  1. ArcGIS Issues Oct 3 2011

  2. Oct 4 to mimic our issue • Launch ArcGIS 10 on your computer • You are standard user • Must have c:/temp as writeable by you • Download ftp://ftp.ecn.purdue.edu/abegis/asm540/Spatial_tutorial.zip to c:/temp and unzip there • Use ArcGIS file menu to open C:\Temp\Spatial_tutorial\asm540_spatial.mxd

  3. Oct 4 to mimic our issue • Behind the scene, this file you are going to open has set default working space to c:/temp rather then your “profile”, which does not seem to be very acceptable to Arcgisprogram. • \\guardian.ics.purdue.edu\theller\My Documents\ArcGIS\Default.gdb seems to drastically slow functions ( 10 X time to write same data versus C:\Temp\Spatial_tutorial\class.gdb) • I think the default also leads to more probs during calculations

  4. Problem 1 – very long time to open arcToolbox. A known issue at semester start, it seems worse. Touch this tool to open it. This really should not take 10 minutes. I think the difficulty (freeze-up) we see when users later try using network directories is also related to this( we can disable network data search - may be good solution to freeze-ups) . Current default workspace/scratch space is geodatabase in network copy of profile and is faster, more rugged to use c:/temp instead.

  5. 2 3 1 Next Problem 2, and the show-stopper so far Double-click this layer name to launch symbology; select “classified” if needed, touch “classify” and see error

  6. This symbology tool should be populated with options (by the “graphic server”) This is next screen

  7. End of error replication • Next we look at some suggs for pre-installation checks and patches

  8. ESRI will ask me:

  10. Pre-install checklist http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/21056-AcrGIS-won-t-install?p=69020#post69020 • If there is a VALUE RegistrySizeLimit, you will modify it. But if there is not a VALUE RegistrySizeLimit, you will create it and then modify it. • One additional update to apply is to install MSXML4 SP3 and one update. You can download them from these links: MSXML4 SP3 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/e...displaylang=enMSXML4 SP3 patch KB973685 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/e...displaylang=en

  11. Precondition: RegistrySizeLimit – not set

  12. I can not add the missing value, not clear if its important

  13. One other precondition: dot net 3.5

  14. “pause” default network data searches • One of the first things I would do in any case is shutoff the Search indexing. • Do that from ArcCatalog --> Windows --> Search, click on the "Index / Search Configuration" button at the top of the panel. • A dialog box will open and click on the "Pause Indexing". I leave this feature disabled in general as it is not worth the performance impact the indexing entails, and if you are indexing remote database servers--horrors. Do that by setting the hours and days settings to 1800, and removing all items from the Register Folders and Server Connections listing--in any case be sure the "Skip server connections.." is checked and the "Indexing Status" shows Paused. You can delete the index as well for good measure. OK to save. • Exit from ArcCatalog and now delete the ArcToolbox configuration file--ArcToolbox.dat, it is located at: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\ESRI\Desktop10.0\ArcToolbox\ArcToolbox.dat • A new one is created at next launch
