I want to create a high-resolution image from the WMS. If I set the parameters Height and With to 4000 it works well. With the value 5000 I get a time out.

 

"HTTP/FTP transfer error: 'Timeout was reached' "

 

In the WFS-FeatureReader is a parameter, where I can define the timeout. I can't find one in WMS-Reader.

 

I am looking forward to here from you.

Hi @heikeb

If you have already added the reader to the workspace, the timeout parameter for the WFS reader can be accessed within the Navigator pane.

Alternatively, the parameter can be accessed by selecting the Parameters... button when creating the reader.

I hope this helps.


I need the timeout-parameter for the WMS- Featurereader


Unfortunately, there does not appear to be a timeout parameter for the WMS reader.

If you know the exact URL of the WMS, you could try to use the ImageFetcher transformer, which does allow the connection and transfer timeout length to be specified. You will need to georeference the output raster which should be fairly simple as you have the projection and bounds info in the WMS url.

Alternatively, it may be possible to tile the area and send separate requests to the WMS reader to reduce the risk of a timeout occurring. You can then use the RasterMosaicker to mosaic the tiled rasters together.

Would it be possible to get timeout parameter also for WMS, not just WFS?

Hi @kino, Does the workaround suggested by DebbiAtSafe work for you? We currently don't have a timeout parameter in the WMS reader. But if you'd like to see it in future FME, I'd encourage you to post it as a new Idea, and let us know how would this parameter help you in your workflow. Thank you!
