I typically refrain from running much as local system because that's a highly privileged account. Do you see any errors in your windows event logs? ... View more

Is this issue specific to the local service account (.\ArcGIS), or does it happen with other accounts?  Are there other services that run on this machine that use the .\ArcGIS account? I'd check to see if some GPO is getting enforced. To do that, while ArcGIS for Server is running, log onto this machine, open a CMD prompt as an admin, and run gpupdate /force. If that causes these logon failures, then it seems likely that this issue is compounded by some GPO. This is less an ArcGIS Server issue and more a Windows issue. The windows event logs should help to provide additional context. ... View more

Hmmm...personally, I wouldn't do this in PROD. If you have to, I'd download and host this API in house in your shop. Most current web servers set CORS headers by default. I'd set those headers in the web.config on the root of your web server. " A public demo of CORS Anywhere is available at https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com. This server is only provided so that you can easily and quickly try out CORS Anywhere. To ensure that the service stays available to everyone, the number of requests per period is limited, except for requests from some explicitly whitelisted origins. If you expect lots of traffic, please host your own instance of CORS Anywhere, and make sure that the CORS Anywhere server only whitelists your site to prevent others from using your instance of CORS Anywhere as an open proxy." ...

Backups I'd handle via SQL server, but there are some solid python scripts out there to help with the geodatabase maintenance tasks you mention. Check this one out for instance. ... View more

Unsure I understand why you would run ArcGIS Server on a laptop and expose it through a reverse proxy, but the issue seems to be that the proxy can't resolve to your laptop's hostname. This is what I get when I go to http://mapwizard.eu/arcgis/rest Reason: DNS lookup failure for: home.mapwizard.eu ... View more

Where is the clientaccesspolicy.xml file located? It should be at the root of the server that hosts your web adaptor or proxy, like http://sampleserver6.arcgisonline.com/clientaccesspolicy.xml. If open your application while a debugger or intercepting proxy like Fiddler is running, so you see that the clientccesspolicy file on the GIS Server is being accessed? ... View more

Hi Robert, I see this and a similar question that was asked previously. What preceded this issue? Did you attempt to import a CA signed certificate and then experienced failures? In the near term, if you're unable to access server manager over either HTTP or HTTPS protocols, we can get you back in by reverting to the default self signed certificate. 1. Stop ArcGIS Server 2. Drill down to \\Program Files\ArcGIS\Server\framework\runtime\tomcat\conf\server.xml. Open this file with a text editor and scroll down to the bottom. 3. Change the value of the keyAlias to keyAlias="SelfSignedCertificate" like <Connector SSLEnabled="true" ciphers="TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384, TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384, TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA, TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384, TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA256, TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA, TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384, TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA256, TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA, TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256, TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256, TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA, TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256, TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256, TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA, TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256, TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256, TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA" clientAuth="false" connectionTimeout="20000" connectionUploadTimeout="10000000" disableUploadTimeout="false" keyAlias="SelfSignedCertificate" keystoreFile="C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Server\framework\etc\certificates\arcgis.keystore" keystorePass="not.the.password" maxHttpHeaderSize="65535" maxPostSize="10485760" maxThreads="150" port="6443" protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol" scheme="https" secure="true" server=" " sslEnabledProtocols="TLSv1.2,TLSv1.1,TLSv1" sslProtocol="TLS" useServerCipherSuitesOrder="true"/>   4.

I don't see this in my environment, using Edge on Windows 10 build 1511. If you'd like to capture the session with a tool like Fiddler or similar, I can have a look at your network traffic. You can remove any sensitive URLs you might not want to share. ... View more

OK. Which flavor Linux? If you can get Shell access, then you can use a tool like winscp to copy the Linux install of ArcGIS Server up to the box, then unzip it. Then under a non-root account you can do a command line install through Putty by running ./setup. Assuming all of the pre-requisites are installed (and this is a supported flavor of Linux), it *should* work. Keep in mind that unless the provider will open up port 6443/6080 you'll want to install an application server like Tomcat and install the web adaptor ... View more

You can get a token from the GIS Server and append it to the end of your WMS URL, and not pass username/password. The issue is related to how ArcMap expects to access OGC - there's no provision in the OGC spec for Esri tokens, but there is for basic/digest auth (web tier authentication). ... View more
