We recently federated Portal and server and I inadvertently deleted a service registration.  The service still exists on the Server and I'd like to force a new registration rather than delete and republish. I've done some searching and have had no luck finding how to, but I figure there has got to be a way. Do I manually re-register and embed admin creds?  Is there a handy-dandy tool I can run on one service? Help? Thanks! ... View more

We recently added a second machine to our arcgis server site.  We did this mostly for redundancy, rather than performance reasons. After adding the machine, we've had some issues with it being slow to publish, administer and view services in Manager.  Using them from the rest endpoint seems fine. It's so slow I'm concerned about a revolt, but with less than 5 people doing the things that are slow, I do have a bit of wiggle room. It was fine before adding the second machine. Environment: 10.4.1 - fully patched  (including both publishing patches) 2 blade servers - different versions of windows (I know - bad!)  I plan to upgrade the older one after summer, if I can get that much time. 1 web adapter in a VM Config store is on a network file share ...

I've done a search and tried a few things and nothing is working.  This is the error we're getting: There is an error during the draw <layer name>(1.) DBMS table not found[42S02:[Microsoft][ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server][SQL Server]Invalid object name '<DB name>,(2.) <service Account>,(3.) <view/table>',(4.) ]. It's ONLY happening on non-SDE databases.  They reside on the same SQL server as SDE. It's ONLY happening after upgrading to 10.4.1 from 10.3.1.  Prior to the upgrade, it all worked fine. We can view the data just fine in ArcMap, but once the service is published, we get errors in the Service when we try to load it and nothing draws. What we have checked: We can replicate it on other servers, so it's clearly not a one off. MSSQL DB version is 2014 Enterprise edition. Up to date DB drivers. All ArcGIS for Server updates are done. Service accounts have permissions in the DB. Data store is registered and validates. Service doesn't load in browser OR in ArcMap.  Which is as I would expect since I suspect the server. We occasionally get : Failed to rename cache folder. We have even tried a test server, creating a new service from scratch and publishing as the service account with no luck. I'm looking for some ideas.  What have we missed? ... View more

We're just rolling out a sharepoint 2013 install and I had some good thoughts.  I poked around the documentation a bit and didn't really see what I wanted. I'd like to use a custom geocoder to the address geo coding.  We have certain location descriptions that aren't in the ESRI default geo coder and never will be, but are legal land descriptions that we use daily. Also, I'd like to use the custom geocoder to feed a auto-complete metadata field in SharePoint.  Can I do it? Thanks! ... View more

How can I give an app I created in developer edition to another editor to make modifications to?  Download/upload is a BAD answer. We need to be able to have multiple people able to make changes to an app.  In the event of staff turnover or vacation or shifting responsibilities.  And we shouldn't have to change the URL to do it. If there is no way currently, I'll submit to the Idea page. Thanks! ... View more
