Peter, What version of Roads and Highways are you using?  The method described by Amit should work but you *must* turn off the Roads and Highways extension and start a new ArcMap session *before* editing any data in the Roads and Highways minimum schema.  After editing the minimum schema, turn the Roads and Highways extension back on, save, and restart your map document in a new ArcMap session.   ***ALTERNATIVELY *** Can you encode your custom calibrated measures in the source routes, or add fields to the source route feature class that represent the beginning and ending route calibration points (e.g. BMP and EMP)?  If so, then you should be able to  Load your source routes into the ALRS using Load Routes Run Update Calibration Points noting the following Input Polyline Features should point to your source route feature class Calibration Point Features should point to your R&H ALRS calibration point feature class Calculation Method:  Choose either M_ON_ROUTE_2D, if your source routes have calibrated measures encoded in the M measures of vertices ATTRIBUTE_FIELDS_2D, if your source routes have BMP/EMP fields that represent the custom calibration you desire Let us know how either methods work for you.  And if you still run into unexpected behavior, please send us a sample of your data so we can take a look at it.   ...

Check if you can connect to your LDAP using a LDAP client (e.g. Jxplorer or Apache Directory Studio) using the LDAP connection settings from your gpt.xml. ... View more

If the postgreSQL database is on the same machine as your web container running Geoportal Server, you might want to try: # IPv4 local connections: host    all             all             127.0.0.1/32            trust (That's how mine is set up) Still, it is probably worth double checking the following: [ ] You can connect to your database using pgAdmin [ ] The postgresql jdbc driver matches the version level of your postgreSQL database [ ] The url value for the JNDI context file is pointing to the right postgreSQL database ...

Paul, Did you check that the passwordEncryptionAlgorithm setting in gpt.xml corresponds to what your AD is using for passwords? Here's my thinking: The "username or password was not valid" error (with no LDAP errors in the log file) may actually indicate you are connecting to the LDAP, but that it is rejecting the username/password credentials as wrong.  How could that happen if you are providing the right credentials?  One reason that would cause that is if the Geoportal Server is hashing your passwords using the wrong algorithm (for example, SHA instead of MD5). Worth looking into it.  (also setting your log file reporting to FINEST while you are troubleshooting) -C ... View more

I would pursue taking a detailed look at the metadata in that feature class:  MCGIS.EvacuationZones ... View more

Thanks for the input.  The error message is telling you that the metadata IS MATCHING a template, namely the FGDC template.  The problem is your metadata is not passing the standard validation rules set up for FGDC metadata: Originator is a required element but is missing from the XPath, /metadata/idinfo/citation/citeinfo/origin You have two options.  Either correct the metadata by adding in the missing required elements (preferred), or you relax the FGDC validation rules on your Geoportal Server (not recommended if you intend sharing the metadata with other people outside your organization). ...

The correct approach would be to go back to the metadata author and have them tell you what metadata standard they were writing to. If you don't have access to the metadata author, then you have to inspect the metadata xml and make a reasoned guess depending on how complete or incomplete the metadata is.  The demo sandbox Geoportal Server at http://gptogc.esri.com could be used as a tool with this process.  Login.  Use the Administration tab.  Click ADD.  Choose "Upload metadata file from the local disk".  Browse to the local metadata XML file you want to inspect.  Click Validate and look at the resulting message(s). ...

Okay, fishing expedition.  Let's check on some basics. 1. Tomcat is running and you can log in to Tomcat manager.  http://<your_server>:8080/manager/html 2. From the Tomcat App Manager, you can see a /geoportal listed under Applications? 3. What happens when you click on the /geoportal link from the Tomcat manager app? Other questions: a. The geoportal web app is deployed in <tomcat_directory>/webapps.  Example:  C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 7.0\webapps\geoportal b. Your are using the right Postgres JDBC driver for your 9.1 database:  postgresql-9.1-903.jdbc4.jar c. The JDBC driver is deployed to <tomcat_directory>/lib d. You have set up the JDBC configuration file (geoportal.xml) and it is in the <tomcat_dir>/conf/Catalina/localhost folder.  OPTIONAL CONFIG:  Rename geoportal.xml file as context.xml, and move it to the geoportal/META-INF folder.  And a suggestion:  After making any change to your setup/config, stop Tomcat, delete all the log files, and restart Tomcat.  That way you are always looking at fresh logs and the latest errors and warnings (rather than old errors). ...

Then (most likely) the issue lies with how the ExtractTask is deployed and configured on ArcGIS Server.  Can you check if the ArcGIS Server account (arcgis or arcsoc) has all the write/read/execute privileges it needs on the folders being used by the Extract Task?  You might want to review the information in this link: "Making your data accessible to ArcGIS Server", http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/index.html#/Making_your_data_accessible_to_ArcGIS_Server/01540000039r000000/ ...

Are there any other errors in the log file? What port are you running Tomcat on?  (when you say localhost: port#, you are specifying a specific port number correct?  like localhost:8080/geoportal) ... View more

Not seen this behavior before.  Have you verified that the Extract Task works from running it within ArcMap?  Verified the Extract Task works from the ArcGIS Server REST API? ... View more
