I am one of a few Administrators on a portal. The portal has been set up with Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA) so that Active Directory (AD) groups can be linked to Portal for ArcGIS. One of my fellow administrators created a new group and associated it with Users from an Enterprise Group using AD. I am a member of this particular Enterprise Group in AD, however when I log into portal using my administrator privileges and click 'Groups', I am not recognised as a member of this group. We double checked AD and I am definitely a member of the associated group. What might be causing this issue?

I am attempting to configure Portal for ArcGIS so users can access it via ArcGIS for Desktop. I follow the instructions as documented in Use ArcGIS Desktop with your portal, however when I click 'Connect' within the ArcGIS Administrator as shown below... ...I am presented with this Security Alert. If I click 'Yes' and continue, I am presented with the same message again. If I click 'Yes' again and then 'Save', all seems well... ...Then when I fire up ArcMap and click 'File', I am not presented with an automatic 'Sign In' nor a connection to my ArcGIS Portal, despite apparently having Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA) set up successfully. So I am unsuccessful in connecting to my Portal via ArcGIS Desktop in this particular environment. In another environment I have had success connecting to my Portal, and the only difference I noticed between the two approaches was that in the scenario above I am presented with the Security Alert regarding certificates and server authentication, whereas in the successful connection I was not. Is this a certificate issue? How do I resolve it?

Thanks to all who offered suggestions on how to resolve. The problem was in fact what Abdullah suggested, there was another field with raster which was difficult to find because the list of attribute fields in the feature class was very extensive. Removing this field and adding another raster resolved.

I have an ArcMap layout containing some MS Excel charts. I am familiar with the ability to dynamically link the charts via Insert > Object, however I don't believe this to be fit for my purpose because I wish to create a raster catalog containing images of the charts so that I can cycle them through products in a data driven fashion. So I have experimented with converting my Excel charts to a number of different image formats including PNG, JPG, BMP, TIF. Regardless of which format I am using, every time I export the product to PDF the quality of the Excel charts degrades to a point where I don't feel they are useable. I can achieve the desired level of quality when I copy and paste the chart directly from Excel to ArcMap, but this method means I am unable to utilise data driven pages. Does anybody have a suggestion about how to best tackle this issue?

I am trying to add a raster image to describe a feature, yes. I don't understand why I don't have the option to create a raster field on my feature class. I do on other feature classes.

I am unable to add new fields of type 'Raster' to my polygon feature class being used for Data Driven Pages. The option doesn't appear in the drop down list in ArcCatalog. I don't think the two issues are related, as I have tried disabling DDP and am still unable to add raster fields to this feature class, though I can for other feature classes. What might be causing this?

The easiest way to do this is by using the <ACP> </ACP> (All Capitals) tag. e.g. <ACP><dyn type="date" format="MMMM"/> <dyn type="date" format="yyy"/></ACP>

Is there any way of telling if the "LINE_BEARING" calculates magnetic or grid?

I see where I went wrong. Looking at the attribute table, there were multiple fields for Z values. I made the assumption points on land were positive Z and points in the water were negative Z. On further examination, the negative Z values in the attribute table were simply inverted with the Field Calculator or Excel, but the feature geometry retained positive Z values. I tested this by calculating the geometry of my features and realised my "depths" were actually "elevations". I resolved the issue by using the "Adjust 3D Z" tool to 'reverse' the sign of the feature Z geometry. Recalculated the 'Near 3D' values and got the expected result. Put this one down to user error.

Thanks for the info Dan. I am on ArcMap version 10.4.1. My datasets are in grid coordinates (projected), so not affected by the geographic coordinate bug. Surprised to see there are so many bugs with this tool. Alternatively, is there a better way to compare Z values of nearest points? Ultimately I'm looking to run analysis between the two layers to find a mean value by which I could block shift one dataset to meet another. I know there is the cut/fill tool if I build rasters. But it'd be nice if the analysis can be done at the vector level.

I have two point feature classes, both containing negative Z values, and I wish to compare the Z values of near features. When I run the tool, I notice that the algorithm actually adds the difference between the Z values. For example: Dataset A has a feature with Z value of "-5.5". Dataset B has a feature with Z value of "-4.5". These two features are considered "near". When running the Near 3D (3D Analyst) tool, it calculates the field "NEAR_DELTZ" to be "+10.0" (i.e. -5.5 - 4.5 = +10.0), instead of my expected delta of "1.0". Is there a way to calculate the Z value between two negative values, without having to recalculate the fields to have one positive and one negative?

So I was able to successfully perform this operation using FME Universal Translator, converting the WFS URL to a File Geodatabase. Tip for young players: don't have ArcGIS open whilst running the script, or else you'll get a lock error with the output gdb. So I have achieved my desired output, however I would still like to know why I cannot get the 'WFS to Feature Class' tool in ArcGIS to perform the same function as FME.

Hi all, I am having some trouble executing the WFS to Feature Class tool. I know that the WFS connection must be working, as once I punch in the URL to the GP tool, a drop down list of the relevant features is populated. I specify an empty geodatabase at the root level as my export location, but get the following error: ERROR 000366: Invalid geometry type Failed to execute (WFSToFeatureClass). 000366 : Invalid geometry type. Description The geometry type of the input is invalid for the operation. The geometry types are point, polyline, and polygon. The input feature dataset must be of the correct type for the tool. Solution Check the documentation for the tool to determine which geometry type is supported for the operation, and ensure that you are using the correct type as input. I feel I've tried everything, but am not having any success getting this to work. Any suggestions?
