How can I bypass the problem that appears to me while trying to migrate from windows server 2012​ to 2016 R2, I have an error "Too long Path" , how can just skip this? I use Robocopy​

I am using the SpatialRelator for populating a list of adjacent polygons for specific polygons of a geojson polygon layer. I tried the "Requestor Intersects Supplier" and "Requestor Touches Supplier" predicates but they also include those polygons touching at only one point. I only want those sharing a line, so I have a ListElementFilter taking only the following relationship masks: FF2F11212 and FF2F1F212. The problem is that the process is much slower when adding that custom transformer. It is even worse when I use the "FF2F11212 FF2F1F212" value in an attribute in the "spatial predicates to test" field. Can you think of a more performant way to obtain the adjacent polygons into a list?Thanks!Olivier

Hi there,I have some features in the NAD83 CSRS datum and while things run on FME Desktop, it fails on FME Server when there is reprojection:Reprojector: Reproject: Could not reproject the geometry of the preceding feature: CS-Map Reprojector: Unable to load grid file for 'NAD83_to_CSRS' | CS-Map Reprojector: This grid may either be available at the government agency applicable to the geographical area or in the FME Reprojection Grid Add-on at: | http://www.safe.com/support/support-resources/fme-downloads/ or http://www.safe.com/support/support-resources/fme-downloads/beta/ | CS-MAP Reprojector: Please visit following link for more information on obtaining Canadian grid files: 

We will be migrating a server holding FME(Safe) licenses to a new Domain. Everything else on the server will remain the same, Name-IP-Hardware-Disc ID. The only thing to change will be the domain the server sits in. Will this change affect the licenses?

I have built a model, for making custome report in fmes html creator. I have added custom htmltopdf transformer as described in protocol, but not getting pdf. Also no errors showed up in the log. Do i have to change some transformer parameters?  Thanks in advance for the help.

Since there is a limit on download I need to add a search envelope on my WFS and WMS import. I got this working in 2 ways: using the search envelope in the parameters of the reader or the XML filter expression. "<Filter>  <BBOX>   <ValueReference>Geometry</ValueReference>   <Envelope srsName="urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::31370">     <lowerCorner>159221.09606242698 220934.16757763177</lowerCorner>     <upperCorner>160221.09606242698 221934.16757763177</upperCorner>   </Envelope>  </BBOX></Filter>" My question is how I can use calculated coordinates as an input for this reader. Since the coordinates of the bounding box will change.(I know it has something to do with user-parameters but I can't get any number in the expression or parameter of the search envelope.) Thanks

Hi,I have installed a Fault tolerant FME Server 2019.2. There are two Core servers and 4 engine servers with one engine each, no engines on the core servers. A third party load balancer take care of the active/passive routing to the core machines. When I look at the Deployment Status in the webUI, all 4 engines are tied to the engine manager on the active core host. The issue appears if I stop the FME Server services on the active core host to test the active/passive behaviour. When the active core is down there are no engines left and the only online core have taken over the Job routing. If I send jobs to the FME Server all end up in the queue. When I start the services again the engines show up again and look like they are tied to the now following engine manager.This should not be the case. The engines shuld swich to the active core when the first one is down. This behaviour appeared after an upgrade (uninstall/install) from 2019.0 to 2019.2. Before the upgra

  Hello all, I am taking the Basic Course in Safe website and I am really enjoying using this fantastic software. I am doing the exercise called Residential Garbage Collection Zones and I do not understand the SpatialSorter Step (This is the link). The ExpressionEvaluator takes the TotalResident attribute for each feature and divides it by 5 (rounding the result), creating an extra attribute called GroupSize where each value is 109. The SpatialSorter, group the points in spatial proximity and create an extra attribute called GroupId.  What I do not understand is how the 109 value (which is the attribute GrupSize) is used to create the GruoupId. What the calculation the SpatialSorter is

After upgrading ArcGIS from 10.7 to 10.8.1, we no longer can see FME Extension for ArcGIS in the Integration Console as an option. We are on FME2019, build 19617.  We have tried installing/reinstalling both ESRI and FME in different orders, but with no luck. Both are 32-bit installations. Is this extension in 2019 supported by 10.8.1, or would we need to upgrade to FME2020?

Hi, this is not the kind of question one wants to ask, since it seems almost unethical to demolish a really lovely product, but has anyone ever had any ideas on a stresstest for FME Server? A workspace that eats every bit of memory on a 64bit system, or that fires new jobs every milisecond, or poking around diffent file contents on the harddisk? Put the FME Server postgres database under a ddos attack? Or anything else that tries to - respectfully said - 'break it down'?

Hello everyone! My company is looking into utilizing SAFE's Augmented Reality tools! We are currently testing the application and are working on becoming familiar with the process at hand. I am attempting to create a "mock" workflow using Mr. Dmitri Bagh's 'City of Coaquitlam' model as my basis. I created a small google document that will show a single buried cable that I generated in ArcMap. However, I keep failing at the end of the workflow. Making it to the 'bufferer' tool before the 3D forcer and extruder. We will want to look at larger datasets in the future, and I figured this workflow may be the best to accommodate. I have generated smaller AR models with using the methods found in the '3D Buffered Pipeline' examples. But struggle to generate large scale systems. In that workflow, I am also unable to anchor the gas pipe sample, and scale to an appropriate size/show at ground level.  I will attach my workspaces. Would

Hello, I am trying to find some resources on creating hyperlinks, but I've yet to find anything helpful. I have an input csv with URLs to a corporate sharepoint site that I'd like to convert into clickable text, then write out to File Geodatabase. Can you provide me with some guidance please?

Hi all,I am wondering can FME find a way to list all feature classes used in my ArcGIS Pro map file? If not can it do it with ArcGIS Desktop files i.e. .mxd? I am struggling to find a way to do this without possibly Python

My local Esri reseller in The Netherlands makes available specific basemaps for its dutch users. Their extent, content and coordinate system have been customized as such. But, more importantly, they are supplied from a different URL than the world basemaps by Esri Inc.The latter are hosted from services.arcgis.com, but the ones I would like to use as a background map are hosted from services.arcgis.nl.The Background Map dialog allows me to either configure a standard web map service, like ArcGIS Online (in this case: arcgis.com). The best choice here, I should think, is "Others".But then the dialog acts like a Reader configuration and I can only choose an ArcGIS feature service, which is not the right one for the basemaps.So, I tried the option "Esri ArcGIS Online (AGOL) Map Service" for the source, and filling in the URL in the "Map List" textbox:

What are the versions for the third party components used in FME Server? Database Server? Application Server?

Hello,By default, the location of FME temporary files in the system temporary directory is on some Windows versions defaults to C:\\temp or under the user local temp directory (i.e. C:\\Users\\mark\\AppData\\Local\\Temp). There is a way to change the location of temp files using these methods : https://community.safe.com/s/article/fme-temp-environment-variableThe problem is we need administrator rights to make these manipulations. FME users doesn't have always the administration rights. In my case, setting the location right directly from the WorkBench (in the FME options menu for exemple) would be very helpful : Do you think it can be a good idea? Is there any project to ease the setting of FME Temp files in a future version of FME?Thank a lotRonan Jarno 

I was wondering if anyone tried/experimented with running FME Server on Raspberry Pi 3. I would greatly appreciate any feedback on this question.Thank you,Alexander

Trying to connect a Smallworld db for the first time. When I hit on the ... next to "Table List" then it keeps loading.Are there settings I should check and can I find some logging somewhere?

Hi guys, I have put together a FME list which generated I have 1000 feature classes after I located 100 geodatabases. These 100 geodatabases are all in one folder.  I am just wondering if there is a easy way to clip this data to one standard. So clipper is one file which i want all 1000 feature classes to clip to. Is there a quick and easy way to clip all 1000 feature classes and then output to exactly same featureclass and geodatabase name? I can do this by selecting schema and then clipping it but struggling to ensure the output is the same as the input in terms of geodatabase name/featureclass name and fields..

Hi all, I have an issue in getting the certificate to work for HTTPS URL of FME Server. I have used this URL as reference: https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Server_Documentation/AdminGuide/configuring_for_https.htm I did use these steps to create Keystore:• Open a command prompt as administrator and navigate to the Java bin directory (C:\\Program Files\\FMEServer\\Utilities\\jre\\bin )• Run the following command to create a new keystore file:keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA -keystore tomcat.keystore• After running the previous command, you are prompted to set a password for the new keystore and specify the server domain name (for example, myserver.mydomain (My FME Server) as your first

Hello, I would greatly appreciate if someone could help me conceptualize how I might accomplish this task. I would like to create a CSV that contains every feature in all of the feature classes in a Geodatabase. All of the feature classes have a differing schema, but I would like each one to display in the CSV as: ID / NORTHING / EASTING / ELEVATION / FEATURE_CLASS_NAME / ALL ATTRIBUTES Any input is greatly appreciated.Thanks!

I'm sure this is answered somewhere but I can't seem to find it. I'm having issues finishing up the AD Connector. I've created a search account and verified it's credentials and began the basic setup for the connector. We have Basic authentication and the correct port is being used, but when we test the connection it says "Unable to authenticate with directory server with given credentials (49)". If I look at the logs it says it successfully establishes a connection with our DC but it fails to authenticate with out search account. Is there something painfully obvious I'm missing (and that I can't find searching these forums)?

The question is in the title.Which is the best linux distribution recommanded for FME applications?I heard good things about Debian and OpenSuse. What is your opinion about that?
