I had a similar issue with my application although the problem was in the startup project. I call ArcGISRuntimeEnvironment.Initialize() in my startup prior to running the bootstrapper so I do need a reference to Esri.ArcGISRuntime in that project. For this project setting to target x64 resolved the problem. I design my application with a core Infrastructure library which is not a module and compile all the module output the bin folder of this project (I use MEF for kind of pseudo DI and use directory discovery to load modules). The core library is set to Any CPU and in this project the two sub folders (client32 and client64) did deploy

Here is the support page that defines the issue and solutions(s). I will also look at the forward lookup zone approach described above http://support.esri.com/technical-article/000012369

Solution is same as here https://community.esri.com/thread/182706-map-failed-to-download-thread-2 . Basically, in order to download a offline database you need to publish the service from ArcMap. Even if you go into Server Manager and add the Sync and Extract capabilities those capabilities do not work and you cannot download.

One we created a domain user to run AGS and then added that database I got everything to work as desired. Then I could register an OS connection and publish the services correctly.

So this Map Failed To Download thread is two years old with no valid answer in sight so I thought I would start a new one and see if others have the same issue and what is being done. I am using versions 10.4.1 of Server and Portal (Federated Server). ArcGIS Pro 1.3.1 and ArcMap 10.3.1. I published services from ArcPro in different configurations: A versioned dataset connected as the data owner A versioned dataset connected as OS credentials An archived dataset connected as the data owner (in a database with versioned datasets) A separate database that only had a single archived dataset One created I went into Server Manager and turned on Sync and Extract for the services With those services I created WebMaps using a TiledMapService basemap pulled from AGOL In all these cases downloading of the map offline failed and on ArcGIS Server the following error was shown in the log: ArcGIS Server Manager SEVERE Error executing tool. CreateFeatureServiceReplica Job ID: j145bde8182624c34a50b709807e0ae51 : Failed to initialize mapserver object. Failed to execute (Create Feature Service Replica). System/SyncTools.GPServer So I decided to try something that I could not imagine would have any affect on the problem. Instead of publishing the services from ArcPro I published the services from ArcMap. I did this: Versioned Dataset using data owner credentials Versioned Dataset using OS connection Archive Dataset (data owner) Use the exact same process to create the WebMaps and in every single case with the services from ArcMap the download worked. In ArcMap one can define Sync and Extract during publication so it was not required to go into Server Manager I realized that another difference was that when I published from ArcMap I was doing it as the built in administrator. So I did this from ArcGIS Pro and the download still failed (same error). At the end of all this all I can conclude is that something is wrong with ArcGIS Pro and these services are corrupt in some way. Sort of a drag that the tool which is supposed to be designed around publishing services cannot be used for this purpose if the goal is to go offline in Collector. I also find the idea that one cannot turn on Sync and Extract from within Pro pretty annoying. Although, maybe the reason for this is that those functions do not work for the Pro services

Good to know that a couple years later and in version 10.4.1 and using ArcGIS Pro to publish this error still occurs. Would be nice if someone from esri could define the issue and even better get it fixed

I have this Warning in my server log constantly and would love to know what it means. I am a Portal Admin, my user is the SQL database admin. What credentials are missing

‎09-02-2016

Thanks again Paul. Is it just me or is some of this stuff with Portal totally cryptic

‎09-01-2016

Thanks for the help, see below I finally got it working. No idea why what I did solved the problem, just that it did. Thanks again. -joe

Well after much trail and tribulation the issue ended up being with how the DNS was configured. We have a Forward Lookup Zone so we can map our 'public' Urls internally within our domain. This allows us to use a wildcard certificate from a public CA internal to our domain even if not exposing the site outside. Normally, I have just configured a Host entry to point right to the IP Address. For some reason (and I have no idea why) when I changed this to a CNAME entry pointing to the internal domain machine name it resolved the issue. I don't know enough about DNS to be able to say why this change resolved the issue, nor why it only occurred on Server 2012 and not 2008. But that was the solution

‎09-01-2016

So I think what seems to be the issue is that internally to our domain we use a Forward Lookup Zone to map Urls to our public domain. This way we use public certificates internally. So even though I am inside the firewall the Url is still https://xxx.ramtech-gis.com/portal, as opposed to https://xxxx.internal.domain/portal. For some reason this seems to be breaking something, but only on Server 2012. I just set things up on a client that uses a domain CA so they don't have this additional lookup zone and everything works. I cannot guarantee that is truly the issue, but it is the only thing I am seeing different in these configurations. Why 2008 would be OK but not 2012 I have no clue

‎09-01-2016

Paul, I have no idea what the deal is, but I have never gotten single sign on to work on a Server 2012R2 machine. In either IE or Chrome it will challenge me and even if I enter my domain credentials it does not seem to pass them through because it won't log me on. We have a hosted environment which only has Server OSs so I have only been able to try on Server 2008 which works fine. From my local Windows 10 machine (when connected to our hosted VPN) it will challenge me and if I enter my domain credentials it passes them through and I log on. This is to be expected because on my local machine I am not logged into the hosted domain. I cannot see anything different in setting on the 2008 machine and the 2012 machine. I am going absolutely insane over this. Basically, I need to turn off Windows Authentication in order for users to log onto the Portal (which they have to do manually). -Joe

Hi, On one instance of Portal we have running when you add a secure service from AGOL the options for saving credentials as seen below do not appear In this case the Username and Password text boxes show up, but not the radio buttons. This basically breaks the ability to use the map with Collector. I have no idea what could be different on this Portal configuration than the others. Is there anything in the computer security that could cause this? Has anyone ever seen this behavior before? Thanks -Joe

‎08-31-2016

I am seeing something similar although not exactly the same but wondering if related. We are trying to add a Tiled Service from AGOL to our Portal. When we add the service it does ask for AGOL credentials, but does not give the ability to Save credentials. Is this because of we are using IWA on the portal? That does not make sense to me that you could not use IWA and access a AGOL service and save credentials

I have had issues registering data with these connections. But in this case the edit operation simply failed. We receieved a message, "Layers are not accessible to Portal for ArcGIS. Thus editing will be disabled on these layers" I am not 100% sure the issue was with the OS authentication, but it seems changing it to DB authentication has fixed the issue. I will go back and play around time permitting and see if I can replicate the error
