Diagnosing ArcGIS Server Map Services

The Diagnose ArcGIS Server Map Services tool provides you with a series of diagnostic tests on the ArcGIS Server services. You can run diagnostics for each service individually. The diagnostic tests include:

  • Check if the Accela Silverlight GIS server can connect to the ArcGIS Server.

  • Check if the map service information on the ArcGIS Server is different than what is cached in the Accela Silverlight GIS server.

  • Check if the geodata service information on the ArcGIS Server is different than what is cached in the Accela Silverlight GIS server.

    The Accela Silverlight GIS Administration site displays the Administration home page.

    The Accela Silverlight GIS Administration site runs diagnostic tests for the map service, displays the results in the Diagnosis Result field, and provides possible causes and applicable solutions in the Analysis Result field.

  6. Do any of the following:

    • If Accela Silverlight GIS does not work properly but the diagnostic tool does not find any problem, clear the ArcGIS Server cache and run the tests again.

      You can click the Clear ArcGIS Server Cache link to open the ArcGIS Server Constructed API Admin Login page and clear the cache. For more information, see http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/rest/apiref/admin.html.
