Are you using 10.3.0? I can't reproduce this at 10.3.1. According to the documentation this would be classified as a bug. As a side note, if you're just trying to avoid the sde layers have you tried checking if the layer supports "DATASOURCE" (online services won't support this) and if the layer.datasource contains ".sde"? ...

ModelBuilder wouldn't allow you to delete the fields with the tools that are available out-of-the-box. You could use the Feature Classes Iterator with the recursive property set to true to locate all of the feature classes, but you would need to write a python tool or function to get the names of the fields that you'd be able to delete from the feature class (i.e. fields that aren't of type Geometry or OID). The logic needed could probably be execute with a single line in the Calculate Value tool or at least three lines in a script tool. The logic would be based on the following to list the needed fields to create the MultiValue object needed to pass to the Delete Field (Data Management) tool.

The first way that I could think of would be to create a new feature class with the CreateFeatureClass (Data Management) tool, add your needed field with the Add Field (Data Management) tool, and then use the Append (Data Management) tool to only map the Shape and ID fields. A quicker way to accomplish this would be to simply call the Feature Class to Feature Class (Conversion) tool and provide a fieldmappings object that only retains the few fields that you're needing to retain.

I believe that there should be plenty of samples in the book to help you with your task, but I've never honestly gone through the book. I usually just pull it up when I need to look to see if it has examples for interfaces I don't use that often. One of my colleagues, Alexander Nohe​, learned ArcObjects recently and may have used this book. He may be able to give some insight on the usefulness of it. ... View more

Could you provide more specifics on exactly what you're needing to implement and display some code showing what you have so far? Are you needing to implement something that you can't implement using the rules available to an enterprise geodatabase? Also, have you tried implementing a class extension or wiring into the edit events?

I just took a look at the toolbox and it is indeed showing signs of being corrupt. Could you upload a backup of this file that worked at 10.1? I can load it on a 10.1 machine on my end just in case there is some issue with 10.3.1 and this particular instance of your model. Also, do you remember exactly what was done when you upgraded your system? Did you only uninstall and install the newer version of ArcGIS Desktop and the models didn't show up? Did you apply any Microsoft updates or run any security scans? etc. I know that I've heard of users that have run into this issue, but I've never been able to replicate it personally. ... View more

In task scheduler are you explicitly setting the 32 bit python executable to run your script or are you using the default for the system? I would highly suggest that you explicitly set the python executable if your default isn't the 32bit instance. I'm assuming the default on your machine is the 64 bit instance. ... View more

I can see that you're running your code against the 64-bit install of python. I'd be curious to find out if your code works against the 32-bit install of python. I won't be able to test this against the 64-bit install until Monday, but everything works fine on my machine. Could you try running the attached script? I've included a map package that the code can run against to create the runtime content. I've pasted the code below as well. The code is designed to extract a map document from the map package and use it to create the runtime content. import arcpy import subprocess from os import path, walk def ExtractMpk(mpkPath):     outFolder = mpkPath.replace(".mpk", "_extracted")         if arcpy.Exists(outFolder):         arcpy.management.Delete(outFolder)             arcpy.management.ExtractPackage(mpkPath, outFolder)         mxdPaths = []     for root, dirs, files in walk(outFolder):         for name in files:             if name.endswith(".mxd"):                 return path.join(root, name)         return None def ValidateMxd(mxdPath, filler="Test"):     mxd = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument(mxdPath)     empty = (None, "", " ")         for attr in ("author", "credits", "description", "summary", "tags", "title"):         if getattr(mxd, attr).strip() in empty:             setattr(mxd, attr, filler)         naLayer = False            for df in arcpy.mapping.ListDataFrames(mxd):         if df.description.strip() in empty:             df.description = filler         for lyr in arcpy.mapping.ListLayers(mxd, data_frame=df):             if lyr.description.strip() in empty:                 lyr.description = filler             if lyr.isNetworkAnalystLayer:                 naLayer = True                     mxd.save()         return naLayer             def CreateRtContent(mxdPath, naLayer=False):     outFolder = mxdPath.replace(".mxd", "_rtc")         if arcpy.Exists(outFolder):         arcpy.management.Delete(outFolder)         params = {"extent":"MAXOF", "optimize":"NON_OPTIMIZE_SIZE", "options":"FEATURE_AND_TABULAR_DATA"}        if naLayer: params["options"].extend(["NETWORK_DATA"])         arcpy.management.CreateRuntimeContent(mxdPath, outFolder, **params)         # Open the folder where the runtime content is created.     subprocess.Popen("explorer {0}".format(outFolder)) if __name__ == "__main__":     srcPath = path.dirname(__file__)     mpkPath = path.join(srcPath, "MapPackage.mpk")         # Extract the included map package     mxdPath = ExtractMpk(mpkPath)         # Validate the map document     naLayer = ValidateMxd(mxdPath)         # Create Runtime Content     CreateRtContent(mxdPath, naLayer) ...

Are you having some problems using ArcMap 10.3.1. with Runtime .NET? I believe that you should be able to use any version of ArcMap 10.1.1 or higher to create runtime enabled map packages and 10.2.X or higher to create runtime content. ... View more

What are you trying to accomplish with the following logic? sourceFieldsList = ["TARGET_FID", poly,"SiteAddress",'SiteNum_1', 'SiteStreet_1','SiteNumSfx_1','Predir_1','SiteStreet_1', 'Postdir_1', 'SiteCity_1', 'SiteZIP_1', 'OwnerName_1','StreetType_1'] sourceFieldsList['SiteStreet_1'] + " " + sourceFieldsList['StreetType_1'] You won't be able to slice a list in python with a string.

I would think that the simplest way I could get your code to work is as follows. You'll see that I'm creating a Guid to give me a unique name for your new feature class. import arcpy from os import path from uuid import uuid4 for k, v in FCFDdict.items():     fcName = "{}_{}".format(*[path.basename(k), str(uuid4()).split("-")[0].upper()])     arcpy.conversion.FeatureClassToFeatureClass(k, v, fcName) ...

When I need to write scripts that are backwards compatible with 9.X I always start by writing the script using the arcgisscripting to create the dispatch object and quickly check the install version. I will limit my use of arcpy in the code so that I can reduce the amount of redundancy. If there is a functionality that I need to use that is only available in 10.X and the users machine shows a valid version I'll quickly import arcpy and execute that task. The biggest problem you'll see when writing a script that is compatible with 9.X is going to be the change in case for functions\methods. 9.X functions used PascalCase, whereas 10.X functions use camelCase. For example, if you're using a cursor at 9.X you'd need to call row.GetValue, whereas arcpy would require that you call row.getValue. ... View more

For the raster question, what happens if you call the function directly? import arcpy from arcpy.sa import * arcpy.env.workspace = "C:/sapyexamples/data" arcpy.CheckOutExtension("Spatial") ExtractValuesToPoints("rec_sites.shp", "elevation", "C:/sapyexamples/output/outValPnts", "INTERPOLATE", "VALUE_ONLY") ...
