deploy your web mapping applications instead of the Web ADF application builder. Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi Sutharsan, Right now, the ArcGIS Viewer for Silverlight does not support editing related tables. I suggest you vote for the idea here: Web editing of related table - ArcGIS Viewer for Silverlight - ArcGIS Ideas site Since you mentioned you are working with the ArcGIS API for Silverlight, it is possible to enable this functionality with some API development. Some resources: Query related records Silverlight API - Dev sample Another relate editing post - Esri support forum discussion Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi Wu, can I publish a service without Arcgis for Desktop. I know the module Arcpy can build and publish a service, but I didn't find this module in my disc of Arcgis for Server, can I get this module without Arcgis for Desktop? Yes, you can publish existing maps with ArcPy if you only have ArcGIS for Server and don't have ArcGIS for Desktop. However, you cannot author new maps. FYI there is a code sample here: CreateMapSDDraft (arcpy.mapping) Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi Barry, Another option you may want to look into is using the web application templates from ArcGIS Online.

Hi Mike,   Can I configure Workgroup ArcSDE under Enterprise license level? A1. As referenced in the other thread in Domenico's post above, an ArcGIS for Server enterprise license will NOT work to authorize a Workgroup ArcSDE for SQL Server Express instance.   I can create a geodatabase by using the Database Server node at ArcCatalog. In the built connection, there is a command for "New Geodatabase" when I right-clicked. In the popup window, it lets me type in the Geodatabase Name, specifying the location of the storage, the size of the storage, and so on. After clicking OK button, it takes some seconds before the geodatabase name shows in the connection.   But the geodatabase name disappears when I hit the refresh button, and the storage file is not created at the location I specified.   I don't know why. Is it a bug from ESRI, or different licence level between Workgroup ArcSDE and Enterprise ArcGIS Server? A2. This behavior occurs because the geodatabase was never actually created. Yes, this is a known bug (NIM083155) and is fixed in the forthcoming 10.2 release. Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi Shreyes, What are the differences between Portal for ArcGIS and ArcGIS Server? As Richard mentioned in his post, "Portal for ArcGIS" is basically "ArcGIS Online" - but hosted on premise on your infrastructure (i.e., on your own physical hardware or private cloud), instead of being part of Esri's cloud solution. Portal for ArcGIS is conceptually like a content management system for your GIS data and resources. While ArcGIS Server is the product that enables you to publish and share your GIS resources as GIS web services. They are complimentary products. Both are used to host services. ArcGIS Server supports many different types of web services, while Portal for ArcGIS only supports tiled and feature services. By "support", I mean it can only create these types of services. You can register other types of services with Portal. Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi NP, I am very new to ESRI tools and need help. We are reviewing options for a web based map application with the features below. a) Multiple users with different view of the map for each user based on the users location b) To show shape files specific to the user that logs in and selects. c) Capabilities for editing shape files (points/lines/polygon). d) Java API's to support development of additional features. I would start here: What is GIS? To learn more about the Esri GIS technology stack, I would review this: ArcGIS product page - Features Hope this helps, ... View more
