Bug

In ArcGIS Pro, the Buffer geoprocessing tool running as a local geoprocessing service in Local Server fails when the 'Input Features' option is selected from the map layer instead of the File Explorer dialog box.

Additional Information

This behavior occurs in ArcGIS Pro as designed. A map layer in ArcGIS Pro serves as a string reference to a feature class from a geodatabase, rather than the file path to the feature class itself. As a result, the input feature layer becomes the string as opposed to the actual feature layer. ArcGIS Pro is designed to source the reference and use the source's file path, but does not convert the string map layer name to that file path. Thus, Local Server is given an invalid input on loading the affected geoprocessing package (GPKX) file. The solution is to use the File Explorer dialog box (or paste in the source feature class' file path) instead of using the map layer as input.

Workaround

Select the intended feature class from ArcGIS Pro's File Explorer dialog box or paste in the feature class' source file path.
