You will need to enable https for the gis server: https://mapservices.phoenix.gov/arcgis/rest/services/OpenData/Village/MapServer ... View more

Your client is probably using https.  If the feature layer is not available over https, the browser (at least firefox) will block the mixed content. ... View more

I suspect what you're seeing is a known issue associated with floating point arithmetic in python: 14. Floating Point Arithmetic: Issues and Limitations — Python 2.7.11 documentation Just guessing here, but I suspect you're seeing this in server because python is being used to convert to result to a json object. ...

I don't see why not.  When I create gp services for web applications, I generally use a single JSON string input and output which makes setting up parameter inputs and processing outputs easy.  I don't see why messages would be any different.  Just make sure you know your data.  If you are stringifying large objects (including messages), you are going to see a lot of data going across the pipe.   ...

Robert, I did end up submitting a ticket with tech support.  They referred me to [BUG-000093062: The Basemap Gallery widget sends an export request instead of requesting for tiles when used with a cached image service.], which has been closed as known limitation. I couldn't seem to the track down the bug.  Probably because it has already been closed.  Since I have another workaround, I dropped the issue.  Best to pick your battles wisely! ... View more

Hi Anne, Yes, it is possible to publish a GP service using python.  We use python to publish all of our GP services, but it took quite a while to set it up and configure it for our infrastructure. If you decide to go down that road, let me know.  I might be able to provide you with some samples to get you started. Since you only have one GP service, it might not be worth the effort to automate publishing.  Your time might be better spent figuring out how to get the GP service to dynamically respond to work with the current content without having to republish each time.  What do you change each time?  Is it a layer naming issue? ...

If the feature service has an accompanying map service, you could run an identify task on the map service and get results back for every layer.  ... View more

That looks like a dynamic map service request to me as well.  Here is how they should behave: Dynamic map service: When you pan the map, you should see a single map service request for the current map extent Tile map service:  When you pan the map, you should see zero or more tiles fetched for the given extent.  If you already have the tiles cached locally, zero tiles will be returned.  If not, one or more tiles will get returned. ...

I'm working in firefox with firebug, but the network tab in Chrome will give you similar results. Here is what the calls look when the layer is loaded to the basemapGallery. Here is what they look like when they are loaded as a regular Tiled Layer: ... View more

No problem Thejus.  I went through the same head breaking struggle about a year ago. ... View more
