One other thing you can try to just verify it's not something that may be left over from a previous install is to go in and remove the C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\com.esri.ags.AppBuilder3.0 folder. There is a step for uninstalling App Builder that talks about this. You can find it at http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/flex-viewer/concepts/index.html#/Installation_guide/01m30000002w000000/. If this still doesn't work, I would go with what the previous poster stated regarding making sure you can access your IIS web server via localhost. Thank you Mattias, Anthony and Heather for the answer. Your contribution is quite useful. I installed the IIS and adjusted �??user account control settings�?� and it did work.

Jamal, Is your IIS working correctly? If you put in http://localhost/ (on your server machine) or http://yourserver.name/ in your browser, what do you get? Regards Anthony Thank you Anthony for the answer. i got the messages in the screenshot below: [ATTACH=CONFIG]20121[/ATTACH], [ATTACH=CONFIG]20122[/ATTACH] best Jamal ... View more

Jamal, This is the SQL Server administration, not the ArcSDE administration as from within ArcGIS. You can probably change the password for an already existing SDE user in here somewhere, but this is not where you initially set it. See below. You set the SDE user password upon creation of the geodatabase structure in your SQL Server database. It is done in the Create Enterprise Geodatabase tool that you ran from ArcToolbox. If I look at the "q.pdf" file with screenshots you created, I see an entry line in that tool for "Geodatabase Administrator Password", this is probably the SDE user's password. The dialog seems to default to a 6 digit password, which corresponds with the "sde123" password the ESRI instructor gave you. I guess "sde123" is just the default password filled in by ESRI / the Create Enterprise Geodatabase tool, and you forgot to change it. It would have been better if there was no default password, and you were forced to enter one yourself, that way, you would have been aware of setting it, instead of running into the issue with a wrong / unknown password like you did. Thank you Marco the prompt reply. This is very useful. I do absolutely agree with you. I couldn�??t be able to know how the ArcGIS could take the password for the sde user by default! And why we are not able to change the user name (sde) in this case? [ATTACH=CONFIG]20049[/ATTACH] At the �??beginning of life�?�, how the sde login is created? is it ceated even before using the "create enterprise geodatabase" tool? At the the level of security?

Hi Jamal, Good to hear you got it up and running. However, since -p is the ArcSDE database admin password, as in: sdemon -o start {[-i {<service> | <port#>}] [-s <server_name>] | [-H <sde_directory>]} [-p <ArcSDE_admin_password>] I understand you entered "sde123" as the SDE user's password in SQL server or during ArcSDE install. That is of course fine for a quick personal test setup like you are probably creating, but anyone reading this may prefer entering a strong password for more serious applications. Thank you for the elaboration Marco. This is helpful. I�??m not sure at which step of the installation of the ArcSDE we are required to enter the users name/password. For example, during the installation of the sqlserver, there is a dialogue box at which we determine our user name and password as shown in the screenshot below: [ATTACH=CONFIG]20026[/ATTACH] How about the ArcSDE? Does such dialogue box exist in the ArcSDE while being installed (I can�??t�?? remember)? And then where might I have chosen the user name/password for the ArcSDE to be sde/sde123 respectively? ...

Hi Jamal, It appears you may have the 'sysadmin' role applied to your SDE user.  You can revoke this in SQL Server Management Studio by going to the Security folder > Logins> right-click on the SDE user > Properties > Server Roles.  Uncheck 'sysadmin'. Thank you Jake for the answer. It works. [ATTACH=CONFIG]20018[/ATTACH], [ATTACH=CONFIG]20019[/ATTACH] Best Jamal ... View more

Marco - While it is probably wise to populate the services file in port order, it certainly isn't required. The only thing that's necessary is a terminal newline (otherwise the last line in the file is discarded).  Empty lines are legal (and ignored, just like lines with leading octothorpes). - V Hi Vince, Thank you for the answer. Could you please elaborate more regarding the �??terminal newline�?�? What should it contain? [ATTACH=CONFIG]19976[/ATTACH] ... View more

Don't know if this is the issue (I don't have ArcSDE at hand right now), but I did notice that in the screenshot of the windows "services" file in notepad, that you copied the "esri_sde 5151/TCP" line at the end of the text file. If I remember it well, the line needs to be inserted in the rising order of port numbers, so in your case in between two other port number entries of the file. Thank you for the answer Marco the �??esri_sde               5151/tcp�?� is copied onto srvices file in page number 52 in the attached pdf file and also shown in the screenshot below: [ATTACH=CONFIG]19964[/ATTACH] if the place of �??esri_sde               5151/tcp�?� in the service file is an issue then where should it be positioned? ...

That's a standard Windows error that appears whenever the ArcSDE service has been misconfigured in any way.  Unfortunately, you didn't provide any of the information which would be necessary to help you: RDBMS product, version, and service pack/patchset ArcSDE version, service pack, and any additional patches The output from 'sdeservice -o list' The contents of your SDEHOME/etc/dbinit.sde file Any error messages from the SDEHOME/etc/giomgr.log An architecture description (the OS type and relative location of the ArcGIS Server, ArcSDE, and database components) All in text form, not as graphics, please -- It's important to place error messages in the message text block, because that's how others would be able to find your solution. In fact, if you had searched on the key words of the message ("arcsde service started then stopped"), you would have found a number of useful postings. - V Thank you for the answer Vince. Please, find attached the steps (powered by screenshots) that show how I configured the application server. I�??m sorry not to provide these steps in text format as I wanted to let the screenshots to speak out themselves. �?� I�??m using Windows 7 64 ultimate, sqlserver 2088, ArcGIS 10.1 (advanced), ArcSDE 10.1 (Enterprise) �?� sqlserver 2088, ArcGIS 10.1, ArcSDE 10.1 are installed on the same machine named m-pc �?� The dbinit.sde file contains nothing �?� The ArcSDE is installed in C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\ArcSDE �?� The sql server database is physically saved in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA Hope that this is sufficient to lead me to my problem and thus I can get the service started.
