FME server 2022.2.6 installed, SSL and SSO SAML deployed all successful. Could not read write to sde MS SQL DB . Installed ArcGIS Server , registered data from sde , still could not connect to sde. FME server still works . Installed ArcGIS Webadaptor

Installing ArcGIS Web adaptor IIS broke the Tomcat Web UI to FME server. Checked the Tomcat xml files to enable SSL 443 and SAML. All the config seems to be in place. "Unfortunately a backup or snapshot of the VM was not taken ahead of time." Anyone know how to get the UI back running? Pretty dumb mistake so there is not much dialog. But I have gone through setting up SSL with CA Cert and SAML.

Not sure what url to use when updating an ArcGIS Online Web Connection - step not shown in help

How to Create an ArcGIS Online Web Connection (OAuth 2.0) (safe.com) I followed the document above. However, when trying to add the redirect url to the app in ArcGIS Online, it now requires a "url" parameter that is not mentioned in the documentation. I'm not sure what to put there.

How can I manage single fixed licence codes?

I managed a few users for my work and we have a few fixed licence codes under our EULA. Some of these have been reused and to test this process I activated two under my own install of 2022.2. I now have two codes listed under my install and I don't really need either, and there seems to be no way of removing them. I have followed other posts about location the directory where these are stored but there are no files located.  How are these managed? I can see they are re-usable but do they get automatically get removed from the previous machine? Should I uninstall before these get activated elsewhere? Many thanks for any help

BulkAttributeRenamer dynamically rename attributes

I have the following problem: I have a csv file with multiple columns. I have a user parameter and i want to rename the columns according to this user parameter. Even though the "Text To Find" parameter of my BulkAttributeRenamer gets updated correctly the Renamer doesn't rename the correct column but renames the previously set column and deletes the values in the newly set column (see pictures). The BulkAttributeRenamer only renames the new column correctly if I:   - open the BulkAttributeRenamer properties   - replace "Text To Find" Parameter with something arbitrary    - close the BulkAttributeRenamer by clicking "Ok"   - open the BulkAttributeRenamer properties again   - set the "Text To Find" parameter back to my user parameter   - close the BulkAttributeRenamer by clicking "Ok"  I'm using FME Desktop 2020.2.3.0 on Windows 10Maybe someone can tell me if this is a bug or if I'm just overlooking something.  Many thanks i

HTTPS with PFX Connection Refused

I am referencing this article: https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Server_Documentation/AdminGuide/configuring_for_https.htm?Highlight=ssl I am on Windows trying to implement using a PFX and password. I am on step 6b and running into an issue. I try to go to https://localhost/ and get "ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED". It doesn't seem to let me see/download the cert at all. Any ideas? I have checked and double-checked the configurations changes including the path to the PFX and the password.

Lookup a file which contains the column list in order to check the value of columns in a dataset

Hello, everyone! I'm new to FME and seeking some guidance. I have a dataset with numerous columns, and I need to check the values of specific Boolean columns. While I'm aware of using the Tester transformer, it becomes cumbersome to manually create multiple OR and IF statements for each column I want to check. I'm wondering if there's a way to define the columns I want to check in a separate file and have a transformer read that file to use those columns for checking. This would greatly simplify my workflow and make my life much easier. If anyone can advise me on how to achieve this or suggest a better approach, I'd greatly appreciate it! Thank you!

I have 2 Agol web connections that have been working for about a year with no problems. They are set up using Oath 2 web apps. Recently one of them stopped getting refresh tokens and need to be re-authenticated every 2-3 hours.

I have debug logs and found that in the one that has stopped working the request is incomplete:GET /sharing/rest/portals/self?f=jsonThe request in the other add the token:GET /sharing/rest/portals/self?f=json&token=.....Trying to determine if this is a problem on the AGOL side or FME side. Any ideas would be appreciated!Also having the same issue on Desktop.

Deploying FME Flow 2023 with a custom configuration database name

Hi,I want to upgrade our FME server 2022 deployment to Flow 2023. We have a three tiered deployment:VM with Core and WebVM with 2 enginesSQL Server with fmeserver configuration databaseNetwork share with configuration directoriesI want to deploy Flow 2023 to a new set of VMs and then cut our DNS over once the deployment is complete, so there is no outage time. However, the point of failure is the database. If I remove it to deploy the 2023 Flow db then the 2022 FME server will stop working.So, can I deploy the new FME Flow with a custom database name - say fmeflow2023? Or is there another way of solving this that I'm not aware of? Thanks,Marc

How To Reset FME File Association for all users?

Hi All We've recently deployed FME 2021.2.0.1 Desktop (64-bit) to a new server environment shared by many users.After some time we realized that this installation has somehow changed File association for JPG to associate with FME Data Inspector. This is unintended and very undesirable. What's the best way to reset the JPG File association to whichever program it was prior to the FME Desktop install? If I change this setting manually through Windows options (assuming I get local administrator rights), does this get propagated to all user profiles? Also we are running a Citrix server environment. Any help is much appreciatedThanks!

FME Desktop installation resets file extension defaults.

When I install a new version of Desktop on my (Windows) machine, all my file extension defaults are reset. (I have to choose which software I want to open a .xlsx file when selected in File Explorer, again.)  I think this is recent behavior? Do I miss a setting during installation? Can it be made undone?
