Does anyone have any input regarding this?  I'm still seeing the same issue ... View more

I figured as much but why did they choose what they did?  Off topic I know but I'm curious. ... View more

I should probably know this already but it is escaping me and I can't find the answer in a search so.... why are your/esri LODs such odd (not rounded) numbers? We naturally want our maps printed to a useful scale so I would want mine to be 240, 360, 480 etc. ... View more

Do you mind sharing what LODs work best for you? Having one for every scale we tend to need just seemed like a bad idea due to the time it takes to build the cache and the huge amount of storage needed.  The latter of which is what led me to this question to begin with....but will be remedied in the near future I hope. ...

Sounds like a good idea but unless I can bypass the zooming to LODs with your method I don't think it'll work for me at this time.  If it can be bypassed then I'm all ears!   Thanks! ... View more

nevermind.  Robert already answered that question above and I missed it. So having as dynamic was the reason for the original issue posted. Tiled is not the answer for me however so I'll just work around it. Thanks all! ... View more

It looks like all of the basemaps must be of type tiled for it to work. Regardless, being stuck with particular LODs and not able to zoom in farther is unacceptable for us (we need the prints in scale and they vary a lot) so I guess  this means I can't use caches at all. Is it just Flex that forces zooming to the LODs only or is it this way in Javascript as well? ... View more

The services are cached and status is 100% tile creation. from the map service properties in ArcMap: from server manager: I don't know what I'm missing ... View more

so I changed a layer to "tiled" and it doesn't display at all now, no errors.  Not sure what I'm missing here. ... View more

hmm...now that you ask, I have them set as type="dynamic"....I believe I had to do that in order to avoid the issue of only being able to zoom to the available LODs.  It's been quite awhile since I set that up so I'm not positive that is why I did that. So would dynamic be the reason for the lock? ... View more

My caches are basemaps and I can zoom in/out at will - it is not tied to the LODs (otherwise I wouldn't be using caches at all because we work at small scales). http://map.exetertownship.com ... View more

I did some further testing, at least with 1 of my imagery caches.  I removed the source imagery and restarted the service and it works fine in ArcMap but not in my flex app.  There is no imagery shown at all in the latter but I get no error either.  ( I can't zoom to a particular scale) ...

No I'm not touching the cache.  I mean the files that were used to create the cache. I'm on 10.3.1 The caches are 100% and have been in place for months. I'm using the service in a flex application.  I assume that between scales you are just seeing the imagery at a lesser resolution otherwise what's the point of the cache?  Are you saying that between scales there is some further action being taken?  I hadn't looked for the imagery at any scale other than the default map extent but that may not equal the highest cache level.  Meaning, I shut down the services (there was a lock), moved the source imagery, refreshed my app after restarting services, and the imagery was gone.  So the simpler question is, why is there a lock? Thanks! ... View more

Oh and I did see something along the lines of what you said where I set it to manual then it goes right back to automatic.  It just seems to be a visual bug though since if you republish the service it shows as manual there as expected. But if you believe that is what the issue is here then I'm not sure what you are suggesting the solution is. ... View more
