Architecture

Hi,Currently in the process of setting up a distributed install of FME Server 2019.2.3.1 (Build 19823). In its current state a load balancer points to one of two webservers and both web servers point to one FME Server. (second server isn't setup yet) The webservers are ISS and are using ARR to pass calls through to tomcat. IIS is configured with a wild card certificate, as is tomcat, so it is HTTPS all the way through to FME Server.  The redirects work fine, we are able to view logs, change settings ect both within the internal and external networks.The issue that we're having is that when the Service Hosts are set to the external url we are unable to submit jobs. no log files, nothing When we change the Service Hosts to the machine host name, we are able to submit jobs when accessed from the internal network but not from the external network.Looking at the network traffic this is the error that tomcat is returning We have tried a number of things:Certificate is setup as per me

I want to jazz up my server app a bit. Where is the file on disk? Can I use CSS/javascript? I have some great ideas for this. Thanks! Tyson

HI !If you haven't heard, the next generation of consoles, Microsoft’s Xbox Series X and Sony’s PlayStation 5, will support Unreal Engine platform. SourceMaybe you're seeing me coming... because as you know, FME does support Unreal Engine. SourceDo you think that it could be hypothetically possible to push data on those consoles with FME and navigate into it with consoles controllers?I like to dream...

From FME Rest API getting an error as "No token was found for user id XXXXX". Latest created a service account to execute jobs from FME Server. The same service account is working on another FME server, the same service account only using in new FME server. Please advice

Howdy, We're looking to upgrade our instances of FME Server. Our licensing uses the new model (web page portal, not FlexLM). The page has the serial # for the FME Server license but doesn't denote for what versions it will host. How do we determine this? Thank-You, Laramie

Hi,I created my first ever FME Server app yesterday and when I ran it the first few times, everything was fine.However, for an un-related reason, I changed the permissions (I added a new role with 'Can Run' permissions) to the repository that the workspace which is used in the FME Server App, is sitting in, and then following this the app no longer works. When I go to the app URL now I get a message saying ' Repository "XXX" doesn't exist or you do not have permission to Read or Run from it '.I don't understand why I am getting this message as the repository definitely still exists and I actually added more permissions to it rather than removing permissions.Anyone experienced this before?I am using FME Server 2019.1Thanks

We recently added an FME Server engine to run on a machine (#2) separate from our existing FME Server (#1), in order to be able to run some workspaces closer to the data source they read to and write from.After installing FME Server on the new machine (#2) and "registering" that engine with machine #1, I am able to see it listed under "Engines & Licensing" in the admin console on machine #1. So far so good.Next, I created a new queue and a new respository for workspaces I would like to run on the new engine. Next, when I publish a workbench to that repo and try to run it, it will show up as 'Queued' but never execute. It will just stay in "Queued" mode.What am I missing?

Hi FME gurus, My IT department scanned through our FME Server IP and found some (high) vulnerabilities. The security officer asks me to upgrade from current version to the desired versions for several components:component versionApache Tomcat9.0.24 -> 9.0.31Angular.js->1.7.9. or higherjQuery->3.4.1.Yepnope.jsEnd of life -> …Bootstrap3.3.7 -> 4.3.1FYI: I upgraded three weeks ago to FME Server 2020.0.0.1-Build 20202 - win64 with an express installation on the same virtual machine. Is the choice for the current versions substantiated? Is there an easy way on the FME Server Virtual Machine to upgrade these versions with few lines of code through CMD?  Kind regards, Jan

Hi,I'm troubleshooting an error I'm getting back from an HTPCaller response and would like to view the transactions in Fiddler. I am having trouble routing the traffic through the Fiddler proxy though. Does anyone see what I'm missing?FME Settings:Fiddler Settings:I also installed and trusted the Fiddler root certificate and added loopback exemptions for the running AppContainers.Results from the reject port of HTTPCaller:(ps1) I should add that the HTTPCaller is using NTLM authentication in case that matters. I think the the FME Proxy settings should be fine with no auth, as none is set on the proxy itself (Fiddler), but have also tried with credentials in case they were passing through to the caller.Thanks!Corey

Hi all.Our IT department has recently moved our mail system to Office365, and so all the emails sent from FME must now use a new endpoint and credentials.I've tried to run a super simple workspace, and it fails: Emailer_Søgeord: <class 'ssl.SSLError'>: [SSL: WRONG_VERSION_NUMBER] wrong version number (_ssl.c:1076)Our previous setup didn't use SSL, but the new one does. But apparently FME cannot handle it ?The only items changed are: host, port, encryption (from None to SSL), and sender's username and password.Using FME 2020.0 and Python 3.7+, and I have upgraded the Emailer transformer from 2017 to the latest.Please advice. Cheers.

Hi folks,I have a question of a customer :We are preparing the FME version upgrade for the coming weeks / months.In this context we ask ourselves the question of how to obtain a new license file for the new license server.Is it possible that the two versions coexist during the tests and the final changeover?

Hi - I wanted to find out if a trial license will be lost if FME Server is upgraded? Is an uninstall/re-install and then restore config backup.Will this loose the trial license? If so - how does one continue the trial?e.g. FME Server 2020 installed and wanted to upgrade to 2020.0.01 which I see was just released.Thanks

Was previously running Windows 10 Pro build version 1809, until yesterday when Windows decided to update me from build version 1809 to build version 1903. This update seemingly has deleted FME Desktop application, though the other FME application such as Data Inspector and Quick Translator are still present.I launched FME Licensing Assistant 2018.1 and tried to enter in my Home Use License serial number into the Single-Fixed-License field. But it returned this error.""Invalid trial activation codeThis trial activation code has already been used to generate a license. If you wish to obtain a new trial activation code, please visit www.safe.com/trial."" The license is valid for another two months. So my license isn't expired either. I also tried pointing the FME Licensing Assistant 2018.1 to C:\\ProgramData\\Safe Software\\FME\\Licenses since the license file still exists. That returned "License not valid on this computer" So I'm at a total loss, any

Hello, I have fme server and and engines on two different machines in a distributed environment. I am trying to query the underlying postgres database directly through toad datapoint.
