I am adding a List Widget to a Dashboard and want to include a date field using the custom list setup. The default includes the time stamp, but I just want the date. Anyone know how this is configured in this Widget?

I have setup Portal using AD and Windows Authentication. Everything is installed on a Server 2012 R2 machine. The problem is, I cannot get the login to work from a Windows 2012 machine. For some reason it does not seem to pass the credentials correctly. It will just keep challenging me with a login form, over and over Everything works just fine when connecting from a Windows 2008 machine. This is happening with multiple sites and from every Windows 2012 R2 Server. I cannot find anything that describes a setting that needs to be changed on 2012 that does not need to be changed on 2008. Any thoughts? Basically cannot setup to use single sign on, unless I only connect from 2008 machines Thanks -Joe

Paul Davidson Finally got around to taking looking into the Chef stuff. This is great, took me a bit to get an understanding of the pieces (I like to understand black boxes before I use them). And made some first timer mistakes on the configuration settings. But after I muddled through all that it is a great tool set. Once the kinks were worked it probably was less than 90 minutes to build a VM from scratch and have Portal up and running. Want to get a little deeper understanding so I can create the configuration files to set things up on separate servers and understand the ha setup files a little better Thanks for pointing me to this, it will be a huge time saver -Joe

After some help from Mike I was able to find the problem. Another symptom of this issue was that Dashboard application would crash when I tried to connect to our Portal In the end this was a configuration issue. Because of how our domain is configured we use an internal DNS. In setting up the public URL for the portal was included in the domain DNS. For some reason even though I use the public URL when setting up Web Adapter for Portal some Portal configuration still points to the internal machine name. This was causing a name conflict and is the source of the error I see. I ended up removing the domain DNS mapping and then going through the setup on our DMZ machine. This got everything to be correctly using only the public name. After that I am able to connect using the API and Dashboard no longer crashes. After that I was able to add the domain mapping back so the other machines only internal to the domain can access using the public URL

Michael Branscomb Basically the following line of code fails with: System.Net.WebException: Error: NameResolutionFailure at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.EndGetRequestStream var cred = await IdentityManager.Current.GenerateCredentialAsync( new Uri("https://portal.domain.com/arcgis/sharing/rest"), "username", "password") as ArcGISTokenCredential; If I use AGOL then it works. So this works var cred = await IdentityManager.Current.GenerateCredentialAsync( new Uri("http://mycompany.maps.arcgis.com/sharing/rest"), "user", "password") as ArcGISTokenCredential; I would be happy to give you the url and a login to our portal to test, I really need to get this working using a hosted Portal not AGOL

I'll give it a shot using the tool. I had everything installed and working separate, but I could not federate the AGS to Portal. Which defeats the purpose a bit

‎04-06-2016

So I am trying to do just a test setup of Portal and don't want to waste resources. What I am finding is that I cannot federate the AGS to Portal because the Urls basically step on each other. It used to be possible to define the site name when you set up AGS so it did not need to be http:\\agsserver\arcgis. But this no longer seems possible. I have tried a bunch of different things but nothing seems to work. Is this possible? And if so could someone help with how it is done Thanks -Joe

Michael Branscomb would you have any ideas what changes I need to make to setup the credentials to Portal correctly? Should I be using a rest api url and not the portal url? Thanks -Joe

Hi, I use something like, https://portal.mydomain.com/arcgis for our internal portal. This is the same Url I would enter to access to portal in a browser. For trying AGOL I use https://myorganization.maps.arcgis.com/. This is what it seems the help is telling me

Hi, I am trying to do something (that I think should be) very simple, connect to a Portal from a Runtime application. However, when I run TokenCredential credential = await IdentityManager.Current.GenerateCredentialAsync(portalUrl, "username", "password"); An exception is thrown, "The token service URL is not set." This works fine if I am using a service url TokenCredential credential = await IdentityManager.Current.GenerateCredentialAsync(serviceUrl, "username", "password"); What I am doing seems to me to be exactly how it is described here Access the ArcGIS platform—ArcGIS Runtime SDK for .NET | ArcGIS for Developers. But maybe I am missing something. I also tried connecting to our AGOL account and get the same exception. What am I missing? Thanks -Joe

This is the correct solution. Thanks

Applying the cert is not the issue. It is setting up the AD CA (Active Directory Certification Authority) server role that I found complicated. I believe I am in a different implementation situation than you seem to be. As a consultant I am not in control of what an enterprise IT department wants, can, or is willing to do. Usually adding server roles is not something a large IT organization will easily agree to. So if they don't already have their own domain CA it may not be a possible solution. Jacob's initial suggestion I find may be a workable solution in situations were working with a large IT infrastructure is part of the requirement because it can be done without adding server roles. And I agree with Randall Williams in theory. But again, there are situations when one only has so much influence on IT infrastructure and so there needs to be solutions that don't require something like adding a Domain CA.

‎03-14-2016

You have had a different experience than me. I found setting up a AD CA to be a total pain in a 2012 environment and never got it working correct.

‎03-04-2016

Thanks. I kind of knew it required it, but was hoping for a different answer. This is a much easier solution than what I listed I did find this site which I thought a little more concise on adding the certificate: Manage Trusted Root Certificates I do think that esri should re-evaluate the need for https with portal. For internal only facing sites I think it adds unnecessary complexity

Collector for ArcGIS Windows 10 version does not seem to work with Portal When I try to connect to Portal using the same Url I use on my Android device (https://portal.mydomain.com/arcgis). It goes to some page within the /portaladmin API instead of connecting to our Portal (see image below) To re-iterate, this works from an Android device so I know our Portal is setup correctly. Also the Windows 10 Collector does work when I go to AGOL Thanks -Joe
