Awesome, thank you very much! This did the trick. I only removed the db folder in the usr/arcgisportal/ directory, I did not have a config-store-connection.json file at the time. Is this a common bug? Or do you have any idea what causes this issue? For future deployments, I maybe have to add something to my installation script. Thanks again for your help.

I have a problem with the installation of ArcGIS Portal (on Linux). After the installation I want to create an admin portal account. For some reason, ArcGIS Portal thinks I need to upgrade Portal. In the createadmin.html page, I can only see 'continue Portal upgrade'. I installed it on a complete new server with the newest software (10.6.1). I scripted the whole installation process with Ansible and already successfully installed ArcGIS Enterprise on 4 different machines (test-server). The same script fails with these new servers, as I get the error: Starting the createportal utility.\n==================================================\n\nChecking if the portal is initialized.\n\nThe portal is not initialized.\n\nValidating portal.\n\nConfiguring the portal.\n\nIndex Service configuration failed.\n\nFailed to configure the portal.\n\nExiting the createportal utility.", "stdout_lines": ["==================================================", "Starting the createportal utility.", "==================================================", "", "Checking if the portal is initialized.", "", "The portal is not initialized.", "", "Validating portal.", "", "Configuring the portal.", "", "Index Service configuration failed.", "", "Failed to configure the portal.", "", "Exiting the createportal utility."]} As said, if I go to the webpage instead, it says I have to upgrade Portal first. If I try this, it fails also. I have no clue what could be the problem. I tried to reinstall, manually install with command line but with no luck. The weirdest thing is that I use the same script on a different machine with success. Both deployments are the same. I do use the same provisioning file on both deployments, but I have been told that a test and development deployment can use the same license file. Also, the error seems not to be the cause of the license file since the installation went well and error message state nothing about a license problem? Do any of you have any idea what could be the problem? Thanks in advance!

I would like to automate as much as possible with the ArcGIS Enterprise deployment. At the moment I have automated the basic deployment of ArcGIS Enterprise (on linux) using silent install scripts and python-scripts Esri made available, in combination with Ansible. Now I want to customize Portal by creating a homepage, federate a server etc. The idea is that in future deployments, we don't have to customize the Portal again. I could not find a single script where I can change settings of Portal, is there any way I can do this? Or do I have to do this via the web in Portal itself? We are currently using ArcGIS Enterprise 10.6.1

Thanks for the info. I have made a testcase with a local ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS Enterprise edition and geoprocessing services could be very handy. At the moment, I got some tools working but only with small datasets (5000 records). If I try to use geoprocessing services with larger datasets the geoprocessing stays stuck on 'pending'. The process never starts on the server site. Are there any known limitations on using this geoprocessing service method with ArcGIS Pro?

in our organization we are currently facing a transition from ArcMap towards ArcGIS Pro and/or ArcGIS Enterprise. Since ArcGIS Pro is demanding a lot more hardware than ArcMap, we are looking through all possibilities. Because Pro is demanding a lot of resources we were wondering if it is also possible to do all (or a lot) of analysis on the server site instead of locally on the desktop. That way, we need a smaller amount of resources locally. In theory we maybe want to use ArcGIS Enterprise servers for the geoprocessing of ArcGIS pro tools. I saw some documentation on Geoprocessing services, which looks like it could do just that, but it seems like this is more focussed on custom geoprocesses. Is it possible to publish standard geoprocesses in portal, for instance a buffer, and use these processes in ArcGIS Pro? I'm not sure how user friendly this is and I'm also wondering if this makes geoprocessing potentially faster than using it on a local machine on desktop? And does this make it possible to keep the gpu and ram requirements on the minimum for ArcGIS Pro? Thanks in advance.
