If you implemented logic that automates the execution of these utilities, you need to update your scripts to remove the Python dependencies. The following are examples:
- <ArcGIS Server installation location>/arcgis/server/tools/python
- The .py extension when referring to the name of the command line utility
See the following example for correct usage:
<ArcGIS Server installation location>/arcgis/server/tools/admin/createservice -u admin -p admin -s http://gisserver.domain.com:6080 -f /opt/data/Yellowstone/Yellowstone.sd -n Yellowstone
The following example creates a service named San Diego in the folder RegionalPlanning:
<ArcGIS Server installation location>/arcgis/server/tools/admin/createservice -u admin -p admin -s http://gisserver.domain.com:6080 -f /opt/data/SanDiego/SanDiego.sd -F RegionalPlanning -n SanDiego
