Workaround

The problem is that the address locator is using these 2 property valuesMinimumCandidateScore = 5MinimumMatchScore = 5 But the web app ignores them. It hard-coded the properties to 10 & 60. The way to change it is to edit the web app in Visual Studio. Open the Default.aspx in the web app folder e.g. <a href="file:C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/Atlanta" target="_blank">C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Atlanta</a> and change MinCandidateScore and MinMatchScore to the same values set in the locator properties. Then the geocode service will behave the same as the locator used in Find dialog in ArcMap.<ResourceItems><esri:GeocodeResourceItem ShowAllCandidates="False" MinCandidateScore="10" MinMatchScore="60" Definition="&lt;Definition DataSourceDefinition=&quot;<a href="http://mendota/arcgis/services&quot" target="_blank">http://mendota/arcgis/services"</a>; DataSourceType=&quot;ArcGIS Server Internet&quot; Identity=&quot;&quot; ResourceDefinition=&quot;New_Address_Locator&quot; DataSourceShared=&quot;True&quot; /&gt;" Name="New_Address_Locator" /></ResourceItems>The MinCandidateScore and MinMatchScore in the web app should refer to what the locator is set. The problem will be addressed in the future release.
