ArcGIS Enterprise

Currently using 10.7.1

ArcGIS Portal

Where do files get stored??

Image files

If you upload a file (say, an image) in Portal using "Add from computer", you can reference it using a URL for example to use it as a thumbnail. It will be assigned a GUID and then stored in C:/arcgis/arcgisportal/content/items/495fe19ccfb847a286f8b4e98a400e16/download.jpg When you use this method you can get the URL from Portal too, in this case it's https://delta.co.clatsop.or.us/portal/sharing/rest/content/items/495fe19ccfb847a286f8b4e98a400e16/data Curiously there is no indication in the URL that the item is an image. It's just "data".

Note if you change its name when you upload it, it will not rename the file. So if you tell Portal the name is "House" that's what you will see in Portal but the actual file will still be house_over_water.png

If you upload a thumbnail directly, for example, for a map from its "details" page, the file gets uploaded to the folder that has the map in it, for example, in C:/arcgis/arcgisportal/content/items/0b842b314c27452ca372561b3078f44d/esriinfo/thumbnail/house_over_water_orig.png and a new, thumbnail sized version (200 x 133) will be saved as house_over_water.png

ArcGIS DataStore

FAIL: The WEB GUI for the DataStore says there is already a relational store but will not let me connect to it because it's already there.

Relational data is stored in postgresql in c:\arcgis\arcgisdatastore\pgdata and commands are in c:\arcgis\arcgisdatastore\pgsql10.6\bin Note that the "10.6" here refers to the version of Postgres not the version of ArcGIS. Tile caches are stored in couchdb (nosql) on my server they are in c:\arcgis\arcgisdatastore\nosqldata

See c:\Program Files\ArcGIS\DataStore\, for example this command will reveal the location of the data files on your server, I suppose it varies...

cat "$AGSDATASTORE"/etc/arcgis-data-store-config.properties
#Thu Oct 24 10:58:06 PDT 2019
dir.data=C\:/arcgis/arcgisdatastore/

I can use psql! I can use pg_config, see?

Operation completed successfully.

From the describedatastore command I learned there really is still a relational data store in there, it's just not connected up. I think it got disconnected a few months ago. I need a place to stash hosted data so after 10.6 -> 10.7.1 I resurrected it. I probably only need to use the registerdatastore command.

Tile cache

The DataStore also includes a "Tile Cache" that's not really a tile cache. It's actually CouchDB running on port 29080. I can see the Fauxton interface, http://cc-gis:29080/_utils but I have to know what my credentials are. Turns out it's easy to find out! Do this as powershell admin user

c:\Program Files\ArcGIS\DataStore\tools\listadminusers.bat and lookie, it exposes all admin and password entries for PostgreSQL and CouchDB DataStore!

It's not a tile cache

Curiously there do not appear to be any documents stored here. Just a configuration. Yet my server does indeed have tiles... I asked about it in the ESRI forum and was told that the Tile Cache is actually used for storing Scenes. I have not tried creating any scenes yet so it's empty.

Older stuff

SSL and HTTPS

Today I noticed error messages about a "weak certificate" in my debug log for OpenLayers. I had to navigate to the server to refresh the certificate (to tell it that a self signed cert was okay in other words.) Once I did that pages loaded again in OpenLayers.

I needed to get "Let's Encrypt" set up on my (Linux based) ArcGIS Server. I did this later on. Note Let's Encrypt only wants to install onto public facing web servers so you will have problems if you have a server that's locked up behind a firewall.

Installing into an Ubuntu VirtualBox VM on Bellman

After installing Ubuntu,

apt update
apt upgrade
apt install emacs-nox build-essential tomcat8 tomcat8-admin

I had to issue the mount command myself to get the VirtualBox additions cdrom to play.

mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom
cd /media/cdrom
./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run

Now I take a snapshot once the machine is configured and before installing ArcGIS... vboxmanage snapshot server take before_arcgis

I set the vm to share ~bwilson/Downloads and /green/GIS/Data_Repository

Set up tomcat

Edit /etc/tomcat8/tomcat-users.xml and add a user with the role manager-gui. For example,

<role rolename="manager-gui"/>
<user username="tomcat" password="s3cret" roles="manager-gui"/>

Running the Enterprise Builder

Current advice: never use the Builder. Advice direct from ESRI help desk.

The tarball is already unpacked in Downloads, so I ssh into bellman and

sudo -s
cd /media/sf_Downloads
cd EnterpriseBuilder

The instructions are in HTML format, so I NFS mounted the folder on my Mac and opened the toplevel html file in Firefox.

Gather prvc (provisioning files) good luck navigating the ESRI web site!
Run ./Setup

This is like being slapped in the face with a wet Mackerel, since I chose the distribution from ESRI's website. Yep, here it is in the HTML docs too:

 Ubuntu Server LTS 16.04.3

I have this: PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS" Hmmm... that looks okay and in fact their

Ah.. fixing... bumped it to 10GB. Bellman has 32GB so that should be fine. Now it's giving me more instructions. However clumsy these changes might seem to an experienced Linux user, make them to keep ESRI happy:

/sbin/sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

I edited /etc/hosts to put this line in

and I coerced the 127.1.0.1 line to have the domain in it, too.

Log out, log back in as arcgis and check

that will be configured with the portal and server components of your deployment.
These Web Adaptors must already be installed and located on the same machine where you ran the ArcGIS Enterprise Builder.

Okay fine. You told me I don't need Web Adaptor in the deployment but now you block configuration. Over and over I read docs that say I don't need it but every time I try to install, I am blocked when I don't have it.

There is a configuration SCRIPT tucked away though, trying that... it requires -ws and -wp options, so, oh well.

Post-install work

Take another snapshot once it's running.

Set up the services to start automatically at boot. Or do it by hand...

ssh arcgis@duster
datastore/startdatastore.sh
server/startserver.sh
portal/startportal.sh

Versioning

When editing in ArcMap by default all edits are versioned.

https://desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/latest/manage-data/geodatabases/changing-versions-in-arcmap.htm

"Change Version" is disabled (greyed out)

You can't change versions while an edit session is active.

"I can't edit a table because it's not versioned"

Publishing a layer

Registration: I want the data to continue living in SQL Server so first I have to tell the server about it. They call this process registering.
