Is it possible to have FME Desktop/Server set ups in windows os and respective floating licenses are configured in Linux.??

Want to build a set up license manager in Linux and FME Desktop and server in windows os. Please let me know is this possbile

Hello list,I have the task to configure my fme 2018 server to provide * a dedicated highspeed queue for fire department tasks* a default queue for all the other work The condition is that the highspeed tasks have to run "immediately" and should never be blocked/delayed/slowed down by workspaces running in the default queue. Is it correct to create two different server queues with separate engines and do the job assignment through different repositories for a) the fire department's workspaces and b) the rest of the pack, or are there other/better mechanisms available. Especially I am interested in the job priority parameter that I can assign to the queues. Best regards - Markus  

After upgrading a Schemamapper transformer from FME 2016 to FME 2018, I get an Connection error from within the Schemamapper (pointing to an Access database) : "Connection does not exist", even though nothing has changed. It is an upgrade problem cause any workflow with that Schemamapper in FME 2016 works without problem The same workflow opened in FME 2018 desktop has a red settings button and the abovementioned error. What to do?

Hi everyone,We're currently running the FME Workbench in an app-v package. As users launch the application through Liquit/Citrix, they first need to select their license (which needs to be checked out/borrowed from the license server). This is perfectly described in the following article: https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_Desktop_Admin_Guide/FMEInstallation/Configuring_FME_Desktop_to_Use_a_Floating_License_3_Server_Redundant.htmThe customer is now asking/requesting if the steps where we select a license and assign it can be removed by automatically selecting the license (as we only have one license, there's no other option available at the moment). This would mean that the workbench would automatically laun

Hello,  we have problem with FME Server - it is unable to open log file, so every job ends with immediate crash after 1 second. The error message is: Unable to open log file `/opt/fmeserver/resources/logs/engine/current/jobs/job_11.log' The folder „jobs“ exists in this location and is empty. FME Server is able to write there - has sufficient rights. The folder „jobs“ was automatically created when the first job was run - time of creation is the same. So if FME Server created this folder, I suppose it has enough rights to write there. The configuration is this: FME Server 2019.1.3 Build 19642 connected to Active Directory with last security patch installed (*.jar file copied in dedicated folder and restart of the server)OS - Linux 64-bit Debian 9.11 FME Server was upgraded from version 2018.1 on the same machine. Before upgrade it was working ok. After the upgrade every workspace cra

Safe Software is planning to drop native support for Ubuntu 16.04 and Debian 9 in FME 2020.0. Ubuntu 18.04 is already supported and Debian 10 support will be added. FME Server for Docker will continue to run on all Linux variants that support Docker.If this change would affect you or your company, please reach out to us.

We have and end customer with 3 FME Desktop licenses;2 FME Professional Editon (Floating licenses)1 FME Databse Edition (Fixed license)In addition they have the add-on Curvefitter for FME (Floating License) FME Database Edition is installed (and licensed) on a server (running scheduled jobs). Is it possible to install(and licence) a FME Professional with Curvefitter on the same server? Or do they have to change license type for Curvefitter from floating to fixed?

As the subject line states… This is a fresh installation of FME Server v 2019.1.2 Build 19630.I enter U: Admin P: Admin and it takes me right back to the login interface.The installation docs online state the following: Confirm that FME Server is available:Log in to the Web User Interface with the username and password you entered during installation.There was no prompt to enter a user name and password during installation. FME Server is installed on a Virtual Machine - Windows 2016 Server Any help would be great

I'm currently preparing to upgrade to FME Server 2019. I'm looking to install the new version in parallel but when attempting to install the new version of FME Server, it results in an error of "Another version of this product is already installed. Installation of this version cannot continue." This error occurs when using a different directory and/or drive.There are a couple of articles I've read, one mentions installing multiple versions of FME Server is possible (https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/796/installing-multiple-versions-of-fme.html), while the administrator guide states uninstall then install (https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Server_Documentation/AdminGuide/Upgrade-in-Place-Same-Machine.htm ).

As I never have migrated FME server before, I'm not sure what to expect / what the best practice is. I have mainly standalone workspaces in server 2016 which are started via the API from an external application. I studied the "Migrating From REST API V2" documentation and understand the changes.What is the correct way to migrate the workspaces? Download them using desktop 2016 and upload them using 2019? I understand there are no guarantees and will check outputs but should this work in general? Or is this a real no go.For desktop workspace migrations I copy - paste all transformers in a new workspace and then upgrade them individually, or just rebuild the entire workspace. But I would not prefer to do that for all server workspaces if not needed.

Bought a new computer and are trying to install my FME again.When I use the original installationfile (fme-desktop-2013-SP2-win-x86.msi) the computer says that the administrator has blocked the installation and I should contact him/her but I am the only one using my computer?How can I get around that, I have win 10 pro 64-bit

Hello,I have just finished to install FME Server (build 19 617).(Installation with our own Oracle db).I can connect to the Web interface, launch workspaces, build automations, create new user, publish workspace, etc. BUT I CANNOT create a new Database Connection (Oracle or geodatabase, etc.). When I tried I get this message : The rest api "/fmerest/v3/namedconnections/connections" get a code 500 in response. I also tried to publish a workspace with a database connection but I get this message : Database connections access failed - FME Server encountered an error and reported the following message.929028:SQL Query SELECT NCID FROM fme_nc_namedconnections WHERE connectionname = ?

I have created a bunch of FME server Apps (FME 2019), and they're highly appreciated. Easy to use and to understand. When used with the right input data it's just fenomenal.However, when something goes wrong (usually faulty indata) there isn't much information about what went wrong. It just says FAILURE. In cases that yielded zero output features. It just says COMPLETED (and does not present the results because there are none).Is it possible (of course it is) to get somewhat a somewhat more verbose response? How do I do it? Is it a notification service? Where do I start? I am at a complete loss. (It was 2 years ago I went to the FME server course and the memory seems to be of non stick material)I just want the server app to respond with something at the app running page. Please save me!

Hi All,In the FME "Desktop Administrator's Guide" there are only instructions regarding Installing a Floating License on Windows / Linux. How to install a Floating License on Mac OSX 64-bit? Thanks in advance 

My FME Server environment has one engine that is 32-bit. The others are 64. I have a workspace configured to run under a queue (Engine 3) that is 32-bit, and consists of FMEServerJobSubmitter transformers, launching workspaces that are required to run as 32-bit, due to format limitations. The FMEServerJobSubmitters are configured with the following parameters:Submit Jobs: In SequenceWait for Jobs to Complete: YesSub-processes are being generated and run under Engine 3, however, while the parent workspace runs as 32-bit, the child processes run (and fail) as 64-bit. This is apparent in the log files based on where the FME_HOME parameter is pointing to. Is there any way to have the sub-processes run as 32-bit, preferably with the same engine? Note:I need to perform further processing once all the child processes have completed, so I am open to other suggestions to notify another application that this has occurred

There is a bug in FME Server 2015 1.3.1. that lets me change the number of engines on the core-server, but not on the attached engine-only server. Default is 2 engines per server, 4 in total. I want 3 engines to run on the core, and 1 on the other server. Is there a way to edit fme-engine config file to force ONLY 1 engine even if there are licenses available?
