I'm using the Raster to Geodatabase tool in 2.9.1 and I believe it's pretty slow for the raster it's processing. It just sits at 0% saying "Converting <raster name>" forever. I left it overnight and no movement. When I open the Diagnostic Monitor, Geoprocessing and Background Geoprocessing are lit up green and I see things moving in the Logs tab so I know it's doing something...just not effectively.  The format of the raster I'm trying to move is a file geodatabase raster. It's uncompressed size is listed as 741 mb, so under a gig. I'm trying to move it from an FGDB to an enterprise geodatabase, so maybe internet speed is a factor? Pro is installed on my local computer, but I have to work over a VPN to access my enterprise data so that's certainly not helping anything. Is there a better way to move rasters from one geodatabase to another? Export Raster gives me the same results, slow. ... View more

Documentation states that you should have an option to cancel a cache job in the Job Status pane. I do not have one; I'm assuming because publishing of the map service was completed successfully so it considers the job "done" even though the cache generation is still in progress. Is the only way to kill the caching process by going into server and killing the running instances on CachingControllers and CachingTools geoprocessing services (under the System folder)? ...

So we're late to the party and only now getting off ArcMap and moving to Pro. As such, I am publishing our services from Pro and am readying our data for offline use in Collector. We have non-versioned, archive-enabled data that is being published, however when I publish from Pro, I get a new message about replica tracking needing to be enabled for bidirectional sync. Is this something new to Pro - I did not ever have to do this when publishing from ArcMap to sync bidirectionally. ... View more

I have a single website in IIS on our server machine. I understand that when registering the web adaptor, it automatically chooses that website since it's the only one available. When I register the web adaptor though, I wind up with a resulting rest service URL using the CNAME of the server instead of the public-facing web domain like I would expect. For instance, these are my results:   Instead of the https://CNAME/webadaptorname/rest/services URL, I was expecting https://www.mywebsite.com/webadaptorname/rest/services.    At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter as it registers successfully and I can still reach the rest service by replacing the CNAME in the URL with the public-facing website domain, but in a past set up, I have seen that resulting URL being a public-facing website and not the server name. How would you generate the URL that way? Or would it only generate that way if you had more than one website in IIS and you had to specifically choose which to register the web adaptor with? ...

In ArcMap there was a checkbox where you could build the tile cache at publishing of the service. Is there a way to do that in Pro? I have "cache automatically on the server" checked on. The "using tiles from new cache" option doesn't seem to work for building a new cache though. When I publish the service using this method, it succeeds at publishing the map service (although it's empty I think because it's looking for tiles), but it fails at the end saying it could not start the caching tool, thus no tiles are created. In the arcgiscache folder, I see a folder of the name of the service I published, but there are no tiles in the "_alllayers" subfolder. The tool results say this in the last few messages Validating service definition Creating the service. Succeeded. Publishing map service succeeded. Publishing tool succeeded. Successfully completed publishing call Post-processing on the server Initializing caching process on the server Error: Problem submitting tile caching job Google searches suggest restarting the CachingControllers and CachingTools services which I have done multiple times over. I have also viewed the logs in Debug mode and it seems like something is being submitted with empty parameters: Error executing tool. Manage Map Cache Tiles Job ID: <ID name> ERROR 000735: Input Map Service or Image Service URL: Value is required ERROR 000735: Scales: Value is required ERROR 000735: Number of caching services instances: Value is required ERROR 000800: The value is not a member of RECREATE_EMPTY_TILES | RECREATE_ALL_TILES | DELETE_TILES | COMPLETE_JOB | FIX_JOB | RESUME_JOB Source: System/CachingControllers.GPServer It's calling Manage Map Cache Tiles tool which requires a cache that already exists. Mine obviously does not so the tool fails; this is why I think "using tiles from new cache" doesn't actually create a new cache at time of publishing. When I hover over that option I also see it mentioning something about "pre-cached" tiles. I have read the help section for all the tile caching tools and don't really understand how to create a cache. The way that made the most sense to me was to use the Create Map Server Cache tool to create the folders on the server and then use Manage Map Server Cache Tiles to create the tiles. It fails every time telling me there's a feature that failed to project (I'm running check geometry on the feature class now to see if it's corrupted somehow, but it's going to take hours).  So, how do I create a cache? Am I on the right track? I've been trying to work through this for a day and half.   ... View more
