Hi Jim, Nice one! yes, it was due to the symbology that had been applied to the raster. Thanks very much! ... View more

Hmmm, I think a degree at the equator should be approximately 69 miles (111 kilometers) so, .85 of a degree maybe around 100km... and where in my image it is blocky (in the bottom left), this block size is about 100km, so that is the expected cell size. the whole raster should be cells of this size, I would think, according to how point to raster works. ...

Hi I am not using the LM service... my arcmap install on this box is stand-alone. Everything runs when the user has admin permissions, but I cannot determine where permissions need to be set so that I can run the sched task without admin permissions. Does anyone know which folders are read to get the licensing for a stand-alone install? I'm using process monitor, but it's not raising any alarm bells. I did notice in my reg keys that FlexNetService was set to true.. i tried making this false and re-running but no luck. Thanks, Mike ... View more

Yes, and I have Spatial Analyst installed, authorized, authenticated, polished & shined, and ready to go. But the fact of the matter, is that my check for licenses needs to go through the Desktop version of the geoprocessing python scripts to see this. ... View more

So, the solution I linked to above describes what to do if desktop level of licensing is interfering with a server level of licensing. What's the solution for the problem where I have a server level of licensing blocking me from running python scripts that rely on a desktop level of licensing? From what I've read, one cannot revert or degrade their level of licensing, and I would not want to do this and run the risk of ArcGIS server then not functioning properly. What I don't get is "why are desktop and server part of the same spectrum of licensing??!!" Maybe I can register spatial analyst extension with my server license?  has anyone done this ever? ...

Thanks for helping out with this. How do I edit my (Python?) system paths? It's very strange, because I've had this setup before, and it's worked fine. Thanks again. ... View more

sys.path[0] is just the path that the script is running from I didn't print out other sys.path values, is there a specific value in the list? the only version of python i have is here: D:\Python27\ArcGISx6410.2\python.exe ... View more

Hi Matthew, A "check-out" would occur after checking and seeing that the license is available - I am being told that no license is available, so I cannot proceed to check it out. Besides, a check out would not apply for a stand-alone license, would it? only if there's a license server (which i don't have) I think the real clue is when I print out this statment: arcpy.AddMessage(arcpy.ProductInfo()) and I get as a result: ArcServer This box has arcgis server and arcmap installed.  Perhaps there is a conflict with the "License Levels". Perhaps at the arcserver license level there is no access to desktop extensions via scripting? Someone from ESRI? ... View more

thanks for replying James: I have these lines: if arcpy.CheckExtension("Spatial")=="Available":     do something else:     arcpy.AddMessage("Spatial Analyst Licenses status: "+ arcpy.CheckExtension("Spatial"))     arcpy.AddMessage(arcpy.ProductInfo()) I log the messages out: Spatial Analyst Licenses status: NotLicensed ArcServer When I open ArcMap, it tells me I have spatial analyst. ...
