HP, I'm not sure I understand 100%, but I think the question you are asking is "why does my map service of France show up in Nigeria?".  Here are a few things that might clarify it for people trying to assist you 🙂 Q1. When you published your service, can you go the Service Directory page for that service? The Service Directory page will usually be: http://yourserver/ArcGIS/rest (if you are using ArcGIS Server .NET) For example: http://maps.esrifrance.fr/ArcGIS/rest/services/demo_FFR/MapServer Q2. What projection does it say your Map Service is in? For example, the Map Service above has: "Spatial Reference: 2154" Q3. Is the map cached or not? "Single Fused Map Cache: false" - means that the map is not cached.  If it's "true", then the map is cached. Q4. If you click the "View In ... ArcGIS JavaScript" - does it work? What happens? Q5. If you click the "View In ... ArcGIS.com Map" - does it work? What happens? Q6. Is the service available to the public (so that we can see it directly)? If your ArcGIS Server is on an internal network - is it a secured service? ... View more

The existing 2.3.1 release works with Flex SDK 4.5 (and 4.5.1) - though there's a few things to keep in mind, especially if working with mobile (Android, iOS) devices. There is a good article on the Adobe Developer connection about "Building an Android and iOS mobile mapping application using the ArcGIS API for Flex" http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash-builder/articles/mobile-mapping-app-arcgis.html Recently, Adobe TV also posted an episode about "munitracker" showing the existing Flex API on multiple devices: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/adc-presents/munitracker-app-for-android-and-ios-built-with-flash-builder/ Related article: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/samples/muni-tracker.html But ... while it is possible to use the existing 2.3.1 with the Adobe Flex 4.5 SDK, our next version (2.4) will make it even easier, as well as better for mobile applications. Our plans are to release version 2.4 next month (July). ... View more

Is there a widget ...  where visitors could post comments about the beta site? One way to do that would be to use the StaticImageWidget with an image saying "Please comment", then have it link to a Google Docs spreadsheet or document.  Just an idea 🙂 ... View more

I am trying to access a Navteq web service that uses Quadkey & x/y/z interface via a tiledMapService using ArcGIS Flex API in FlexViewer. If it's not a supported layer, you would have to create your own layer to support this type.  The "Access Custom Tiles" API sample might be helpful. http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/flex/samples/index.html?sample=ExtendTiledLayer_CustomTiles ...

I have an issue when trying to reproduce the WMS layers on/off sample for a Desktop application. It works fine for me:) I created a new Project (Application type: Desktop), added the 2.3.1 swc, added the com.esri.ags.samples, and copied in the WMS sample. Is this your first Desktop AIR project? Have you tried any other samples and got them working? Did you make any other changes to the Flex Project? ... View more

Yes, you can have non-editable feature layers. When you add your feature layers, point it to a layer within a MapService instead of a layer within a FeatureService. "The feature layer can be used to display features from one single layer of either a Feature Service or a Map Service. The layer can be either a (spatial) layer or a (non-spatial) table. The features in a FeatureLayer can be edited if it is based on a Feature Service." http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/flex/apiref/com/esri/ags/layers/FeatureLayer.html ... View more

I want to develop the application for the ios devices like ipad2, iphone4 in arcgis for flex api. yesterday the flex 4.5 has been released, the official say the flex 4.5 support ios and android, so i don't know whether it's ok to develop ipad/iphone apps in arcgis for flex api. any suggestion will be appreciated.[/SIZE] Yes, it's OK.  This is just another feature of the Adobe Flash Builder 4.5.1 that Adobe plans to release in June - which will support compiling Flex apps to native iOS apps. http://coenraets.org/blog/2011/04/flex-charts-on-the-ipad/ http://www.macromediastudio.biz/devnet/flex/trial/examples/28_complex_mobile_app.html ...

Is there a simple way to make a query POST with the api, or do I need to use the Flex HTTPService? The Flex API will automatically use POST when needed. You don't have to do anything. "... will always POST if the URL is longer than 2000 characters or includes a "token" parameter, but using this [the method] property you can force a "POST" even for all other cases." http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/flex/apiref/com/esri/ags/tasks/BaseTask.html#method ...

I am receiving the following error message after I type in some addresses: faultCode:Channel.Security.Error faultString:'Security error accessing url' faultDetail:'Unable to load WSDL. If currently online, please verify the URI and/or format of the WSDL (http://www.geosmartniagara.ca/googleproxy/Service.asmx?WSDL)' I can access this URL from IE8 directly without a problem. When you can access the URL directly but not from a flash application, it is usually due to either a missing crossdomain.xml file, or it's not configured to allow your flash application access. In this case, look at http://www.geosmartniagara.ca/crossdomain.xml and you'll notice that it only allows access for applications hosted on cogeco.ca.  What's the URL for your application? <allow-access-from domain="*.cogeco.ca"/> ...

It is most likely a problem with the IIS security setup.  The following forum post might be helpful - http://forums.asp.net/t/1115232.aspx/1?Server+Error+HTTP+Error+500+19+Internal+Server+Error: "Check the web application folder permission and make sure the following users and groups are included \ASPNET and \IIS_IUSRS and \IUSR." ...

Maybe you're zooming in to an area where there is no data for those levels. "Bing Maps contains different levels of geographic coverage for every country/region in the world. " http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd435699.aspx Try the API sample at http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/flex/samples/index.html?sample=VETiledLayer or the viewer sample at http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapps/flexviewer/live/index.html?config=apps/config-bing.xml In Washington, DC (near the white house), street data will go down to 1:282, but aerial will only go down to 1:564.
