Hello, I'm looking to get this simple map export to run via an url and am running into issues when importing arcpy. It runs fine locally, but gives a 502-webserver recieved and invalid response while acting as a gateway or proxy server when run from another computer.import cgitb, sys, string, os, arcpy, cgi
cgitb.enable()
print "Content-Type: text/plain;charset=utf-8"
print
#print ""
form = cgi.FieldStorage()
arg = form.getvalue('agn')
#tMapDir = tMapDir
tMapDir = r"C:\inetpub\wwwroot\cgi-bin\Map.pdf"
arcpy.env.overwriteOutput = True
# Get Parameters
agn = arg
# Set Map
mapDoc = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument(r"C:\inetpub\wwwroot\cgi-bin\ContractReport.mxd")
df = arcpy.mapping.ListDataFrames(mapDoc)[0]
lyr = arcpy.mapping.ListLayers(mapDoc, r"ROWs, CAs & Surface Leases", df)[0]
dq = "(INVOICENUMBER = '" + agn + "'" + ")"
lyr.definitionQuery = dq
df.extent = lyr.getExtent()
for elm in arcpy.mapping.ListLayoutElements(mapDoc, "TEXT_ELEMENT"):
if elm.name == "INVOICENUMBER":
elm.text = agn
arcpy.mapping.ExportToPDF(mapDoc, tMapDir, resolution="300", image_quality="NORMAL", layers_attributes="NONE", georef_info=False, jpeg_compression_quality="80")
#Set output file
URL = "http://localhost/cgi-bin/Map.pdf"
print "Content-type:text/html\r\n\r\n"
print '<html> '
print '<head> '
print '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url='
print URL
print '" /> '
print '<title>Request Submitted, Redirecting...</title> '
print '</head> '
print '<body> '
print 'Loading map...'
print URL
print '</body> '
print '</html>'
lyr.definitionQuery = ""
del mapDoc
sys.exit()
The problem is definetly with the import arcpy as I can run a simple helloworld.py with standard py library imports (os, sys, cgi, string, stc) and it is accessbile from other machines. I have a simple default site set up on my computer using IIS 7. Any thoughts on getting arcpy to import for cgi scripts from other computers? I know importing arcpy checks out a license and does wires up arcobjects. Is accesssing the module from a URL even possible?Thanks, James
