Melissa, Yes, the Change Privileges tools works for me and I can see settings in SQL Server Management Studio. Looks like there are multiple situations when this arises. I'll contact tech support.

Any progress? I'm thinking of requesting tech support, too. ... View more

Found it. Thanks! Lots of red. The majority are for the Mapbox service - a 404 error, so it may be on their end. I'll substitute another basemap for now. I toggled sharing for the images that are on AGOL and that fixed them.

Sorry, I'm not familiar with the term "console log." The data, services and apps are all hosted on AGOL. Some of the photos are on an National Park Service system, but it's working fine.

Update. I tried unversioning the dataset and wound up with a mess.  To turn off versioning, I was forced to turn off archiving and now the GDB has a bunch of history tables that preserve the changes up until that time. But it means that the archives are split, with changes before and after in different tables. I turned versioning back on and reestablished archiving.  I could open the privileges dialog again. Now, it's happened again on the same two dataset, but the only schema change didn't involve either of the two afflicted datasets. I can open the dialog for the dataset that was changed. This never happened when the GDB was a Workgroup SDE on SQL Server Express. I run compress, analyze and reindex on a regular basis. ... View more

You can use "like" instead of "is", then the values box won't show the list of unique values. Instead, put a question mark or other hint in the values box.  Users can enter partial strings, not case sensitive to find what they want. ... View more

This another case of what I call "Esri fine print":  If you dig around in the documentation long enough, get lost following link after link, you'll eventually find out that what one help page says is possible, isn't in your case.  Last year, I changed from Web to GIS Tier authentication when I found out that Portal wouldn't work with our services.  There was no warning about IWS vs. token. So now I have to decide if it's worth changing security again.  I'll have to spend time researching it to see what other consequences might arise. Also, it means that my users will have to remember yet another name and password for some situations. ... View more

After a bit more experience with publishing services, I'm seeing what appears to be inconsistencies from day to day, even using the same database and mxd. Sometimes I get a quick, clean publish, but other times I have to resort to a workaround. And it doesn't seem to be related to the number of features or the size of the service. At this point, I suspect that my problems, anyway, are due to variations in our network speeds or changes that IT is continually making to firewalls, etc. Overall high internet traffic, or something happening on the Esri/Amazon side may be a factor sometimes, too.  So frustrating when results are inconsistent. ...

This has just happened to our SQL Server geodatabase. I can't manage privileges for 2 datasets, but the other three and the standalone tables are OK.  I recently added a new feature class to one of those datasets and it's versioned. The only change in the other dataset was adding default values to one feature class.  The next time I can get exclusive control and make sure that all edits are posted, I'll turn the versioning off and on again. ...

That explains it! Afraid that I hadn't noticed the difference in the urls. Now that you've pointed it out, I can get them to work. This is great because I'll be storing the photos on a NPS site that can be used by others and is more stable than Facebook. Thanks Again!

Gregory, The app <http://nps.maps.arcgis.com/apps/MapTour/index.html?appid=154a98e7358f4835a1fe4ab1201c2e39>is public, so you should be able to see it. Since the FB links aren't usable, I tried another option, NP Focus, to replace the photos that weren't displaying. I have three other apps that use images and pdfs from NP Focus, and those are fine. Two examples: Mammoth Cave <http://nps.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=d909327f71034f11be4dbe9453edf5cc> Guilford Courthouse <http://nps.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=935930fe2cce4ea882a081dde229cd6a> As for the broken app, I can add NP Focus URLs and the images are displayed. However, when I try the app from outside our network, the NP Focus photos and thumbnails do not display. The images are public and two people have confirmed that the links to the photos work from outside our network. Example <http://focus.nps.gov/assetdetail/701f6648-662a-40ad-8634-794261a7d8ab>. I'm baffled as to why photos from two different public sources aren't working in the app. This suggests to me that there is something on Esri's side that has changed. My only option at this point is to try uploading the images to AGOL. I hope there's a batch upload option.

Here's the app that causing me trouble: http://nps.maps.arcgis.com/apps/MapTour/index.html?appid=154a98e7358f4835a1fe4ab1201c2e39 I may just have to reload some of the photos once the Facebook problem is resolved, but if you can spot the exact issue, that would be useful. I noticed several other story maps (not mine) that are missing random thumbnails yesterday. I was looking for good examples to use for introducing AGOL to prospective users. Naturally, I don't remember which ones this morning, but here's one example: http://cosa.maps.arcgis.com/apps/MapTour/index.html?appid=9d64b80afec7413e9edda25e5d3602e1&webmap=0245de98d95444bab04f202bf78b23c3 I may have to go ahead and upload photos to AGOL, but I'll have to check with the NPS administrators to see if there are any objections to my using cloud space for that. I'd prefer to use our FB page, so they're shared that way, too.

Gregory, I've also noticed that some of the thumbnail aren't displaying. I assumed that those are generated from the Facebook photos. I checked FB and the photos are still there. Any ETA for getting this repaired? I was planning on sending the link to a big group of potential partners, but at this point, I'll have to hide it from the public instead because it's a mess.
