I have several map services running on the same server / AGS instance and one of them, which sources all its data from File GeoDatabases (which are registered folders on the server) periodically logs the following message in AGS (tagged SEVERE).

Method failed.HRESULT = 0x80070057 : The parameter is incorrect


The service is configured to always draw data dynamically, and has never been configured to create / use a tile cache. However, it also periodically logs

Failed to rename cache folder


This message is also tagged SEVERE. There doesn't seem to be any issue rendering data, and rendering time is good, so I have no idea if this is a problem or not.

Any suggestions on what's going on here would be much appreciated.

It's tough to say what that error could be caused by since there doesn't seem to be any impact on performance.

Do you have any other services published using the same file geodatabase data? Do they log similar errors? If you don't have any other services that use this data, can you publish a test one that does and see if it logs the same errors?

Can you try republishing this service?

Tom, can you do this test?

1) with browser go in rest directory service
2) select a service and a layer in service
3) do a query (example only where ...)
4) repeat same query
Have you an error?

I have seen that I log these errors with this operations (10 sp1 and fgdb and dynamic service) but I am not sure if it is this problem. Seem that ags fails retrieve results of the same request from its cache.

we have the same problem on one of our feature access service. What does the error message mean?

We have the same problem. Services producing these entries in the log files but in our case, it did affect the service. The service could be viewed from the rest endpoint but none of the layers were available.

Here's the error description from 10.1 help:

http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/index.html#//00vp00000033001499

Description
The cache folder gets renamed prior to being deleted. That rename process has failed. The cache folder may be open in some other window. Some other application may currently be consuming the cache folder. The cache folder could be set to read-only.
Solution
Make sure that the service cache directory and its folders are not open in any other program or window and that they are not read-only
.


Is it possible that the permissions for the cache directory maybe set up incorrectly? The Arcgis server administrator group would need read/write permissions.

Hi,

Did anyone confirm this to be related to the permissions on the cache directory? We have a client with the same error who have service issues around no cache data getting displayed.

Regards, Tony

Hi,

I am experiencing the same problem as everyone else on this thread. The two error messages are logged every time I publish/re-publish a service. The map services seem to work fine, although we've had some issues with users not being able to save their field edits. The error message reads "An error occurred while posting feature edits. Unable to compute operation". After several attempts the edits do get saved eventually. I am not sure if this issue is related to this error message or not, we've also had some issues with our SDE database...

Does anybody have any updates on this?

Thank you very much!

niels - the URL you provided appears to be in a password-protected beta testing area.  Are you able to extract and post some text?  I am currently dealing with the same issue...
