I'm using ArcGIS Server 10.1 secure map services in the Flex Viewer 3.3. I created a token for the web map service that was set to expire in a year and it worked great. I stopped the map service, then restarted it. Now the token on my map service doesn't work in the flex viewer and I'm being prompted to login. I've had this happen a few other times during development of my flex map. Why is this? Shouldn't the token be good on the map service for a year regardless of how many times I stop and start the service? Is this an issue with ArcGIS Server or the flex viewer?

It is an internal development server so you won't be able to see the links (sorry, I should have removed the link from the address). ArcGIS Server 10.1 doesn't use IIS. It uses Apache Geronimo (Tomcat) as the web server. So my confusion was that by default the Flex Viewer "web server base folder" was pointing to the IIS directory, while the "Web server base folder URL" was pointing to the Geronimo web server (the same as my rest services). I updated the URL to point to the IIS website and now it works.

We are using an SSL enabled (self-signed certificate) web server on port 6443 with ArcGIS Server 10.1 SP1. My rest services resolve just fine at https://devgisappvsrv:6443/arcgis/rest/services. However, I cannot get ArcGIS Viewer for Flex 3.2 to accept the web server base folder URL as https://devgisappvsrv:6443/flexviewers. It asks me if I trust the certificate and I click Yes to both messages. But then I see this pop up: "Please check your Web Server Base Folder URL." It won't accept the https version of the web server url. It will accept http://devgisappvsrv:6443/flexviewers, but we don't have http enabled on the server (only https). Help!!

This morning...all the ArcGIS Server connections to secure map services work in ArcGIS Desktop. They didn't work on Monday and Tuesday, but without chaning one thing in the connections...they all work today. Arg! I'm glad they work, but I'd love to know why. I did notice a Java update on my computer this morning, but surely that is not the answer. I didn't even restart my computer. Oh well, that's how it goes I guess 🙂

In ArcGIS Server manager under Security confirugration settings, there are three options for user and role management. The third option is for "Users from an existing enterprise system (LDAP or Windows Domain) and roles from ArcGIS Server's built-in store." This is the option I have chosen. In this way, we can use Windows users but define the roles on the ArcGIS Server side. I'm trying to understand why I am allowed access to secure directories using rest services but cannot access the secure directories in ArcMap's ArcGIS Server connection. http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/index.html#//0154000005qz000000

ArcGIS Server 10.1 SP1, ArcGIS Desktop 10.1 SP1 I have secure map services using port 6443. I'm using a Mix of Windows users and ArcGIS Server built-in roles for permissions to the directory. Through the rest services directory, I can log in as a user that has permission to see that directory. NO problem - I can see the directory and the map service inside it. However, in ArcMap, when I make a ArcGIS Server Connection and use that same user for authentication, I do not see the directory. I don't see any directory or services at all. The connection succeeds, but there is nothing to see. Why would I be able to see the directory through rest services, but not see it in the ArcGIS Server connection?

I need to seperate organizational users who will use Windows authentication from public users who will use Anonymous or database authentication. Our IT group would perfer that these services be hosted on different ports. It appears that ArcGIS Server 10.1 will allow you to connect to a SQL Server database for remote membership (user/role). If this is true, perhaps I could use a mix of windows and databse authentication through the SQL Server database - bypassing the configuration store.

In ArcGIS Server 10.0, we could have multiple web instances which allowed for an instance to use Windows Domain authentication and another instance to use Database Authentication (SQL Server Express). I'm trying to figure out how I can setup this functionality in 10.1. In the GIS Server component, you can choose: 1. User/Roles from AGS built-in store 2. User/Roles from Windows (existing enterprise system) 3. Users for Windows and Roles from AGS built-in store I want BOTH Windows (users/roles) and AGS built-in store (users/roles). How do I do that? Can I set that up by installing multiple instances of the web adaptor? On the server that will host the web adaptor(s), I was thinking I could have two IIS websites (using two different ports). One website would have the web adaptor using Windows Authen, while the second website would have a second install of the web adaptor using ArcGIS Server's built-in store for authentication. If anyone has experience with this type of setup or has a better idea, please share your wisdom. I'd appreciate it.

So ignore my previous post saying the script doesn't find all the relationships on the feature class. This function finds the relationship classes and then tells you the feature classes associated with it. A relationship class can only have two related objects. I think I was trying to get it to work the opposite way. Not sure why I didn't see this before, but I wanted to make sure I corrected my mistake on the forum. The detectRelationship code works but returns the information by print. I'll need to work on the code to get it to combine and return lists (relationship class, origin, destination) that can be called later and used in other functions. Stephanie

When I had problems getting the Publishing Tools service to start, I stopped and started the Windows service ArcGIS Server (formerly known as the SOM/SOC in version 10.0). Stopping the service stops the GIS server on the machine and shuts down any running GIS service instances. When the service starts up, it choose a port(s) from the correct range. I believe ArcGIS Server became corrupted during a failed attempt to publish a regular map service from ArcMap directly. It has only happened one another time since then (also publishing from ArcMap but with a different map document), and restarting the Windows service ArcGIS Server worked for me.

Robert, The above code only detects the FIRST relationship class on a feature class. For example, if a feature class has two relationship classes on two different tables, the code only reports the first relationship and the associated table. Totally ignores the second relationship and table. Ahhh!!! Because of this flaw, I wasn�??t able to use the relationship detector code in my backup script. I discovered that instead of using the Copy function (which brings over related objects), I could use feature class to feature class conversion and table to table conservation which only copies the feature class or table and not the related objects. The overwrite function works with the two conversion functions but not the copy function (NIM046461). Here's a copy of a my script. [ATTACH=CONFIG]21818[/ATTACH] It doesn't work with feature datasets yet. Two of my SDE accounts throw errors when I try to copy feature datasets and I haven't figure out why yet - saving for later when I have time to bang my head against the wall. 🙂 Good Luck!!!

I had to also allow headers in my cross domain file. This worked for me: <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd"> <cross-domain-policy> <site-control permitted-cross-domain-policies="all"/> <allow-access-from domain="*" to-ports="*" /> <allow-http-request-headers-from domain="*" headers="*"/> </cross-domain-policy> This suggestion comes from the Adobe Community Forums at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/223999. Also after updating the crossdomain file, I recycled the default app pool in IIS. Closed and reopened the ArcGIS Viewer for Flex 3.1. No more channel security error.

We were trying to avoid having to purchase a CA certificate (for our internal domain), but it appears we will need to. Thanks for your help!

‎01-22-2013

I think it does. Here's my reasoning and correct me if I'm wrong. It appears that a self-signed certificate generated by ArcGIS Server is enough to enable SSL on the GIS Web Server (https://ndep-25:6443/arcgis/rest/services). Then a certificate issued by a CA is required in order to enable SSL through IIS, using the web adaptor (https://ndep-25/arcgis/rest/services). Does that sound correct?

ArcGIS Server 10.1 SP 1 Windows 64-bit OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard, Service Pack 1 I enabled SSL on ArcGIS Server following these instructions. http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/index.html#/Enabling_SSL_on_ArcGIS_Server_when_accessed_through_the_ArcGIS_Web_Adaptor/015400000600000000/ This internal website works https://ndep-25/arcgis/rest/services, but I get an error in Internet Explorer (and other browsers) that the website's security certificate is not trusted. I also see a warning about an untrusted certificate when I make an administrative connection to ArcGIS Server in ArcCatalog using https://ndep-25:6443/arcgis/admin. If I click Yes to continue through the warning messages, the website and connection works. However, I feel this is not really good. I've tried installing the certificate using the default settings suggested by the browser or ArcCatalog, but that still doesn't make the certificate trusted and I continue to get a warning message that the security certificate is not issued by a trusted certificate authority. Are these warning messages normal? Shouldn't a self-signed certificate that was created using ArcGIS Server be recognized by ArcCatalog as a trusted certificate in order to connect to map services?
