I run FME Server and created a workspace yesterday to process OS AddressBase csv files. I kicked the process off yesterday and left it running when I went home.

 

 

This morning when I came in my PC had rebooted (and lost the connection to the Server). I logged back on to the Server and started FME. I opened my Address workspace to see how it had got on - the workspace was blank - no transformers, no readers, no nuffink.

 

 

The folder where my Workspace was saved contains 3 files ...

 

 

(a) the Workspace fmw which still has everything in it (if you open in Notepad),

 

 

(b) the log from yesterday which showed the process ran OK and finished after an hour.

 

 

(c) a recover file which contains

 

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?>

 

<RECOVERY_FILE HWND="65876" COMPUTER_NAME="GISBUILD" USER_NAME="mitcheli$">

 

  <UNDO_STATE FILE="C:\\Users\\MITCHE~1\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\2\\wb_recovery_1387380016793_5468"/>

 

</RECOVERY_FILE>

 

 

have i done summat wrong?

 

 

any ideas how i get my workspace back?

 

 

cheers

Hi Ian,

 

 

Try removing the recovery file from the ws location and opening the ws.

 

otherwise copy paste in into a new empty text file and save with a new name.
