000968 : The symbol layer does not match the input layer.

Description

You see this error message when the layer parameters each support different types of data.

Solution

The symbol layer must be the same type as the input layer: feature layer, raster layer, network analysis layer, or TIN layer. For feature layers, the feature type and geometry type must also match. For network analysis layers, the solver type must match. For example, you cannot apply symbology from a service area layer to a route layer.
