I keep getting error 260 when I try to copy a feature dataset.  I can copy a feature class from one server to another, but it fails on the feature dataset.   I've tried copying feature datasets in other directories too, but still get the 260 error in ArcGIS.  The error says that the "in_memory" workspace is not supported as the output location.  I've tried setting the environment workspace to the origin directory and to the destination directory, but neither work. The feature dataset that I'm trying to copy does not already exist on the destination directory.  When I run the copy command as a script, I get error 000979: Cannot copy between different workspaces. Here's the crazy thing.  Using another computer (my workstation), I can copy feature datasets just fine using the same script.  It only fails on the Backup ArcSDE server (NDEP-23) which has 29G of physical Memory.  On the server and on my workstation, both computers have ArcGIS 10 SP 4 installed.  I can't understand why one would give the errors and not the other.  Any ideas on what I need to look for in order to fix the copy error on the server? ...

ArcGIS Desktop 10.0 I have a script that copies feature classes and tables from one workspace to another on a schedule.  It is a backup script.  My problem is that when I try to copy a feature class that has a relationship class with a table, the copy fails - because the table that is associated with the feature class by a relationship also tries to be copied and that table already exists.  I would like to have a way to detect if a feature class is in a relationship, and what other featureclasses or tables it shares that relationship with.  I tried the following on a feature class that I know has a relationship, but the result came back empty. >>> desc = arcpy.Describe(r'Database Connections\BWQP_NDEP24.sde\BWQP.AssessedStreams2010') >>> desc <geoprocessing describe data object object at 0x1E829440> >>> print "%-22s %s" % ("RelationshipClassNames:", desc.relationshipClassNames) RelationshipClassNames: [] I'm able to list the relationship classes, but I can't describe them enough to see the feature classes and tables associated with them. >>> rc_list = [c.name for c in arcpy.Describe(workspace).children if c.datatype == "RelationshipClass"] >>> rc_list [u'BWQP.Lakes_to_TMDL', u'BWQP.Lakes_to_Waterbody', u'BWQP.Rivers_to_TMDL', u'BWQP.Rivers_to_Waterbody', u'BWQP.AssessedLakes_to_IR10', u'BWQP.AssessedStreams_to_IR10'] I also read that there is a bug NIM048192 with python in that it does not have access to the key relationship class properties.  Help!! ...

I'd like to have the table compare function output to a in-memory file or variable instead of an actual text file.  Is that possible? I tried using a table variable, but that errored.  I used a string variable and the process worked, but the string was empty.  Any suggestions? This works: arcpy.TableCompare_management(table1, table2, 'OBJECTID', 'ALL', '#', '#', '#', 'NO_CONTINUE_COMPARE', r'C:\Temp\compare_table2.txt') This works, but the string is empty: output_compare_string = '' arcpy.TableCompare_management(table1, table2, 'OBJECTID', 'ALL', '#', '#', '#', 'NO_CONTINUE_COMPARE', output_compare_string) ...

I'm creating a Silverlight web map that is restricted for internal use within our department.  The map service contains sensitive datasets that cannot be published to the public.  Is there a way to make a map service not viewable to the public yet have it accessible for the Silverlight web map?  In the past, I experimented with enabling securities for map services within ArcGIS Server, but that caused all kinds of problems in the Flex web app since many widgets do not work with the secure map service. How well does the Silverlight Viewer work with secure map services? Stephanie ... View more
