An error occurred fetching data

Error Message

In ArcGIS Open Data, viewing the table of a dataset from the Table tab returns the following error:

Error:   
An error occurred fetching data.

 

Note:
This error is known to occur in legacy Open Data sites. Migrate to a more recent version, such as ArcGIS Open Data 2.0 or later.

Cause

In some instances, the map administrator(s) of an ArcGIS Open Data site may opt to remove the standard map displayed on the site's page when customizing the layout of the site.

This error occurs when the map on the Open Data site's page is disabled using the following code in the Open Data site's cascading style sheet (CSS):

#map-bar-region{
    display: none;
}

Solution or Workaround

#map-bar-region{
    height: 1px;
    width: 1px;
}

#locator-region{
    visibility: hidden;
}

#controls{
    visibility: hidden;
}
