My guess is that would not solve knowing that installing the Web adaptor changes IIS settings, specifically the REQUIRE SSL setting which would interfere with URL Rewrite (redirect). I've provided an extraction out of my documentation step by step which should get Michael up and running.

This has nothing to do with the web adaptor but everything with IIS. Also, you can still use Web adaptors when using NLB appliances. Either you need an external appliance to redirect (e.g. F5, KEMP, Citrix etc) or you install and configure URL Rewrite. I can only suspect that the url rewrite rule applied to the IIS application (in this case, the Web adaptor) was incorrectly configured OR my other suspiciton is that you are unaware that installing the web adaptor,choosing 443 will change some IIS settings which the URL redirect may not work under. Lets make sure your redirect (using URL Rewrite) is setup first.. using IIS 8.5 type in the http link to the web adaptor.. get a 403. go to IIS you will have already installed the urlrewrite either on its own or using the web platform installer. e.g. Here you can see 3.21 (JSAPI) and the arcgis web adaptor You can create the new inbound rule to the site so that all child applications will get the redirect. Add rules Add a blank inbound rule Name it, Redirects to HTTPS pattern: (.*) Add a condition Condition input is {HTTPS} Pattern: ^OFF$ Press OK Go to ACTION pulldown panel Action Type: Redirect Redirect URL: https://{HTTP_HOST}/{R:1} Redirect Type: See Other (303) Click on APPLY Verify the changes were successful IIS will now look like so: Lets refresh our default page. yes... redirects. try a JSAPI under 3.21 yes.. redirects Try the web adaptor... In your case, i 'suspect' that it will not work... go to the SSL settings for the web adaptor: If Require SSL is checked... uncheck it. Make sure to apply and verify successful *** what i have found is that when installing the web adaptor, choosing port 443 auto checks a setting interfering with the URL Redirect. Now try your web adaptor link... (not even http just machine name...(or http) and you should now get redirected to HTTPS Of course, next step is to get a valid cert....

Hi Robert, thanks for validating. doh...I found my silly error.. must be a Friday.

doesn't work with WABde 2.5. Thoughts? Not sure what version you are referring to but 2.5 looks like this: define([ 'dojo/_base/lang', 'dojo/_base/array', 'dojo/_base/html', 'dojo/_base/sniff', 'dojo/_base/config', 'dojo/io-query', 'dojo/query', 'dojo/NodeList-traverse', 'dojo/Deferred', 'dojo/promise/all', 'dojo/on', 'dojo/json', 'dojo/cookie', 'dojo/number', 'dojo/date/locale', 'dojo/i18n!dojo/cldr/nls/number', 'dojox/encoding/base64', 'esri/lang', 'esri/arcgis/utils', 'esri/dijit/PopupTemplate', 'esri/SpatialReference', 'esri/geometry/Extent', 'esri/geometry/Multipoint', 'esri/geometry/Polyline', 'esri/geometry/Polygon', 'esri/geometry/webMercatorUtils', 'esri/tasks/GeometryService', 'esri/tasks/ProjectParameters', 'esri/tasks/FeatureSet', 'esri/symbols/PictureMarkerSymbol', 'esri/urlUtils', 'esri/request', 'esri/tasks/query', 'esri/tasks/QueryTask', 'esri/graphicsUtils', 'jimu/portalUrlUtils', './shared/utils' ], function(lang, array, html, has, config, ioQuery, query, nlt, Deferred, all, on, json, cookie, dojoNumber, dateLocale, nlsBundle, base64, esriLang, arcgisUtils, PopupTemplate, SpatialReference, Extent, Multipoint, Polyline, Polygon, webMercatorUtils, GeometryService, ProjectParameters, FeatureSet, PictureMarkerSymbol, esriUrlUtils, esriRequest, EsriQuery, QueryTask, graphicsUtils, portalUrlUtils, sharedUtils )

Since ArcGIS Maps for Office requires Microsoft Office products... the program is written against the .net framework. So yes, Portal is written using JavaScript modules. quite different.

Agree completely. There are many reasons I avoid Federated...some are... ESRI strongholds everyone to this named user money maker and is very frustrating. I am servicing a client with 12K employees. No way in hell does it make sense to Federate and require a million dollars in named users. The business requirements must have restrictions on layers for specific groups leveraging A.D. 300 users can only see this content here... 200 there. all 500 need to see some of the same etc.. the named user list is literally all staff. They do NOT want to sign in every time (e.g. making fake groups to lower the Named user count) but the user must know their group user/password. Its really frustrating for me when i get requests of symbol scaling but not able to use Pro because Portals are not federated and ArcMap is not capable of. Portals are not Federated w AGS simply due to the insane licensing scheme outlined for named users. ESRI seems to be slightly lost when it comes to application and use in large organizations with GIS and focus too much on social/public platforms. IMO SAP will mop up ESRI if they dont get a better understanding of internal business data and GIS cross departmentally.

Further: The 4-core model is only for a new AGS Node. Additional cores on TOP of the already purchased 4-core are purchased 1 each thereafter.

Thomas Buchmann wrote: A per-core-license is for the physical core and not for the logical. Attention: in a virtualized environment the license would be on vCPU's - whatever there is behind that number. HyperThreading does not double the performance of your machine. In best cases there is a little gain ( 15%-30% ). For more infos see: Will Hyper-Threading Improve Processing Performance If ArcGIS Server can really benefit from HyperThreading is a good question. In my opinion ArcGIS Server can be single-threaded (high isolation) or multi-threaded (low isolation) (see: Process threads). If I'm getting this right, I suppose: to take advantage of HyperThreading you should use low isolation (on a physical machine). High and Low isolation is no longer a configurable option in 10.5.x through the AGS Manager. Adjusting this has to be done using ArcCatalog or AGS Admin

Hi. Portal assistant cannot replicate web apps... however, in 10.5.1 I do believe you can export and import. WABde is meant for a web server not for Portal anyways, hence why WABde wouldnt work for portal assistant. I have moved web apps from portal to portal but that is manual file tinkering on the file level to make that happen. Had started doing .net scripts for it... for a promoting package of server services, data, web maps and web apps and IIS settings but it seems to be a never ending side project...

Greatly appreciate the shelled Widget.

I have received this as well. Unknown cause or unknown fix.

‎08-14-2017

Not quite correct. you CAN and I have made it work on 10.4 10.5 and 10.5.1, but it is not standard practice nor is it a supported workflow.

System Monitor used to be available openly until august of 2016. ESRI removed the available installation package due to too many users making a mess of their GIS Enterprise environments and having to field support calls. To summarize, too many people didn't know what they were doing and the support calls mounted. So now, to get this monitoring software, ESRI requires that you pay for them to implement. We run an older version when it was available and not able to upgrade.

Does that mean I just need to change this variable (to anything or to something like 2.3 or 3) in order to make the app avoid browser cache? I could never validate that this worked.

‎08-11-2017

using deployVersion does not work. This 'deployVersion' is for appending the version to the URL, but in no way does this help if one deploys a web application to a web server (e.g. IIS), the users use their browsers and then you upgrade the app and re-point the IIS web application to the new (upgraded version) app. The user would type in the same URL... but this mentioned deployVersion doesnt force a browser refresh. I also tested this to validate... result was, users still loaded prior web app and had to force using browser manually.
