Hi,

Using FME Desktop 2022.2.1.0 against FME Server 2022.2.2.

 

Using an HTTPCaller to download a ZIP file (60MB) from a remote host, FME server (Windows 2019) started sending errors from a certain point in time. the workbench in FME Desktop still runs well.

 

Earlier downloads using this HTTPCaller worked fine with same settings in HTTPCaller.

 

imageAttached the error log.

Any ideas?

 

Kind Regards,

Gerro

Hello,

 

Can you reach the URL  'https://api.meldingen.utrecht.nl/signals/v1/private/csv'  from FME Flow (Server) Core host machine in a web browser or in a tool like Postman? If not, then there may be network issue, like a missing or incorrect proxy configuration or firewall rules interfering.

If yes, you might need to import the endpoint's [ 'https://api.meldingen.utrecht.nl/signals/v1/private/csv'] SSL/TLS certificate into Trusted cacerts on the FME machine so that FME Flow trusts it.

Hi Merline, Few checks have been done on our FME server core host: The URL is available through a browser: (no token presented so HTTP 401) [cid:image001.png@01D9E0C3.985BFC30] Certificate from “meldingen.utrecht.nl” has been added to the FME server core host al long time ago: [cid:image002.png@01D9E0C3.985BFC30] [cid:image003.png@01D9E0C3.985BFC30] The -CA from this website is trusted in Windows and in "D:\\Program Files\\FMEServer\\Utilities\\jre\\lib\\security\\cacerts" Given the partial download and http 200 this tells me that connectivity or certs are not the issue Some history: this workflow/download used to work fine until mid July when we started seeing errors with the attempts to downloads. From 14 – 31 july we saw more and more Error-logs (not all attempts) coming with this message: 2023-07-14 06:15:09| 0.3| 0.1|INFORM|HTTPCaller (HTTPFactory): [1]: Starting HTTP download from 'api.meldingen.utrecht.nl'.

Hi,

 

We have set up a workaround by downloading to a local disk on our FME-server machine. There seemed to be an issue writing data to the network share we used to which connection was instable.

 

All is well now.
