Automation

Hello all,I succesfully connected to an Oracle Weblogic ESB (JMS) with some publications and subscriptions.But...The infrastructure here has a JMS-cluster, meaning there are two url-entries, not one.Connecting to one of the two works fine, but does not have the redundancy intended by having a cluster of two.So, when I put one URL in the Provider URL-field it works, but how can I enter two, for redundancy?This goes for publications and subscriptions. Kind regards,Martin

 part of line intersects to line at the same point .  i would like to create from node , to node , so i used topology builder , but it creates extra nodes that i do not need ,and split the line .the vertex at beginning of the line and vertex at end of line that what i need . i tried using filter touches in candidate out to first topology builder clean no group by id then topology builder clean yes . but the ouput at second topology builder still gives extra nodes .as picture , this method works with crossing lines but when i have part of line as part of another line it creates extra nodes .     the output of topology builder clean yes ,but it creates intersection point that i do not need as split the line in new point   Do we have another transformer instead of topology builder to create from node to node ?or how could i using topology builder properly to create nodes when i have crossing lines and lines touched in as picture . FME 2018  

We have built a lot of automations in FME-Server 2019, all of which send EMails on failure. As it is not possible with FME-Server 2019 to template actions/triggers, we first had built an "Automation-Template" with the Emailer-Action in it and used this to build the automations.But now the password has changed... A template would really be helpful now! Has this idea https://knowledge.safe.com/content/idea/87710/fme-server-automation-templates.html been realized for FMEServer 2020? 

I am studying FME Server 2020.0.0.1 and I have created a Trigger to run with Automations> Build Automation following the exercise in all its steps. I think I am doing everything perfect but when I get to "Star Automation" to run a Schedule process and an Action, the system freezes as if thinking and did not just run. I think that I have done everything correctly, I have also taken all the notes and translated into Spanish keeping the commands in the English language. FME Server is in local mode, on a Windows Pro machine with 16 Gby. of RAM. Can you help me with any information that I may be missing? Sorry if my English is not very good.

  Fme version 2018 I have in the same city two problems .if i use topology builder Assume clean data no group by idthen use network topology builder ,it works good in the first case for first image if i used topology builder clean data yes it works good in the second case and it will give me as output one line that i want but for first image it has no intersection point so when i use network topology calculator ,the network id will not be equal for first image even i tried to use snapper for the line it did not work with mei did too many tries with intersector ,it give me good result at first image but for the second no,it split this line to many parts . then i did topology builder assume data yes as first ,it gives me good result as second image and it consider that as one line that is right no splitting but for first not it assume the line down has no intersection with the line up side   could some one help me what should ,my data is clean and properly noded at the beginning of line

I'm setting up a server app that will allow users to download a CAD file (the app will run a process that converts GIS data to CAD and will produce a .dwg). I'd like to be able to have the download go to the users Windows default downloads folder, or have the user specify where they want the file to go and what they want to name the file. Surprisingly I haven't been able to find much help that is applicable to what I'm looking to do.

HiI've got an error:javax.crypto.IllegalBlockSizeException: Data must not be longer than 245 byteswhen trying to change and save Automation (schedule trigger + 3x sequenced workspaces)FME Server win64, b19643Got an error when trying to set on trigger Start Date&Time - error after Save button click.Any suggestion?

Hi,I am trying to understand the behavior of features etc. in 2020 Automations, primarily the processing order. Below is a quick example of a test I made and it appears that when features come out and trigger an external action, they are processed in parallel (btw, I really miss the debugging features of Workbench where I can see the features move across and preview the data!). Is this observation correct? In my example, "a" was supposed to happen and finish before "b", "c", and "d" are performed. If I made the HTTP call within a workspace, this issue would not happen since it's all serial: features are processed in the order they arrive at each transformer (for the most part).I'm not finding a lot of documentation for creating complex automations where you can control what gets processed based on a previous result, limited looping (ex: allow only 20 loops to prevent endless looping) etc. Looping, which can be done within a custom transfo

I have an automation where dates are created in workspace 1 and passed to workspace 2. I already had published parameters formatted as dates in workspace 2. However, I can't see an option to use the dates from workspace 1 as keys, I only get a calendar selection. It works fine with strings, is there a way to do it with parameters which are dates?

I have FME Server setup to watch a directory where JPGs are dropped by users. When the watcher detects a JPG it runs a workspace that moves all files found to a different folder (post process). FME Server seems to be trying to run the workspace over and over again even though the files were removed by the first run. All attempts after the first fail and another instance is added to the cue. I'm not sure what the cause is. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi All,Does anyone know how I might add a vector layer to the Open Layers example for data delivery in the FME Server Playgroundhttps://playground.fmeserver.com/javascript/data-delivery/open-layers-integration/I would like to drop a line feature on top of the Open Layers basemap so users can use it as a reference when they are selecting their area of interest.

Hi,I am using Automations in FME Server 2019.1 for the first time and I want to add the log file as an attachment to an email.I have tried inputting the following two options into the Emailer but neither worked.Option 1:$(FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_LOG)/engine/current/jobs/*/{job id}.log  Option 2:{job.log} Automation Workflow:As a side note, I would also like to know if it is possible to send multiple attachments with the Emailer in Automations? If so, what would the syntax be for that?Thanks in advance!

I just recently upgraded to FME Server 2020.0.1 and noticed the attachments in the emailer transformer wouldn't allow me to specify a file with the direct path of my pdf in the Resources folder. This worked in previous versions of FME Server.$(FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_DATA)/resources/example.pdfIt did work when I created an attribute with the path and used it as the attachment Source File.Is this change by design, or perhaps a bug? Invalid File Path Valid File Path

I'm a beginner with FME and have only used it for a couple of weeks doing simple tasks in Workbench so my knowledge is not very good. I'm now trying to set up an automatic process for downloading data(zip files) from a Swedish authoritys website: http://extra.lansstyrelsen.se/gis/Sv/lansvisa-geodata/sodermanlands-lan/Pages/default.aspxI have created a FME script for downloading the specific zip (LstD Ädellövinventering) using a HTTPCaller. I only want the script to run when the specific zip file has been updated. Is that possible? And how does that work? I also want to be notified by email if the data failed to download. And maybe let the script run til the download is sucessful if that's a good idea?

I am trying to push a HTTP Request notification to a client machine using a Text Writer with MIME Mode set to 'application\\json'. The issue we're running into is that we get extra "\\" in the 'subscriber_content' section. It appears that the notification is converting the 'subscriber_content' to a string vs. leaving it in the JSON format.It should like this:{"Title":"Test WARS JSON Message","Message":"Simple Message","ActivityCode":[{"ActivityUID":"M336_34687_4592_08000AOH000","ActivityCode":"M336"}]}However, it is coming thru like this in both FME Sever Topics Monitoring and on the client machine receiving the message:{ "workspace": "ITD_WARS_JSON_MessageTest.fmw", "timeRequested": "Wed-02-Oct-2019 01:14:55 PM", "ws_topic": "WARS_JSON_Message", "NumFeaturesOutput": "1", "job

We have a series of workspaces that use a File/Directory Reader, do some magic, then Move the files to a new directory. Stored UNC example: "\\\\projectdir\\My Folder Is Here" The job runs fine in Workbench and when executed manually in FME Server -as the path retains the double quotee bounding. The problem we are finding is how Automations are interpreting the parameter Source Folder and File Pathnames Folder (PATH for simplicity). When the workspace is first added to the Automation, it initially interprets the PATH (UNC) as:''''\\\\projectdir\\My Folder Is Here''''4x single quotes{PATH}4x single quotesThis fails. I override this parameter in the Automation to use bounding double quotes ("\\\\projectdir\\My Folder Is Here") and it runs without issue. However; after this success, the Automation changes the the PATH to:'''' \\\\projectdir\\My Folder is Here ''''4x single quotes and a space{PATH}space and

Hi,I'm trying to setup a script to download a set of zip files from a website that requires logging of username/password. After logging in, I need to select from 3 different zip files from the list. From what I've read so far, it looks HTTPCaller transformer with GET method is what I should use. The 3 zip files that I need to download each week is changing every week with a new # in a filename. How do I use HTTPCaller to select the zip files each week regardless of what number is in the filename?

Hi, I have another FME Server query!I have successfully uploaded an FME workbench to FME Server 2019.1 with a Data Download Service. When I run the workspace in FME Server the Data Download Service works fine.I would also like the Data Download Service to work with a scheduled job which I have set up using Automations. However whenever this scheduled job runs, the Data Download Service does not work and the files are output to the shared directory rather than a zip file to download. Is it actually possible for the Data Download Service to work in a scheduled Automation? I thought maybe I could add the hyperlink to the zip file to an email, but I can't work out how to do that.Thanks

Since a recent upgrade to FME Server 2019.2, I am having trouble inititialising a workspace following receipt of an email. The workspace uses several features from the email that it receives.Ideally, I'd like to just read the email into my workspace as a JSON file that is populated from the Email trigger on the automations page of FME Server. Annoyingly, it seems that I can only populate published parameters with individual attributes of the received email (e.g. Email Subject, Email Body, etc.) rather than bringing the whole email through to a JSON FeatureReader. You can see below that I can't populate the "Email" Parameter with the whole Email, I have to select one of the attributes of the email:Is there a way to populate a JSON FeatureReader with the entirety of the email that FME Server receives, including attachments and metadata?

We've got a real head scratcher here. We are collecting data in Survey123 for ArcGIS and are using FME to listen for the submissions. Everything works perfectly for receiving the JSON. We've taken that JSON and built a workspace around looking at the data as it is pulled from ArcGIS Online without any issue. We even deal with repeats associated with Survey123. Here's the part we can't seem to get past. We have set up all of the attachment parameters and the job clearly pulls the attachments and it saves them in our specified directory. We even have it saving under FME Server in the resources-data directory. So there is no issue with the attachments being pulled. Our issue is we cannot get them to properly attach to the email being sent.  When we remove the attachment parameters from the FMEServerEmailGenerator (Leaving attachments blank) the email comes through perfectly. It contains all of the HTML formatting we set up. But the second we reference the attachment the em

Just out of interest: How does FME detect, that a directory has changed? Does it store the information about the files in the directory at a given time in a file? So that when the directory watch is triggered it can compare the new informations of the files in the directory at that time to that file?Or how else does it keep track?Thanks, Vera

Hello,Trying to combine log files that are created from workspaces that are being executed via an automation/schedules in 2019.2.Any thoughts please? Thanks!
