Resolving ERROR 001272: Analyzer Errors in ArcGIS Enterprise

===========================================================

Introduction

When publishing a map service in ArcGIS Enterprise, you may encounter the ERROR 001272: Analyzer errors were encountered (codes = 7) error. This error can be frustrating, especially when you're unable to find detailed information about it. In this article, we'll delve into the possible causes of this error and provide solutions to help you resolve the issue.

Understanding the Error

The ERROR 001272 typically occurs when there's an issue with the definition query of a layer in your map service. Specifically, it's related to the use of SHAPE.STLength() or SHAPE.STArea() functions in the query. These functions are used to calculate the length or area of a shape, but they can cause problems when publishing the service.

Causes of the Error

Based on the Esri Community forum discussion, the error can be caused by:

• Using SHAPE.STLength() or SHAPE.STArea() functions in the definition query
• Having a spatial view in the map service (although this is not the primary cause)
• Incorrect syntax in the definition query

Solutions

To resolve the ERROR 001272, try the following:

• Remove the definition query: If possible, remove the definition query and re-publish the service. This will help you determine if the query is indeed the cause of the error.
• Modify the definition query: If you need to use the SHAPE.STLength() or SHAPE.STArea() functions, try modifying the query to use alternative methods, such as using a calculated field or a different query syntax.
• Check the syntax: Verify that the syntax of your definition query is correct. Make sure to use the correct quotes and syntax for the query.
• Contact Esri Support: If none of the above solutions work, it's recommended to contact Esri Support for further assistance.
