Architecture

We are running FME Server (2015.1.0.2 - Build 15482 - win32). Engines and licenses seem to work properly, jobs can be started and are processed by FME Server. Since we want to downsize the number of engines used, we try to follow procedure as described under "FME Server Web User Interface > Using the Interface > Configuring the Number of FME Engines to Start" which states: "Change the Engine Count field to the desired number of engines, and click Change Number of Engines"However, when we log in using an account that has superuser privilege, the list of Available Engines is there and shows 2 engines, but there is no "Engine Count" field nor "Change Number of Engines" button. Any ideas how to fix this?

I'm having trouble with the backupconfiguration task, as it doesn't run correctly. I've configured my FME Server for HTTPS and the backupconfiguration log file is still showing the unsecure url. How do i fix this?

Hello,since a few weeks I'm not able anymore to publish workbenches on FME Server.The error message is: Login failed (Proxy Error) - Ensure that proxy configuration is correct, and that the proxy is accessbile. The FME Server URL, Username and Password are definitly correct. Other users can connect to it from other computers. In the past I could up- and download too, but since a few weeks the error message occurs. My computer hasn't changed. I can access the FME Server via Browser with the URL.How can I solve this issue?ThanksLana

We are using FME server 2017.0. I am following this article https://s3.amazonaws.com/gitbook/Server-Admin-2017/ServerAdmin4Scalability/4.03.ChangingDatabaseProviderForFMEServerDatabase.html, chapeter 4 exercise 2 to change the FME database provider – from the default to, – not to a PostgreSQL, but to an Oracle12c database. I ran the Oracle scripts to create a FMESERVER user and installed the FME objects. After I changed the fmeCommonConfig.txt (see below) and restarted the FME server, I can not login the web UI using my previous logins. I can login admin/admin, but the contents are pretty much blank. I have no option to import the previously exported fsconfig file. I have to restore the original fmeCommonConfig.txt to go back the working FME server. Feel like I missed something here.fmeCommonConfig

Hi,i tried to change the Python Interpreter from my fresh FME Server 2017, with a 60 day Trial license, to use the ArcGIS Python Interpreter and was getting following error: Any suggestions how to handle this problem?

Hi Safe,FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_ReadersWriters autocad_od/autocadI'm very annoyed that there is no mention that the Autodesk AutoCAD Map 3D Object Data Reader/Writerwas removed in 32-bit (only available in 64-bit). Not even in the reader documentation itselfI only came across this issue when i tried to run my scripts on Server/Desktop 2017 - everything failedThis is fundamental change to how FME Desktop/Server works, I can accept change, but at least we would like to do a risk assessment when we upgraded to FME Server from 32-bit 2016 to 32-bit 2017.We now have to delay upgrading to 2017 Server until all scripts has been tested to work on 64-bitPlease add to Reader/Writer documentation the 32-bit Yes, 64-bit YesRudy (Iron-Fist)

Hello,  We have a number of FME Server Subscriptions setup which have just stopped working after a certain period. If you create another subscription with the same details then it works fine. They are all email subscriptions.  I've checked the log file and I can't see anything wrong with it... does anyone know what might be causing it or how I can monitor it?  Thank you,  Peter.

Hello,I am using FME Server 2016.1 and I need to reference a folder named "farms:. I have added that into the config file and it appears in my resources list, no problem. However, the issue I am having is that I cannot run any workspace when I select the file for processing. If the files are put in other resources like data/myfiles, there is no issue. Below is the configuration I have added into the fmeserverconfig.txt file:SHAREDRESOURCE_TYPE_7=FILESHAREDRESOURCE_NAME_7=riversSHAREDRESOURCE_DISPLAYNAME_7=riversSHAREDRESOURCE_DESCRIPTION_7=This shared resource is for the riversSHAREDRESOURCE_ISMIGRATABLE_7=falseSHAREDRESOURCE_DIR_7=C:/ProgramData/Safe Software/FME Server///resources/data/water/rivers/SHAREDRESOURCE_SECURITY_DEFAULT_ROLES_7=fmeadmin   The error I get on FME Server is:statusMessage Undefined macro `rivers' dereferenced in file `rivers\\shape2shape\\rivers2tab.fmw'

Hi, it would be good if a Safer with intimate knowledge of the Docker version of FME Server could help out with this question:https://knowledge.safe.com/questions/47377/database-connection-version-control.html

I know that you can route a workspace in a schedule to use a specific engine, and I know that you can append "tm_tag=fast" to the end of a URL to do the same, but how do you specify a tag when the user runs a workspace in the Run dialog page? I can't expect the user to understand that they have to add "tm_tag=fast" to the URL, they just run the workspace.Thanks

Fme server 2016I developed ONE fme file which reads from csv file and writes to csv. I Published this fmw to fme server. If I use Fme server’s user web interface it asks me to upload the csv file and loading to temporary folder and fme server knows this path. its working good.I am using my own web page(image attached) and calling fme server’s URL inside my web application.But when I run this fmw, fme cannot locate the source dataset(csv) in the server. How/ Where can I upload/keep my source csv file in the server ?, So that fme server can locate this filepath when called thru fme server’s url. I copied csv to server path and I redirected my source dataset to this uploaded file, it is not locating and gives error.Can you Please tell me how can I achieve this?

Every time I open Esri ArcCatalog, I noticed that it is pulling an FME License from my floating license pool - this is quickly using up all available licenses!

The issue is when I try to run any workspace through FME server they get this error: “Repository does not exit”.I tried the below steps to solve this issue but it’s still not working:Restart FME services.Restart server.Publish the workbench and create new folder in repository.This issue appeared after windows security patch was updated.Please note that the schedule is working fine but if we try to run the workbench manually it gives the error.In attached file you will find the errors. Please advise.

It is my understanding that only one of the desktop versions can be licensed at a time.So how can I stop the license activation of FME desktop 32bit so I can switch the license to FME desktop 64bit on my PC?

I have a set of workspaces which I need to run in FME Server, a process which needs to be repeated every few weeks. I have set up a workspace which contains a set of FMEServerJobSubmitter transformers, with 'Wait for Server Job to Complete' set to Yes. This works fine for running on my Desktop, and uses up 1 FME Server Engine to run through the jobs.However, I would like to do the whole process in FME Server, not using up an FME Desktop license. When I run the FMEServerJobSubmitter workspace in FME Sever, 2 engines are used up - one for the workspace runner and another for actually running the jobs. Is there a way around this?Thanks

Hi, I'm encountering problems installing FME 2017.1 64bit desktop (version 02 may 2017). Installation runs almost to the end, but fails with error code 2330 and rollbacks itself.I tried downloading it again, same error occurs. Hope someone can help! Thanks.

I am trying to connect to an FTP via the FTPCaller (downloading a file), however I am having huge issues with the message coming back saying "Couldn't connect to server".I know the following:- I can rule out proxy issues as the HTTP caller works perfectly- On the same machine I can use an FTP client eg WinSCP and connect to the same FTP- On the same machine I can paste the FTPCaller URL I am entering into a browser and again connect to the the site.I am puzzled as to what is going on. I.T say there are no firewall restrictions (proven by WinSCP connecting) or proxy issues (HTTP Caller works OK) so I'm not sure what is going on.Any help would be greatly appreciated.Regards,Luke

What is the process to upgrade FME Server to 2017

Hi, Is there a way, I can force FME workbench to use a Database Edition license rather than an ESRI Edition license, considering I have both versions?

I've just installed FME Server 2016. After restarting the server and running a sample job I would then go to the Jobs page to ensure that it ran successfully. After clicking Manage > Jobs I get the whirling cogwheel then eventually a message on the screen that says: There was a problem communicting with the REST APIThe security pages show a message that says:Sorry, Page not FoundHow can I fix this?

Why is this happening? What can I do to resolve?
