Just an FYI - There is no need to put in duplicate questions in the forums, since the same people usually see most of them.  To tag other groups or people, use the @ and the group name like Robert did above.  The post will then show up there too.  I will mark the other two posts as dupes and link to this one.  You can delete those too if you want.  Always better to keep one post so all the answers are in one place. As far as renewal, I think you typically have to go through your customer rep or local distributor. The page https://www.arcgis.com/features/plans/pricing.html    has a link at the bottom for "outside the US" Contact Us | Esri About    Maybe that will help? edit:  there is a little more info in the other posts, so you can maybe edit this one to include info.  Make sure not to include any personal or customer number specific info.

So, they want something GIS based, but no GIS software?  Does that mean no local ArcMap/Pro or any mobile apps at all, or just not any that need internet/network access? Are they just viewing and navigating with the data? Or are they needing to collect and/or edit the data.   There are ways to package/tile things like basemaps (again, check licensing for the data) and shapefiles can still be created, so there are ways that you can be offline, assuming they have the application and/or software to look at it. If it's just a matter of being off the network/internet, but they can still purchase Pro/Desktop, and you are the developer, you may be able to give the tile packages for basemaps and other that can be used offline 100% (again, check on licensing for the data you are getting).  If the org is local government and is part of the Alaska Statewide Data Mappin Initiative (AGC), they may have access to the data collected thru that.  Alaska Geospatial Council   to read more about that data. If they are not  able to get any esri software, then you will have to look at 1) what the other software can take, and 2) licensing on the data for that purpose.  There are many agencies up here that are remote and/or in field camps for the summer without any internet connection.  We have short-term checkout licenses for our staff that are in this situation...they take whatever data they use for their project.  Others have been using apps like Collector and Survey 123 (esri products, you can find more on the developer pages I mentions before) and they connect up to non-public services on ArcGIS Online or our local ArcSDE.  Both of those do require some network connections when in the office, but can be offline when in the field.  So, there may be options, and there may be others out there that have done the same already, but each case may differ some. I'm getting long winded, but things to think about, and hopefully others will give some advice. ... View more

Hi James,  tagging the Alaska GIS Users‌ group for you. Is this going to be public facing at all, or just for collecting and internal use? Are you planning on using mobile devices?   You may want to check out the Developer pages to see some of the app and dev environments that exist.  There is an "offline" topic Work Offline | ArcGIS for Developers  that might get you started.  You will most likely need at least some esri software to author the data, whether this is ArcGIS Pro (which can work offline) with ArcGIS Online to start, or use ArcMap/Catalog to create tile packages and such. ( Be careful not to violate any licensing if you plan to use the data and not use esri software at some point. ) to test things out, you can get a free developers license for Online to see what it can do, etc.  Hope that can get you started. ...

And the interesting thing to me is that the Image Server install is an ArcGIS Server install, with an added role (I think that is the terminology).  But the licencing of the 10.6 for Image Server is no longer an extension, so you are allowed to have it on two machines.  When it was an extension, it had to be on the one machine.   So as Jake mentioned, not mandatory to have it separate, just recommended. edit: btw, my guess is the recommended system requirements are the same as for ArcGIS Server  ArcGIS Server 10.6 system requirements—ArcGIS Enterprise system requirements | ArcGIS Enterprise  ...

Keep in mind what I mentioned before "I have commented our any commands that will do anything, and only did a partial list of the CalculateField commands."  I did this since I wouldn't have any of your files to run against it. What I setup with the lines like cf = arcpy.CalculateField_management(gdfc, gExt, vExt, "VB", "") was ONLY so I could print out what the values are for the command.  If all that looks good, you will want to repeat the line without the cf =, for example, in your code arcpy.CalculateField_management(gdfc, gExt, vExt, "VB", "") The reason I used the  .format  syntax is it easier for the print statement to make sure it was a text value for printing.  If your format and print shows that you are putting the correct values in, add the lines like above right after the print command (modify as needed for each command, of course) ...

So, this isn't a complete solution, and it may be something with the select statement, but it always helps to do a "print" or arcpy.AddMessage to your script to see what the variable values are and make sure things exist.  I have commented our any commands that will do anything, and only did a partial list of the CalculateField commands.  There are many ways to do this, but maybe this will help you spot the issue.  Hope it helps. import arcpy, sys, string, os, subprocess gdfc = "myGdfc"  #arcpy.GetParameterAsText(0) vwfc = "myVwfc"  #arcpy.GetParameterAsText(1) vwd = r'C:\Users\rbasaria\AppData\Roaming\ESRI\Desktop10.4\ArcCatalog\MDCTest_1025.sde' arcpy.Exists(vwd) gca = vca = "Conservation_Area_Name" gcn = vcn = "Conservation_Area_Number" gn = vn = "Network" gfi = "Field_ID" gai = "Asset_ID" gt1n = "Tier_1_System_Name" gt1t = "Tier_1_System_Type" gt2n = "Tier_2_Major_Subsystem_Name" gt2t = "Tier_2_Major_Subsystem_Type" gt3n = "Tier_3_Minor_Subsystem_Name" gt3t = "Tier_3_Minor_Subsystem_Type" gt4n = "Asset_Name" vfi = "FieldID" vai = "AssetID" vt1n = "Tier_1_Name" vt1t = "Tier_1_Type" vt2n = "Tier_2_Name" vt2t = "Tier_2_Type" vt3n = "Tier_3_Name" vt3t = "Tier_3_Type" vt4n = "Tier_4_Name" #slct = gdfc+"."+gai+" IS NULL OR ("+gdfc+"."+gai+" <> "+vwfc+"."+vai+")" slct = "g IS NULL OR (g <> v)" print(slct) aj = "arcpy.AddJoin_management({0}, {1}, {2}, {3})".format(gdfc, gfi, vwfc, vfi) print("addJoin: {0}".format(aj)) #arcpy.AddJoin_management(gdfc, gfi, vwfc, vfi) sla = 'arcpy.SelectLayerByAttribute_management({0}, "NEW_SELECTION", "{1}")'.format(gdfc, slct) print("SelectLayerByAttribute: {0}".format(sla)) #arcpy.SelectLayerByAttribute_management(gdfc, "NEW_SELECTION", slct) g = os.path.join(gdfc, gai) v = os.path.join(vwfc, vai) print("  g: {0}\n  v: {1}".format(g, v)) cfList = [[gai, vai], [gca, vca], [gcn, vcn]] for gExt, vExt in cfList:     cf = ('arcpy.CalculateField_management({0}, {1}, {2}, "VB", ""'.format(gdfc, gExt, vExt))     print("CalculateField: {0}".format(cf))     #arcpy.CalculateField_management(gdfc, gExt, vExt, "VB", "")     ''' arcpy.CalculateField_management(gdfc, gdfc+"."+gai, vwfc+"."+vai, "VB", "") arcpy.CalculateField_management(gdfc, gdfc+"."+gca, vwfc+"."+vca, "VB", "") arcpy.CalculateField_management(gdfc, gdfc+"."+gcn, vwfc+"."+vcn, "VB", "") arcpy.CalculateField_management(gdfc, gdfc+"."+gn, vwfc+"."+vn, "VB", "") arcpy.CalculateField_management(gdfc, gdfc+"."+gt1n, vwfc+"."+vt1n, "VB", "") arcpy.CalculateField_management(gdfc, gdfc+"."+gt1t, vwfc+"."+vt1t, "VB", "") arcpy.CalculateField_management(gdfc, gdfc+"."+gt2n, vwfc+"."+vt2n, "VB", "") arcpy.CalculateField_management(gdfc, gdfc+"."+gt2t, vwfc+"."+vt2t, "VB", "") arcpy.CalculateField_management(gdfc, gdfc+"."+gt3n, vwfc+"."+vt3n, "VB", "") arcpy.CalculateField_management(gdfc, gdfc+"."+gt3t, vwfc+"."+vt3t, "VB", "") arcpy.CalculateField_management(gdfc, gdfc+"."+gt4n, vwfc+"."+vt4n, "VB", "") arcpy.SelectLayerByAttribute(gdfc, "CLEAR_SELECTION", "") arcpy.RemoveJoin_management(gdfc)'''‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ...

I've had this issue in the past and had to book 2 hotels to get the full week (and I agree, many do stay thru Friday).  But most years, the waiting list did open up a slot, but not always at the cheaper rate.  Many people bail just before the hotel drop date, so watch the cutoff date and keep your eyes open.  (I'm not going this year, so haven't paid attention to the cutoff date). ...

Although I'm all for learning as you go, you may want to look at the addin I have that will help.  /blogs/myAlaskaGIS/2015/08/31/python-addin-for-data-inventory-and-broken-link-repair?sr=search&searchId=d80df459-5e30-4bca-aca1-be87818f93d2&searchIndex=1‌   If it's the same relative change for all sources, there is a way to use this to change just the server or path for all.  If the sources aren't broken now, you can just temporarily change the folder name to break them to get a list, if needed. If you still want to write something so you can learn, you can just change the .addin to .zip and extrace the .py scripts to see what I have done.  I had a massive amount, with all kinds of different sources (including sde, coverages and shapes) so it it a bit more complex than most need it to be. ...

I never run the wizard once I have stubbed it out.  The rest I do in code. So, I would say yes.  But I do have to run the makeaddin.py again it I want it to bundle the addin into a .addin file for distribution.  The .addin file is really just a .zip file, so you could in theory rename the .addin to zip, edit the file, and rename. But rremember, it will be out of sync if you haven't edited the source config.xml and then run the makeaddin.py again. Important: always keep a backup before doing this. I have actually tried to keep my versions as 10.2.x because it seems that I had other versioning errors.  But that may have been just me and maybe I caused it by doing something else. Hard to know for sure. ... View more

I agree with Dan that relative works better.  FWIW, I was running into an issue in 10.5.x (wasn't an issue in 10.2.x) where using a network UNC/share-name would stick the local drive letter in front of the path so it wouldn't be found anymore. if you are talking about an actual addin (i.e. Starting with the wizard to setup the addin) I know once you have the addin installed, you can usually copy the folder with the <ID> to a new machine and it will find everything, if that helps.  I was having issues with the .addin file installing in 10.5.1 by just double clicking, but just fully upgrading from 10.3.1 right now, so I just may not have figured out the trick.  Addins like these do not work in Pro, but you can usually go to the toolbox and make it work.  I also have not included models in my addins, however, in case it helps, I do have a doc that contains some times for Python addins  https://community.esri.com/thread/74093-tip-python-addins-getting-custom-toolstoolbox-to-work-gptooldialog-error-and-other-tips-822017  It started out as a worksaround and info about that error  but I have a few other tips I have discovered.  Fwiw. ...
