When I try to access our ArcGIS Server through the "ArcGISMapServerImageryProvider", I get the following error: An error occurred in "ArcGisMapServerImageryProvider": An error occurred while accessing [//www.gis.stadt-zuerich.ch/maps/services/wms/WMS-ZH-STZH-OGD/MapServer](https://www.gis.stadt-zuerich.ch/maps/services/wms/WMS-ZH-STZH-OGD/MapServer). If I try the WMS interface using this config:     addAdditionalLayerOption(             ‘United States GOES Infrared’,             new Cesium.WebMapServiceImageryProvider({                 url : ‘[http://www.gis.stadt-zuerich.ch/maps/services/wms/WMS-ZH-STZH-OGD/MapServer/WMSServer?’](http://www.gis.stadt-zuerich.ch/maps/services/wms/WMS-ZH-STZH-OGD/MapServer/WMSServer?'),                 layers : ‘1’,                 proxy : new Cesium.DefaultProxy(’/proxy/’)             })); I Get An error occurred in "WebMapServiceImageryProvider": Failed to obtain image tile X: 1 Y: 0 Level: 1. I can sucessfully get a WMS tile in the browser by typing in the following URL: [http://www.gis.stadt-zuerich.ch/maps/services/wms/WMS-ZH-STZH-OGD/MapServer/WMSServer?VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetMap&CRS=EPSG:4326&Styles=&FORMAT=image/png&BGCOLOR=0xFFFFFF&TRANSPARENT=FALSE&bbox=47.315492730374444,8.443821782566665,47.43963707749998,8.631776103472221&WIDTH=800&HEIGHT=800&Layers=Stadtplan](http://www.gis.stadt-zuerich.ch/maps/services/wms/WMS-ZH-STZH-OGD/MapServer/WMSServer?VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetMap&CRS=EPSG:4326&Styles=&FORMAT=image/png&BGCOLOR=0xFFFFFF&TRANSPARENT=FALSE&bbox=47.315492730374444,8.443821782566665,47.43963707749998,8.631776103472221&WIDTH=800&HEIGHT=800&Layers=Stadtplan) what am I doing wrong? Im using the sandbox > **[Cesium Sandcastle](https://sandcastle.cesium.com/index.html?src=Imagery%20Layers%20Manipulation.html&label=Showcases)** > > The Cesium Sandcastle provides an interactive environment for testing Cesium code.

The WebMapServiceImageryProvider works with the following code snippet: addAdditionalLayerOption(             ‘Zurich WMS’,             new Cesium.WebMapServiceImageryProvider({                 url : '[http://www.gis.stadt-zuerich.ch/maps/services/wms/WMS-ZH-STZH-OGD/MapServer/WMSServer?’](http://www.gis.stadt-zuerich.ch/maps/services/wms/WMS-ZH-STZH-OGD/MapServer/WMSServer?'),                 layers : ‘Stadtplan’,                 parameters: {         transparent: ‘true’,         format: ‘image/png’,         crs: ‘EPSG:4326’       }             })); For what concerns the ARCGIS service, are you sure to use the ARCGIS REST API? > **[Imagery Layers Tutorial | cesium.com](https://cesium.com/blog/2013/01/04/cesium-imagery-layers-tutorial/)** > > We’ve moved the content of this tutorial to the new documentation section of the site, here.

thanks for the snippet! unfortunately, I still get An error occurred in “WebMapServiceImageryProvider”: Failed to obtain image tile X: 0 Y: 0 Level: 0. when I insert your snippet into the layers-manipulation example… as for the AGS: yes, it’s the rest API ---

If I set the proxy I get some errors and I don't visualize the map, but if I enable the Allow-Control-Allow-Origin: \* extension in the browser... it works well...no error logs ---

Thanks! This solved it for me - do I have to change anything on the AGS-Webserverside (CORS), so that the chrome extension is not needed anymore? Thanks again! ---

I'm not expert with AGS, but maybe this could help... [https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/jssamples/exp\_cors\_buffer.html](https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/jssamples/exp_cors_buffer.html)
