Bug
When querying a map service layer and calling output statistics for a field, the query fails and returns the error, "Unable to complete operation" if the ‘onStatisticField’ parameter references the Oracle ‘SHAPE.LEN’ field for a polyline service layer. The server logs display "Geodatabase error: Attribute column not found[ORA-00904: "SHAPE"."LEN": invalid identifier ]" or "General geodatabase error occurred."

Workaround
1) Create a new field of Double data type, and use the Field Calculator to copy over the shape length values from 'SHAPE.LEN'. Statistics can then be called for this user-generated field rather than the geometry length field. 2) Place the data in the Sequential Query Language (SQL) Server to call on the 'Shape.STLength()' field successfully.Steps to Reproduce
