Bug
If the final output of a geoprocessing service is a feature layer and the 'View results with a Map Service' option is enabled, the output of the task is the original input dataset.

Additional Information
This is due to the fact that a feature layer cannot be published as a map service. If one were to run a geoprocessing tool in ArcMap whose output is a feature layer, add the result to the map, remove the input dataset from the map and then attempt to publish, there will be an error prior to publishing that states "a selection layer cannot be published." When this same workflow is performed within a geoprocessing service and the result is viewed as a map service it succeeds, but due to the fact that feature layers cannot become map services, the original input dataset is displayed as the output viewed as a map service. This is a workflow limitation.Workaround
- Set the output of the model/script to be a feature class instead of a feature layer. Or - Disable the 'View results with a Map Service' option.Steps to Reproduce
