Hello, I'm trying to script republishing a map service that already has a cache and am having problems getting it to keep the existing cache. my script is using a combo of arcpy.mapping.CreateMapSDDraft, arcpy.StageService_server and arcpy.UploadServiceDefinition_server.Does anyone have an example of how to script republishing a service while keeping your existing cache? I've been trying to set properties of the .sddraft file by following doc = DOM.parse(sddraft)
#turn on caching in the configuration properties
configProps = doc.getElementsByTagName('ConfigurationProperties')[0]
propArray = configProps.firstChild
propSets = propArray.childNodes
for propSet in propSets:
keyValues = propSet.childNodes
for keyValue in keyValues:
if keyValue.tagName == 'Key':
print "found Key"
print str(keyValue.firstChild.data)
if keyValue.firstChild.data == "KeepExistingMapCache":
print "found keep existing cache prop"
#keep existing caching
keyValue.nextSibling.firstChild.data = 'true'
elif keyValue.firstChild.data == "isCached":
print "found is cached prop"
#turn on caching
keyValue.nextSibling.firstChild.data = 'true'
elif keyValue.firstChild.data == "antialiasingMode":
keyValue.nextSibling.firstChild.data = 'Fast'
Hoping that Im missing something here and thats it's possible to do this. Oh and im using 10.1 sp1 Thanks
