Query Fails every other time

TerryGiles · ‎08-29-2013

Running Server 10.1 SP1 on a Win2008R2 box.

I'm trying to root out an issue we're seeing with our JSAPI base map application. The map simply has an Esri basemap and a featurelayer from our server. The featurelayer does not load every time. Using Firebug and IE's f12 tools I can see the response from the Query op issued when the layer is added to the map as

{"error":{"code":400,"message":"Unable to complete operation.","details":[]}}

It happens when I issue query requests to the service without a map too. If I put the following simple query in my browser (happens in IE, FF, Chrome) it works every other time -

http://servername:6080/arcgis/rest/services/folder/service/MapServer/0/query?where=1=1&f=pjson

1st, 3rd, 5th, etc... GET requests yield valid results

{
 "displayFieldName": "Name",
 "fieldAliases": {
  "Name": "Name"
 },
 "geometryType": "esriGeometryPolygon",
 "spatialReference": {
  "wkid": 4326,
  "latestWkid": 4326
 },
 "fields": [
  {
   "name": "Name",
   "type": "esriFieldTypeString",
   "alias": "Name",
   "length": 50
  }
 ],
 "features": [
  {
   "attributes": {
    "Name": "ALC2"
   },
   "geometry": {
    "rings": [
     [
      [
       -107.0837499999999,
       38.841250000000059
      ],
      [
       -107.0837499999999,
       38.841250000000059
      ],
      .... and so on

alternating requests return the same error shown above.

There are no errors shown in the server logs in Manager. I have logging set to verbose and I can see to requests/response (below, the failure has the smaller response size)

Any ideas what's going on and how to fix this?

Thanks, TG

Looks like this is one of those 'known issues' Bug report here - http://support.esri.com/en/bugs/nimbus/TklNMDg2MzQ5

There a work around if you're using a query task (append timestamp to make it unique request) but how can I do that when I'm adding the feature layer to the map??

Thanks, TG
