Hmmm, certainly not the most informative error message, eh Steve?! Is it possible that something on your web server was upgraded at the same time you upgraded from 10.2 to 10.4? Can you check to see if your network firewall/DMZ prevents GET/POST requests over a certain number of characters? Given that you could add the features to your SDE feature class in desktop no problem suggests that the issue is with the communication between your web and ArcGIS Server tier. If not it may be worth opening an issue with Esri support, although depending on how tenacious you and your colleagues are you may find the answer sooner than they do. Micah ... View more

What was your data source selection when you configured the query? It looks like you might have to use the URL to the service that has the related table. ... View more

Heya Steve, Here's a couple questions which could help isolate the issue: Is a pretty complex (lots of vertices) line feature that your user is trying to add? Have you tried adding a line feature via the REST interface with just two vertices? What is the max time that a client can use the service setting? What happens when you try adding a line to your feature service in ArcGIS desktop and the ArcGIS Online map viewer? Do you have web-tier components (ArcGIS Web Adaptor or a third-party network load balancer running on a web server) which might have additional timeout settings? Is your ArcGIS Server site using Single Cluster Mode (About single cluster mode—Documentation (10.4))? This was made default at 10.4 and is supposed to reduce network traffic. Micah ... View more

Hi Liana, It looks like Query widget—Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS | ArcGIS has you covered. Have you tried looking into that? It mentions that you can query and filter based on related table attributes. Micah ... View more

Yeah, in that case you are probably looking at needing to develop something custom using ArcGIS Runtime SDK for Android or iOS. Just another reason mobile app developers with solid GIS backgrounds are in such high demand these days, I suppose! ... View more

Hi Alicia, As I understand it, the Allow Null Values property of a field in a geodatabase feature class or table is part of the underlying schema and therefore cannot be changes on the fly. What kind of editing will your users be doing where you want to implement this behavior? I have heard that Survey123 for ArcGIS can implement this kind of custom behavior in a configurable (non-code) way. If it's for a mobile application but Survey123 doesn't work, you could probably program this custom behavior using one of several ArcGIS Runtime SDKs. Finally, if your editing needs to happen in desktop, I think the best way to do that would still be to implement a custom Geodatabase Class Extension using ArcObjects. I can definitely see how it would be nice to have this ability to implement conditional schema properties in the geodatabase. I guess since there's so many layers that sit on top of the geodatabase (mxds, services, web maps, applications, etc) Esri is nudging customers in the direction of implementing this custom behavior at the application level. Good luck - let us know what direction you end up going. Micah ... View more

Hi Tom, Since you have attachments, heads up that you might need to export the data from the hosted feature service. Go to the item details for the service and choose the Export option (to file geodatabase). That should retrieve all of the data and attachments in your service. I've had issues (10.4) creating local copies of hosted services that use GUIDs (which are used in attachments). As for direct editing of stand-alone (not related) tabular records, I don't think it's possible in the default AGOL map viewer, but you can do this by going to the item details of your feature service containing the table, go to the data tab, and then you will have the ability to edit the tabular data. There may be a widget that you could configure implement in web application builder, but I'm not sure. Micah ... View more

Hi Aaron, Are any relevant messages visible in the ArcGIS Server Manager logs? That would be the first thing I'd check. Also, if you have a backup of your ConfigStore and srvcDirectories it might be good to restore them - my understanding is if those get unintentionally modified that can cause big problems with the Server. There's also some weird behavior that these posters saw having to do with identical field aliases and default display fields. It might be worth a look to see if the MXD from which your service was published has any of those properites: https://community.esri.com/thread/175979  Good luck! Micah ... View more

Hello Cheryl, Can you give a little more detail about what you want to accomplish? Are you just looking to delete files in a folder on your GeoEvent server machine that are a month old or older? If so, it's more of a data management question (and a simple Python script set to run as a daily scheduled task should do nicely). Micah ... View more

Jhon, What tool or process did you use to trigger that error? Did you try searching for the error to see if anyone else has encountered it in the past? It looks like there might be a few past geonet posts about it. Micah ... View more

It helps to have a more specific question, but if you just want an example: Area of Census blocks with median household income at or below 75% of federal poverty line within the state of Oregon (compared with every other state) ... View more

Hello Michael, From what you are describing I would recommend taking a look at a geodatabase relationship class: Benefits of relationship classes—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop  There's a lot of power to bringing conceptually (or in your case physically) related data into the geodatabase. With a properly-configured relationship class you may be able to just move your water valves and have the lines follow them automatically. I believe this is called a composite relationship class. It's worth considering. Micah ... View more

You bet. There's probably a few ways to do it. The key things are to preserve the existing data in the feature service but then overwrite the service with the new tables. I would first add the feature service to ArcMap, create a local copy, disconnect the local copy from the server, add your table(s), make any other needed schema changes, and finally overwrite the service. Here is some info on how to create the local copy in ArcMap: Making a local copy of a feature service for editing—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop  ... View more

The in_memory workspace may give you a performance boost over a local file geodatabase/shapefile cause there's no disk I/O. You also might want to try timing the different steps of your process to see where the bottleneck is. ... View more
