I have a colleague with FME who wants to batch run a few processes using workspace runners. The first workspace reads multiple Excel spreadsheets and runs successfully when started on its own, not using the workspace runner, but when trying with the workspace runner it fails at the reading stage with no further information on the error - including in the child workspace's log file. I don't have the workspace here to add, but any general ideas as to why this may fail would be helpful - if I can get further details I will do.

Hi @chrisw84 Some more information would be helpful here. If you suspect a bug then please file a support ticket. Here's an article which may be helpful in the mean time: https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/1469/batch-processing-using-the-workspacerunner-1.html
Indeed, you are sure all parameters generated in the parent workspace are passed succesfully to the childs? Does the log say anything where exactly the process failed?
