Description

ESRIĀ® announces ArcSDE 9.3.1 SP1 SQL Server Raster Catalog and Raster Field Patch. This patch addresses the raster catalog display and raster field identify problem for SQL Server following the install of 9.3.1 sp1. We recommend that all who store raster catalogs or raster fields in ArcSDE for SQL Server download and install this Patch at their earliest convenience to ensure the highest quality experience when working with ArcSDE 9.3.1 Service Pack 1. It deals specifically with the issues listed below under Issues Addressed with this Patch.

 

Issues Addressed with this Patch

  • NIM052174 - Raster Catalogs and Feature Classes with raster fields stored in ArcSDE for SQL Server do not display after applying the 9.3.1 Service Pack 1.

    Description: The pixel data of a raster catalog stored in ArcSDE for SQL Server 9.3.1 sp1 does not display. Performing an identify operation on a feature of a feature class that has a raster field stored in ArcSDE for SQL Server 9.3.1 sp1 will not return any results. If you use a direct connection from ArcGIS to an ArcSDE SQL Server instance, the problem will occur if Service Pack 1 has been applied to ArcGIS 9.3.1. If you connect to an ArcSDE for SQL Server application server, the problem will occur if you apply Service Pack 1 to ArcSDE for SQL Server 9.3.1.

    • sdesqlsrvr93.dll
