I had a similar experience with deleting and refreshing services taking over 5 minutes each. This occured when i had the config-store and directories on a shared network folder. I had about 70+ services and the more services i published, the longer it took to delete/restart. i wanted to have a multi-gis server site for redundancy, but that was impossible with that issue. So i uninstalled arcgis server and reinstalled using a single site setup- everything on the local machine. Now it is extremely fast, but kinda defeated the purpose of wanting a multi-machine setup. Sorry i dont have better news.. ... View more

Gerald,    This is very strange indead... I have watched the query that is sent to the server through Fiddler and can see the issue is the outfields has "PARCEL_TYPE" tacked on to the end of the outfields list and I have gone though my code top to bottom and examined the FeatureLayers outfields and the Querys outfields and can not find where that is coming from. So My next step is attempt to reproduce this issue just using the Flex API and if I can, then submit a bug to the API Team. Robert,Anthony Just a follow up about this issue. Here's where it stands" {Gerald, Thanks for speaking with me.  To recap, this is a bug with the Flex 3.1 application: [#NIM083086  Flex Viewer Search widget fails when used on a map service layer containing a feature class with a subtype field and a join to another feature class or table. ] If you have a subtype and join within the same layer in a service, the search widget will not work. I�??ve attached this incident to the bug, and you can check on the status of the bug by going to the My Support page and clicking on the Bugs tab. My Support: http://support.esri.com/en/login The workarounds are to remove the join or remove the subtype. To remove the subtype, go into the properties of the feature class in Catalog  > Subtypes tab > and for Subtypes Field, choose None.  This will remove the subtype. I'll close this incident at this time but if you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.  You can reach me by replying to this email or calling the support line at 888-377-4575 and referencing incident #1123036.

So My next step is attempt to reproduce this issue just using the Flex API and if I can, then submit a bug to the API Team. I thought I would try and remove that field (PARCEL_TYPE) from the service and republish but I still get same error. I thought this Parcel search by owner name and link number would be a 5 minute deal tops.  Update: After further investigation, I see that this fieldtype is numeric inside its arcmap attribute table properties but when I look at its domain properties, it's setup with field type "Text".  Let me see if i can get someone to fix that first before anyone wastes more of their time.. Thanks again. i appreciate all help. ... View more

When I remove the joined table, all works as expected. This is what i tried without the join: works fine.. i thought about leaving it as <fields all="true"> and just commenting "visible='false' to fields i dont want. But there's probably about 75 fields. and even if i did that, All fields still appear in the infowindows  🙂 <layer>             <definitionexpression></definitionexpression>             <enableexport>true</enableexport>             <enableprintgrid>true</enableprintgrid>             <name>Parcels</name>             <url>http://maps3.murfreesborotn.gov/mboro/rest/services/GIS/PARCELSONLY/MapServer/0</url>             <expressions>                 <expression alias="GISLINK" textsearchlabel="Search by Parcel GISLINK Number:">                     <values>                         <value prompt="Example: 091N C 00900">GISLINK = '[value]'</value>                     </values>                 </expression>                  </expressions>             <graphicalsearchlabel>Use one of the graphical search tools to select a Parcel</graphicalsearchlabel>             <spatialsearchlayer>true</spatialsearchlayer>             <titlefield>GISLINK</titlefield>              <fields all="false">                 <field name="GISLINK" visible="true" gridfield="true" />                 <field name="STREETNO" alias="STREET NUMBER" visible="true" gridfield="true"/>                 <field name="STREETNAME" alias="STREET NAME" visible="true" gridfield="true" />              </fields>             <links/>             <zoomscale usegeometry="true" zoompercent="1.6" />             <autoopendatagrid>true</autoopendatagrid>             <relates />             <queryattachments>false</queryattachments>         </layer> ...

I had originally changed those too thinking that might be the issue. I've changed them so many times ive lost track. But I'm still getting same error though.. I've done about every combo i can think of.. Only thing that works is when its <fields all="true">  its probably one lousy comma or space somewhere.... ... View more

Anthony/Robert: I've made both suggested changes but I'm still having the same error. Thanks again for your time. ... View more

Robert, I am using your lastest ESearch 3.1.8 (compiled) inside arcgis viewer 3.1. I have published a 10.1 service from a Sql Server 2008 SDE that has a single join to a table also in SDE. All works well as long as <fields all="true">. But when I use <fields all="false">, i get error [RPC Fault faultstring= "Invalid or missing input parameters." faultcode="400" faultdetail=""]. I have wasted an entire day, testing different parameters, changing formats, republishing services,etc. basically all i know to do, with my limited knowledge. I need another set of eyes if possible. I'm sure its something simple that im missing. If you could look over my syntax, I'd really appreciate it and I'd gladly reimburse your time with some adult beverages in Palm Springs :).  Beautiful widgets and excellent documentation.

I appreciate the heads up. Thanks for that information !. Im glad to find out it was not me or my setup-- which is normally the cause.:). ... View more

just my 2 cents worth here. Dont know if this helps or not but my connection speed was absolutley unbearable. To the point that i uninstalled arcgis and reinstalled using local paths only. The speeds impoved to almost immediate connectivity. i tried every which way to use UNC server paths so i could use a multi site setup but my productivity went to zero. And service publishing was extremely long too before i went back to local....afterwards, publishing and connecting was a breeze.. ... View more

Thats one's got me then. Only thing I can think is maybe that particular application is not a flex app or either the flex version is too old to be directly upgraded by the app builder. ... View more

Count me in with this same issue--my 10.1 memory usage is about 2x as same 10.0 services, stopping services doesnt seem to relieve CPU, etc..i also am using VMware..on windows server 2008 R2. My IT said i must be hallucinating...glad to know its not just me.. 🙂 ... View more

Just to throw in my .02 worth, i have published our Plats in a single service layer. Works great as long as you don't have overlapping plats. If they do overlap, you're hosed as far as selecting them individually or viewing them separately. When the Plats are far enough apart, it works great though. ... View more

Using 2.4, I have popups on sublayers from a secure (token-based) Map service. The first few times I click on a feature I get all of the information. After that, the popup for a feature only displays the title and none of the fields. Any ideas? Thanks. Mine are not secure but im having the same problems. ... View more
