I created a python script to reconcile all edits on the users versions, then  post the reconciled version to a QAQC and then to the sde or dbo default version. After this process the script will proceed to compress analyze and rebuild indexes for the tables in the sde database. This script will be scheduled on windows scheduler to run silently at 2:00am on Thursday and  Saturday morning when users are offline. If there should be any error encountered, the script is to print the errors and also generate a log file containing the errors and store the logfile with date and time in the specified drive location. Since the script was scheduled to run behind scene on windows scheduler, it was difficult for me to see errors when it happens. This was a big issue because users edits weren't reflected on our default database after sometime due to the error encountered by the script, his actually necessitated the need for a functional logfile that will enable me identify the errors. The initial problem I had was that  the script executed very well but could only print the errors on the screen but it generates an empty logfile. This was corrected by putting in 3 lines at the end of the script to get it to write the printed errors intothe logfile, save it with time and date. The Initial Script - executes but generates an empty log file # This script will reconcile and post all edits made in child versions of Natural Resources Geodatabase to QA\QC and then to SDE default database,it will go further to compress the database, analyze and rebuild the indexes on the database tables. # Script developed by Irene F.

Hi All I have some datasets: Parks, Park facilities and ParkTrails. These have many-to-many relationship; i.e a park can have multiple facilities and there may be multiple park trails on a single park I would like to publish this data to ArcGIS Server, and issue queries on it, so that I can get a single result for a single Park. Currently, when mapping  say a pack I get all other parks and facilities as well as Park line and this is somehow confusing and a lot of information to digest at a time when the result is drawn by a text search. Please does anyone have an idea how I can create a spatial view that will generate a unique Object ID field for repeated geometries to enable me publish a park layer with say uniquely identified facilities and park lines. I am using MSSQL Database server 2012 and ArcGIS 10.4. I would also not want to tamper with my data storage type. I have tried creating the view from my MSSQL interface but  on bringing it across to ArcCatalog or ArcMap, I keep getting the OID error (ObjectID)and some other errors as shown in the screenshot attached here. Also at some point, the feature displays on ArcMap to show just  one feature either polygon data or the Line data but when I try to view the attribute table it gives me another error screenshot 2   ...
