I love the new JSONToFeature_conversion tool that was just released at 10.2
Works great when running it from ArcGIS Desktop, but not from ArcGIS Server... Here is a simple script and output. I would rather pass in the RAW JSON data rather than store it to a file so the script accepts basic text (string param type) and creates the JSON file, stores the text and runs the tool.
Here is a real simple JSON input:
{"features": [{"geometry": {"y": 35.748388281000075, "x": -114.85761096699997}, "attributes": {"SITENAME": "MYSITE", "OBJECTID": 1}}], "fieldAliases": {"SITENAME": "SITENAME", "OBJECTID": "OBJECTID"}, "fields": [{"alias": "OBJECTID", "type": "esriFieldTypeOID", "name": "OBJECTID"}, {"alias": "SITENAME", "length": 70, "type": "esriFieldTypeString", "name": "SITENAME"}], "displayFieldName": "SITENAME", "spatialReference": {"wkid": 4269, "latestWkid": 4269}, "geometryType": "esriGeometryPoint"}
If you run this from desktop then here is the result:
but publish to ArcServer succeeds and when trying to run it fails to create the feature class...
And here is the content in the server logs:

Any help is greatly appreciated.. I've tinkered with this for a few days with no success. Tried changing the path of the FGDB to a custom location (not the arcpy environment workspaces) with no luck. Made sure the service account has at least modify permissions to the output locations. I can run these just from desktop.
