Aha, that is what I was looking for. Thanks a lot! ... View more

This problems seems to exist in 10.1 SP1 as well. I'm unable to work with Query Layers against sql server data when the query returns non-spatial data, if I'm using python scripts running outside ArcMap. My workaround is to add a dummy sql server geometry column in my sql server data so that my query layer becomes a feature layer. ... View more

I've wasted many hours trying to pass feature sets to geoprocessing services through the REST API - it often gives me that error message, and there are no logs showing what goes wrong. But apparently it's the process of converting the json to something that can be processed by the python script. One workaround I've found that always works is to create a model in model builder that just wraps my python script. In model builder you can specify a schema for your feature set, and this seems to make things ok. So instead of consuming the script tool from REST I consume the model tool, and the model handles the communication with the script tool. ... View more

By the way... Why is this forum named "ArcGIS Server (10.0 and prior) REST API" - is there a new forum for 10.1 questions? ... View more

Does anybody have any suggestions for how to work around this limitation? What would be the easiest way to calculate statistics in combination with a spatial query? Some options that I can see: 1. Query all the data and calculate the statistics client-side - very bandwidth intensive, poor performance 2. Do a spatial query for object ids, then do a statistics query with object ids in the where clause. I imagine one would run into issues with long where clauses quickly. 3. A custom SOE to do the calculation - this seems like it will yield the best performance but seems like a needlessly complex solution for a simple problem. EDIT: And I suppose a geoprocessing service is a fourth alternative. I'm a bit doubtful on the performance I'd get, though. Suggestions? ... View more

It sounds like ArcMap / ArcEngine is having problems downloading the generated image. Check that the output directory of your ArcGIS Server has a virtual path that is accessible to your client. Also maybe check to see if your client is using a proxy server for outgoing internet connections? ... View more

When using MIME access, the output image is stored as a .tmp file in the output directory, streamed to the client, and then deleted. When using url access, the output image is stored as an image file in the output directory, its url is returned to the client, and the image will reside in the output directory for 10 minutes. So the output directory never serves as a cache, it's just a means for returning dynamically generated images to the client. Using MIME access instead of URL access has no negative impact on performance. ... View more

Did you try to change your connection to ArcGIS Server to an internet connection? ... View more

You can just loop through your layers and see which interfaces they implement. ArcGIS Server Map Services should be contained in IMapServerSublayer interfaces, and WMS layers should be IWMSLayer interfaces. http://help.arcgis.com/en/sdk/10.0/arcobjects_net/componenthelp/index.html#/IMapServerSublayer_Interface/001200000m2p000000/ http://help.arcgis.com/en/sdk/10.0/arcobjects_net/componenthelp/index.html#/IWMSMapLayer_Interface/001200000rwt000000/ ...

Is your mxd using an internet connection or a local connection to the AGS map service? You could test whether or not this makes a difference. If exporting twice is what it takes to make things work, a workaround might be to cancel the first export operation after one second and then redoing the export. ... View more

Hi Bjørnar, it would be easier to comment if you did show us your code, even if it's copied from a sample. ... View more

I've seen this, in my case the problem was that the sde user had not been created because I hadn't specified a strong password for the sde user. I went back to the start of the post install and specified a strong password for the sde user (not just sde / sde), and this solved my problem. ... View more

I don't understand. Is there an .ecp file involved when authorizing server 10.0? I authorize using the internet, and no files are exchanged that I can see, at least. Where can I find the .ecp file? I would think that if the authorization server in redlands issues a file to me, this file will be bound to the computer from which I authorized, so it would be no use to me when reinstalling on a separate computer? ...
